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."The most important features are the backup and the availability of the Universal Explorer. The in-transit compression is great."
"The initial setup is easy and very nice."
"The best thing about it is that it has been adaptable to our business model. We are in industrial networking, and they were adaptable to give us offline installers and offline licenses. That has been the biggest thing. They also allow us to order the licenses on a perpetual basis."
"The main benefit is that it's inexpensive. We get a lot for a little bit of money. I'm very happy with the savings and with the features. It allows me to do everything I need."
"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 best part of BDRSuite is how user-friendly it is and how it does not require any maintenance after the initial setup."
"If we do a backup of a machine at some point and the server crashes, then we can restore this machine to a different server with the same settings and setup. We will just have to tweak one or two things, like the IP. Then, it is ready to go."
"Their technical support is very good to work with, as they are able to propose alternate solutions to problems that work well for us."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is the backups, we do not want to lose any files. Each one of the files is updated on a regular long-term basis and kept together in the Microsoft cloud-only."
"The product offers good stability."
"Backup and replication are the most valuable features."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Backup for Office 365 are the ease of use and instant back and restore."
"It is very easy to integrate. You can do it very fast."
"It was easy to set up."
"I have used the technical support a few times and they've been reasonably helpful."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the scalability and the free license of up to ten VMs."
"BDRSuite could improve support for XenApp Citrix Backup."
"There's a feature that does syncing with AWS Cloud backup online. It's not that straightforward to get it set up."
"It's not that stable yet. Every two weeks, my backup will stop and I have to check it."
"The response time of the support could be improved a little bit. Sometimes, I need to wait for two or three hours to get support. With VMware, we can get urgent support in an hour. Other than that, I'm pretty good with BDRSuite."
"There were issues with the implementation because of incompatibilities between the tool implementation and our current VMware installation. So, it was an implementation issue that doesn't allow me to use it for VMware backup in the manner in which we would want to use it. That wasn't clear from the evaluation stage nor was it clear from the first utilization of it because it worked in the environment that it was being evaluated in. Based on that, we went ahead and made the purchase of the full implementation. At that point, it became clear that there would be limitations in that implementation that could not be overcome without doing upgrades to the production environment."
"The process is a bit cumbersome when you remove an agent, delete that job, and add the agent to the same server. Even though the agent is already installed in that server, the system does not recognize it. We have to uninstall the current agent, restart the server, install the push agent - a new agent - and then restart the server. I think they should try to avoid that."
"We do a lot of internal automation, so the Vembu API definitely has some gaps. The Vembu API could definitely use some improvement. We do rely a lot on automation outside of just the regular interface. We've noticed that the Vembu GUI is good, but we do leverage the APIs for a lot of stuff, and there's definitely some room for improvement there."
"One thing that I reported with the backups: When there are accentuated characters in a path, then we can't restore documents into a folder. There is a bug with the restoration and restoring files with accentuated characters in the path. Hopefully, they have repaired this because otherwise we will restore files and find out that they are not there."
"The solution needs to improve its speed."
"Veeam's performance is inconsistent."
"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."
"The solution could improve by having the ability to back up without an agent installed on the system."
"They need to enable the encryption of backups so that nobody can gain access unless they have encryption details."
"Currently, I'm working for Huawei and they dropped the support for Huawei, so that's an issue for us."
"The customer service and support response time can be improved."
"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem."
