Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery.
"Centralized management is valuable to us."
"The backup timing and restoring process is great compared to other options."
"The most valuable feature is the extra protection, especially for the backup."
"It is fast and easy for an image-based backup across all platforms."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to back up and recover our production environment from ransomware."
"It is a very fast and reliable backup, which requires less management and restores quickly."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it backs up my systems transparently in the background, and I'm not even conscious of it."
"For local backups, it has options to back up almost any storage. The back can be either a shared folder or anything you want, it's pretty flexible."
"The most valuable features are the Self-Service, and the ability to search the data."
"The solution is highly stable."
"Overall IBM ProtectTIER is a great solution. It is easy to use."
"In terms of stability, I've found it to be very stable. I've walked into the server room when it was at 60 degrees Celcius, and it was still running fine."
"The cataloging is the best feature. It takes millions of frames for the backup. It's incremental, so it takes less time to complete."
"The command-line interface is good."
"Veeam Backup Replication's most valuable features are the ease of use and the interface is very configurable for the users. It's a very familiar solution in Algeria."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the recuperation of the weaker machines."
"Once you get it set up, everything is smooth, and the recovery is excellent."
"Storage Snapshot is a good feature and very safe."
"Good compression when storing data."
"The features I find most valuable are probably the VMware snapshot backups and the Veeam replication. Their replication is very good. It can easily be used for disaster recovery in a number of situations."
"My customers find the backup and recovery ease of use is the most beneficial feature."
"WAN Accelerator helps tremendously with replicating our data because we have a large chunk of data that gets replicated between our two facilities."
"We would always support better pricing."
"Acronis Backup can improve on the virtualization backups because they are not as good as Veeam Backup."
"Acronis Backup isn't scalable at all."
"The technical support of Acronis Backup could improve. They have the depth of knowledge but the speed of the response could be quicker."
"Acronis has some limitations on the cloud side."
"The support and documentation must be improved."
"The UI performance can be slow at times, especially when handling operations like checking backup status or initiating a restore. The response time for these actions could be improved."
"For smaller companies it's a little more challenging to maintain."
"Setting up the system to work with legacy equipment is a bit complex at times."
"I would like the possibility to back up the infrastructure and then replicate it upon on restart, without having to orchestrate the starting of the VM."
"The configuration wizards are still complex and hard to navigate. These should be easier to manage."
"The backup for a large amount of data is slow."
"IBM ProtectTIER could improve by being more user-friendly."
"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."
"Backup speed should be increased, and there should be more functionality."
"The whole graphical user interface is very easy, but the details are hidden deeply and aren't easily visible. You cannot easily see the details and explore or choose the settings. We should be able to easily explore various settings and options. If you can see more details while choosing the settings or setting it up, it helps in getting the software running easily. For example, in Microsoft Office, you can see much more in the interface than in Veeam Backup & Replication. It is a complex software. It is not easy to use, and you must know what to do and where to do. The user manual has more than a thousand pages. They should give some direct information through the software and improve the software. On their website, they can have some videos and step-by-step information to make us come straight to our goals."
"I would like them to move back to host licensing."
"If a single file is corrupt then the restoration of the entire backup will fail."
"The pricing could be improved."
"There is a lot of room for improvement, but the primary issue we have is that it's not built for the cloud."
"All our customers would like a cheaper license and more flexible deployment."
