Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."Our customers can backup to local storage and they can back up or replicate to the cloud."
"The licensing model is very good."
"The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are instant restore, antivirus, and ransomware protection. Additionally, the documentation is good."
"The interface is easy to use. They keep on adding new features. Acronis recently added multi-platform support."
"For me, the tool proved most valuable in scenarios where it offered easy setup, fast backups, and recognition of SQL logs on virtual machines."
"The web-based interface makes it easy to use."
"Centralized management is valuable to us."
"The setup is very easy."
"The multi-tenancy is the most valuable feature for us because it's the only software that is fully multi-tenant and that has all the features we need to provide to all our tenants. It provides us with advanced features for MySQL and Oracle, among other platforms"
"The expanse of the decoys that they have is valuable. They cover everything on the corporate side that you would think of, such as Windows, Linux, and even applications like SAP. They also go into the OT environment and emulate OT devices as well."
"The use of hyperscale storage hardware and Commvault software has allowed us to create a large storage pool and achieve significant savings in our back-end storage costs."
"The most important feature is that everything can be controlled using a single console."
"I'm a big fan of the reporting. You can build your own reports; it's very customizable. You can have individual reports going to groups of people or individuals. You can have them go out multiple times a day. It's basically a free-for-all as far as reporting goes. If anybody wants a specific job report every day, you can build it, schedule it, and have it go out and never touched it again. It's pretty nice."
"The solution is easy to use and the duplication is quite good."
"Scalability, as well as stability, are a couple of important parts of this solution."
"It's very easy to set up the storage across all platforms. This allows us to be dynamic and change on-the-fly."
"The WAN accelerator feature has been the most valuable for me. That feature reduced the time needed to complete the task from 25 days to less than a week! This is compared with the original tools used: ntbackup, robocopy and Windows Server Backup."
"Get only one interface to manage all backup sites, secure them with replication, and manage outside LTO media."
"I have found one of the most valuable features to be the integrity of the backups."
"The solution can work for companies no matter the size or scope."
"Veeam Backup Replication has good performance and can do location-to-location backups. Additionally, it is user-friendly and easy to manage."
"This is very user-friendly."
"One of the most valuable features of Veeam is that the restoration is easy and reliable."
"It has helped us to protect our IP address and critical information."
"This might be a lack of understanding on my part, but it's difficult to purge old backups."
"I would like to have more hardware space. It would make it better. I would like to have two more terabytes."
"The new version has anti-malware and software management features, but these features should be enhanced. It is working as an exclusive solution along with the backup and recovery."
"Acronis Backup can improve the latency when the file size is larger, we have had issues. Additionally, they could allow more flexibility when searching for information and I cannot download the CBIS backup copy information which could be made easier."
"Acronis Backup isn't scalable at all."
"When an error occurs, the information is not always easy to understand and these messages should be made more clear."
"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."
"I believe that the next release should be easier to configure as this one is difficult to configure even the easiest of tasks."
"The deployment process should be simplified because it is not something that just anybody can do."
"Reduce the complexity for better understanding of the reports. There are a lot of variables in which you can get confused while elaborating on reports."
"It does not have an easy deployment. The deployment is not something that just anybody can go in and deploy."
"I think the one thing that could be improved is the customer experience. The interface should be more user friendly."
"The initial setup was complex."
"It takes a lot of technical expertise to implement. Commvault could increase the training it provides to customers and partners."
"Training."
"I would like to see a more user-friendly GUI."
"I would like to have them come up with more robust features when it comes to individual endpoint protection."
"My biggest issue with Veeam at the moment is how the backup reports are displayed. We use the SolarWinds integration to generate consolidated reports for monitoring purposes, but we aren't getting all the available data shown to us in the way that we want."
"In terms of what can be improved, I would say they could add automations for disaster migrations and for reverse replication. Overall, they need more automation."
"Physical backup is always where room for improvement could be but Veeam has always stated they are not going in that direction."
"The remote SQL server has had multiple sizing issues within the logs and SQL backup space and sharing with other database apps."
"The parallel backup process from the Veeam server to Veeam has some limitations. The number of parallel backups should be increased and the compressional is very low. Sometimes it is half or one-third, but other backup solutions' compression levels are very high."
"The price can be better."
"In the future, I would like to see better support for direct backup to tape."
