Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."My customer has Dell EMC CloudBoost integrated with all of their other Dell products. It integrates well."
"The solution's support team is excellent."
"It's simple to use."
"The really amazing feature about Veeam Agent is that when you're using the central deployment model, you can actually use the instant VM recovery feature, which is really a pain point that I find some days."
"The solution is very user-friendly and has an easy to use interface. We can manage it easily. It allows for a simple backup."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its integration with Veeam Backup & Replication console."
"The most valuable feature is the instant restore option."
"The initial setup and deployment are easy. It's straightforward."
"The technical support is good."
"They should eliminate the tape-out function from the solution."
"They could be more customer-friendly."
"I would like to be able to install Veeam directly to Linux instead of having to go through a Windows server."
"It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side. 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."
"There isn't much to improve. They just need to follow the trend or the development of other Linux products. Follow in terms of making the product compatible with new versions of Linux. They just need to include as many versions for Linux as possible."
"One problem in Veeam Agent for Linux is that you can't use your license for all your machines because you don't have a virtual machine, so if you're going to add machines and scale, you'd need to pay extra."
"There is a compatibility issue with HCI."
"Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
