Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform's most effective feature is quickly recovering virtual instances into a separate environment."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the replication functionality."
"The product offers good stability."
"I find Veeam's customer service and support to be excellent, rating them ten out of ten."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to restore a specific email. For example, if a user has deleted an email and they would like that particular email back we are able to restore it."
"The solution is stable."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"I want an additional copy of my data in the Office cloud and it works."
"It's user-friendly, especially for taking incremental backups."
 

Cons

"They could add more intelligence features in the workflow through automation."
"While Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is a highly convenient product, there is room for improvement in its integration with Microsoft 365."
"Microsoft currently saves only two months of conversation history, and it would be better if Veeam could focus on backing up more than two months of conversation data."
"One major drawback is that Veeam doesn't support migrating data once it's stored in object storage like S3."
"We would like to have a single management console for all of our backups."
"They can provide a dashboard for sizing. This feature might get included in the next release."
"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."
"The solution needs to improve its speed."
"Veeam's performance is inconsistent."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The additional cost is cloud storage, which the public cloud provider charges."
"We have 2000 users and pay about $10,000. It may be a little bit more per year. We have an education institute and may have fewer expenses."
"Its price is a little bit high, but it is a fantastic solution. It is more expensive than NetApp."
"The pricing is expensive."
"This is not a stand-alone product and requires a standard Veeam license for your organization in addition to the cost of the solution."
"From our perspective in South Africa, our biggest challenge is the exchange rate from the South African currency to the US dollar. This makes it a bit pricey for us. However, compared to other backup solutions available, I would rate the pricing at a nine out of ten. For the servers, features, and functionality you get, it's worth the money. Of course, we'd always prefer things to be cheaper, but we also understand that you have to pay for proper functionality. So overall, it's not badly priced at all."
"The cost of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is $19 for one mailbox."
"Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is expensive, and I rate it an eight out of ten."
"The cost of Veeam Backup is $28 per user for one year."
