Efficient data management but struggles with new hardware limitations

Reliable rollback features for smooth IT operations and an easy setup
We are using Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to take backups of shop floor PCs. I use it for clients locally, particularly for critical machines. It is also used globally for server-side backups and includes scheduling features like taking ten backups every Sunday when the factory is closed. This…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In terms of data recovery, both the performance and reliability have been excellent."
"The data application is working well, and it does manage to match data when using the data option."
"The setup is very simple. It takes 15 minutes."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the scalability and the free license of up to ten VMs."
"The solution is easy to use. It's very simple and clients find it very easy to find all objects and things they need with the Veeam Explorer."
"It's user-friendly, especially for taking incremental backups."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 are its intuitive interface, ease of use, and unlimited capacity for backup and restore."
"The most valuable feature is the built-in integration with Office 365, which helps us protect email accounts and servers. We use it on virtual servers on the cloud with Azure, or we can use an agent on physical servers."
"The support offered by both Veeam and our third party supplier is excellent."
 

Cons

"They should include the capability to back up on-premises environments."
"There are limitations with new hardware where it does not support failover and does not support the three-star bank group."
"We would like to have a single management console for all of our backups."
"When you add a new site for backup, it gives you a notice that there is a new site, but the way you select that and configure that could be slightly better. It works, but it is not always very clear. For example, for the URL, you need to hover over the title or the name of the site. You should see it immediately on the screen. It should have a better user interface for selecting what you want to back up so that you get a more clear overview of the sites that are there and the ones that you want to combine in a backup. Its user interface should be more user-friendly. It has a lot of scrolling and doesn't give you a complete overview when needed. That's the main thing why it is not very user-friendly. It should have a better user interface."
"Currently, I'm working for Huawei and they dropped the support for Huawei, so that's an issue for us."
"One major drawback is that Veeam doesn't support migrating data once it's stored in object storage like S3."
"If you use a device to back up with compression and duplication, the solution doesn't work."
"The product cannot back up Active Directory objects while its competitors can. Self-service power enables us to deal with service providers. We provide services for our clients, so having a multi-tenant service portal would be good."
"The solution should have backup integration features, not just concerning mail but also when it comes to such solutions as SharePoint."
"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The SaaS platform offers many benefits; the licensing structure is suitable for monitoring and controlling users' storage space."
"The licensing price is quite high. It's expensive."
"We looked at a few cloud options. When we did the comparison, we found it to be a cost-effective solution, and it included everything."
"It is strictly subscribed on a per-user basis."
"I think it's a fair price. It's around $36 per user, so I think it's a fair price for our customers."
"The solution is not expensive."
"It is an expensive product, and there is an additional cost involved in purchasing hardware. I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"The pricing is middle-of-the-road compared with competing products."
"There is a license required for this solution and we pay annually."
