Managed services with seamless integration and good reliability
Since I have to view everything on the console, the previous application solutions like IBM and Sanavi showed the RPO and RTO status directly. In AWS Disaster Recovery Service, these details are not available, making it difficult to check my replication status. I have to calculate whether my data is replicated to the Adarabad region or not. These features, if available in AWS, would be beneficial.

Reliable with good support but needs a better navigation menu
We use Veeam Data to back up our VMware infrastructure Veeam Data Platform is valuable for its stability and the ability to easily contact support for assistance. The support team provides answers whenever we need them. It is also one of the most scalable backup solutions I've worked with. The…
Daniel Ogola - PeerSpot reviewer
The appliance is ready to integrate with the cloud in cases where the customers have a hybrid or cloud environment.
The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I appreciate the automated orchestration of recovery processes in this solution, especially integration with Route 53 and automatically using Route 53 to switch to a different region directly."
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users."
"What I like about ECR AWS is that it is a fully managed service, so I don't need to manage the underlying infrastructure or worry about scalability in AWS concerning building, maintenance, security, and high availability."
"Customer service is quite helpful."
"The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads."
"Since it is a managed service, I reduce my time to manage infrastructure and applications."
"The strong points are the stability and scalability of the solution, as well as the convenience of it being cloud-based."
"It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests.​"
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is that I can back up the whole machine and then restore it relatively fast."
"The solution's most valuable feature is that its reports are detailed compared to other tools."
"Instant recovery, ease of use, and integrations are some of the valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"It helps with process restoration. With Veeam, we never had backup or restoration issues."
"Veeam Backup Replication is stable I have not had any problems."
"Replication is the most valuable feature."
"We're comfortable using this kind of technology. It's user-friendly."
"The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore."
"The most valuable feature is that it is simple to use."
"I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope."
"Veritas is loaded with features because the appliance is ready to integrate with the cloud in cases where the customers have a hybrid or cloud environment."
"What I like most about Veritas SaaS Backup is that it is easy to work on."
"It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field."
"Some of the tool's best features include an enhanced dashboard and strong security features compared to native Veritas. Our environment is entirely automated."
 

Cons

"In its current state, ECL integrates with CloudWatch for basic logging and monitoring, yet improvements could include more detailed logs for specific actions, like when I perform actions such as push or pull."
"The UI could be a little sleeker."
"The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line."
"The failback could be improved. It should be more intuitive."
"The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"I have not seen any areas that need improvement at this time."
"An improved AWS pricing model is needed."
"I set up a test, deleted the source, and went to fail it back, and it didn't work."
"I face difficulties when trying to deploy Veeam ONE because my active directory restricts some particular rights."
"I only ever found one error. It was when we were doing a file copy job. After using it for ten minutes, it would slow down and cause a bottleneck error."
"The one downside to Veeam is that they don't have a cloud product of their own."
"The pricing model could be improved. It can be made cheaper."
"In future releases, I would like to see the solution provide auto resolution and auto relocation of resources."
"The data duplication should be improved."
"The recovery and integration features of Veeam Backup Replication could improve. For example, all VM integration could improve, such as with Hyper-V and VMware."
"In the future, Veeam should release a hardware backup appliance that can be integrated with their software."
"The technical team wasn't very helpful."
"The implementation could be improved. The server setup is very easy, but some specific client implementation, for example, Oracle or SQL servers, are a little bit complicated. they should offer a bit more assistance with the setup for these particular items."
"The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching."
"In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines."
"Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS."
"Technical support can be improved."
"The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with."
"The usability of the solution isn't the best."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is charging clients $20 to do the DR backups. It is an expensive solution."
"We were happy with the pricing that they gave us."
"I rate the price of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery a six out of ten."
"Where the price adds up, there are CloudEndure licenses, then there is the AWS environment, and finally, there is the AWS storage, so cumulatively, it adds up."
"The pricing is better now that they had come out with the Tier 2 which replicates a little less often. In comparison to what I would have been spending with any other type of solution, the pricing is fair."
"It has saved us money from having to buy hardware for disaster recovery."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"They license us on a per machine basis. We have a set number of machines, which we have licensed.​"
"The price of the solution could improve when comparing it to competitors. The market is very competitive and they should have some discounts or special offers."
"When I did a tech refresh, we took out a subscription for the coming five years."
"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 product is inexpensive."
"The price is reasonable."
"This solution requires a license and the organizations I was involved in were using an enterprise license."
"Veeam ONE is offered at a good price."
"Its pricing is really good."
"I would rate this solution's pricing as five out of five."
"This solution is not cheap and not expensive but priced in the mid-range."
"The program is quite expensive."
"The tool is expensive compared to Veeam."
"SaaS Backup isn't the most expensive solution."
