We have also been inquiring about new app and functionality via the Marketplace that was teased months back but has yet to come to fruition."
"For Oracle DBs, we have observed a few bugs. This can be done better."
"Expanding its compatibility to include Linux would represent a significant advancement."
"The price could be optimized, and I am still waiting for support for physical hardware. However, it is currently easy to back up and restore environments with this software."
"Veeam's support services need improvement."
"Veeam Data Platform needs to improve data backup for Oracle admin. It needs to improve its stability."
"It would be nice if the solution scanned for malware in the backups."
