Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The customer service and support are excellent."
"Acronis schedules in the background and does incremental images so it doesn’t take forever to backup."
"The reliable tool allows for quick restoration from backup copies, meaning I do not have to reload Windows or programs."
"The malware feature is most valuable."
"Simple and stable."
"The solution just works consistently. I never have issues with it."
"It most valuable features are seeding and faster backups over small links."
"In terms of most valuable features, we are mostly using the Cloud Connect feature. It is flexible because you can use it on-prem and on cloud."
"Veeam Data Platform manages and protects data across multiple cloud environments amazingly."
"One valuable feature of Veeam ONE for backup management is its dashboard, which offers a comprehensive view of backups and other essential data."
"Pricing is fairly reasonable and not overly expensive."
"I enjoy the ability to quickly search for VMs through the Veeam console."
 

Cons

"The configuration needs improvement."
"I originally intended to use Acronis for cloud backup, however, the cloud backup had major problems."
"I had a couple of false positives, but that’s it."
"I originally intended to use Acronis for cloud backup, however, the cloud backup had major problems. After struggling with it for about two years, I switched to Carbonite and have not gone back."
"I like the Acronis backup solutions on the block-based part of backups or snapshots. That's a nice functionality that Veeam doesn't have."
"SureBackup is sometimes a bit difficult to use."
"The stability could be better, specifically in the cloud."
"The improvement we would like to see is the option to scale Veeam Data up in smaller sections rather than large sections, which requires paying much more."
"It would be nice to see more affordable training options for individuals who want to enhance their skills. Some people I know have been interested in training courses, but they found them too expensive."
"Sometimes Veeam is not that effective when it comes to legacy environments."
"The virtual sandboxes seem complex to setup, so I have not invested time in leveraging this feature. It would be nice if this feature was more user-friendly."
"The endpoint protection console is not centralized."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is more cost-effective than some of the other solutions, but a lot of that comes down to the fact that we're a reseller. So, depending upon the deal, we do negotiate different price points for different customers. The price varies depending upon the size of the customer, the size of the deal, and the discounts we can negotiate."
"It's a proper price, as it isn't an issue for what Veeam Backup & Replication is giving us. Obviously, we are paying licensing for our physical VMware environment. It also depends on how the VMware environment is on the side. We have a few very big nodes. So, we need a few licenses and maybe if people had more nodes and sockets and each node was managing less information, machine supplies could be different."
"The price is slightly higher than its competitors."
"We use the community edition of the Veeam Backup Replication and it is a software-based license. It can be a little expensive."
"The product is expensive."
"We are happy with the pricing and we pay for licensing on a subscription basis."
"I would rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten. The licensing costs are yearly."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the price a five."
