Stable solution with a wider boost functionality, helping us eliminate the tape backup requirements
We use the solution to protect the applications running in the cloud or on-premises. Its wider boost functionality helps us eliminate the tape backup requirements The solution's most valuable feature is throttling the applications as per the bandwidth. Using it, we can adapt a method to work on…

We are using Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to take backups of shop floor PCs. I use it for clients locally, particularly for critical machines. It is also used globally for server-side backups and includes scheduling features like taking ten backups every Sunday when the factory is closed. This…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's support team is excellent."
"My customer has Dell EMC CloudBoost integrated with all of their other Dell products. It integrates well."
"Technical support in Veeam is good."
"I want an additional copy of my data in the Office cloud and it works."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the replication functionality."
"I have used the technical support a few times and they've been reasonably helpful."
"We have backups for Microsoft 365 because it is in the account of the complete tenant compromise. If we lose access to a tenant or all of the client's data gets Microsoft 365, and they lose access to all of their emails, OneDrive, and Teams data, then at least we have an off-site copy that is not linked to their Microsoft side of things."
"The most valuable feature is the data backup functionality."
"The product offers good stability."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, with ten being easy."
 

Cons

"They should eliminate the tape-out function from the solution."
"The pricing model is unnecessarily confusing and could be simplified."
"They should include some more options to send alerts in existing monitoring software."
"If one administrator wants to delete something in 365, another admin must approve it."
"If clients are backing up onto tape, Veeam's newest versions don't really deal with that."
"In some instances, a customer is not necessarily backing up Microsoft 365. For instance, they might be backing up a large Oracle database. It would be nice if they could tweak it to compress the file, so it's easier to transfer a huge file."
"This solution does provide the option to choose a different target of storage."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by adding more features with Microsoft teams. We have many files that we are working on with Microsoft teams and there should be more integration and features."
"They could include WAN acceleration to compress the traffic to make things faster."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Dell EMC CloudBoost could be reduced, it is expensive."
"Its cost depends upon the amount of data that needs to be protected."
"The cost of Veeam Backup is $28 per user for one year."
"The cost is a bit on the high side."
"The solution is not expensive."
"Its cost is pretty high. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."
"This is not a stand-alone product and requires a standard Veeam license for your organization in addition to the cost of the solution."
"It is an expensive product, and there is an additional cost involved in purchasing hardware. I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"It is strictly subscribed on a per-user basis."
"The pricing is middle-of-the-road compared with competing products."
