"The solution is very simple. Management of the platform is so simple that we don't need to have any training to deploy this solution."

"What I find most valuable about this solution, is that the user experience is very simple."
"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."

"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."

"The initial setup could be a bit easier."
"A more user-friendly interface (GUI) can be developed."

For example, their agent for Windows not only can back up the Windows machine, but it can also back up Active Directory for granular restore, SQL servers, Exchange, Oracle, SharePoint, etc. When it comes to Linux, only Oracle databases are supported. There are workarounds, though."
