We performed a comparison between BDRSuite and Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Moving to cloud backups eliminated the need for clients to change USB drives or worry about drives being stored offsite."
"BDRSuite can help organizations save time and money by automating backup and recovery processes and reducing the need for manual intervention."
"Their support is great. I think they work 24 hours a day. I get a very quick turnaround time from them no matter the day or time that I send them an email."
"We have seen ROI. The real return is when something bad happens. All the proof of concept work that we did, all the testing we did, it all panned out for us. We're already seeing a return on that."
"The initial setup is easy and very nice."
"We only use BDRSuite to back up two VMs in our current environment. It helps us with maintenance, monitoring, etc. We are satisfied with BDRSuite so far and plan to add a few more VMs in the future, including Citrix VMs and XenServer."
"The most important features are the backup and the availability of the Universal Explorer. The in-transit compression is great."
"I am very pleased with the compression, especially with some of the larger SQL databases that need backup. The amount of compression is impressive."
"I want an additional copy of my data in the Office cloud and it works."
"Its absolute functionality and intuitiveness are the most valuable features."
"The solution helps reduce our workload."
"It was easy to set up."
"The solution is also easy to manage and work with."
"Once you set it up, it works very well. You do not have to go back to reconfigure it– it is very easy to use"
"The most valuable features of the solution are the scalability and the free license of up to ten VMs."
"I have used the technical support a few times and they've been reasonably helpful."
"The phone [support] system is a negative five on a scale from one to ten, where one is the worst. They wanted me to leave a message. When there is a problem with the product and you call in, you want to talk to somebody or wait to talk to somebody, not leave a message."
"Maybe they can add some features regarding working with the vCenter cluster to be able to have more power over the cluster overall, not just over a single or specific host. Also, I would like some enhancements in technology for the web interface, e.g., some interactive technologies to advance the interface of Vembu. Although the current interface is very good, maybe they can use more advanced technologies for its web development."
"I have had issues with new client registrations. There are frequent connectivity issues to the cloud servers. Multiple times, I have had to prove to support that it wasn’t a problem on my end. It always works out in the end, but it is troubling to have the same issues repeated across different clients. Issues eventually get escalated to the cloud team and are mysteriously resolved with no changes on my end."
"The support is a bit slow in resolving an issue. It takes a long time to recover."
"They said they can support Red Hat Virtualization and we assumed that they support any compatible system but we found we need to do a network backup or a network image, which is not what it said on their website. I have had many discussions with them about where this component is. Initially, I was searching for a component which would back up Red Hat Virtualization. They said they support this in the same way they support Hyper-V and VMware. I haven't found the feature in their portal or in any of their software. They haven't made a special agent for it, in the way they did for Hyper-V."
"The system died twice and it was apparently the result of corrupted disk sectors. I tried to work with tech support to fix it, but they essentially gave up. So twice, I had to rebuild our server."
"There are some limitation in Vembu that can be improved. When you take the backup from any server, the full incremental backup is limited. For example, if you run a weekly full backup and monthly backup, they cannot be run at the same time. I should not have to create a new job, but in this scenario, I am creating two jobs. The limitation is created because if I select monthly backup, then I cannot select weekly backup."
"It's not that stable yet. Every two weeks, my backup will stop and I have to check it."
"The solution could improve scalability, both in terms of more storage and users. These two attributes are quite important when you talk about good scalability."
"It requires quite an amount of infrastructure. You have to set up the instance, and you need to know quite a bit about Microsoft 365 authentication. For some customers, it is a challenge."
"They could include WAN acceleration to compress the traffic to make things faster."
"Currently, I'm working for Huawei and they dropped the support for Huawei, so that's an issue for us."
"While there really is nothing wrong with the product some small improvements in the interface could make it even easier to use."
"Veaam Backup can be confusing for customers when they start trying to understand how to use the product in multiple environments."
"They should improve the backup and restoration time."
"Some additional training materials would be helpful."
