"Veeam Backup & Replication is a great alternative to what is out there. Some of the backups just allow an agent backup to the cloud. You can back up a thousand different ways, but this is a great way to keep a customer and a company in compliance in that they've got their data secure onsite and offsite. The data being transferred to the NAS at the customer's location and also the data being sent to the cloud is encrypted in transit and it's also encrypted at rest so that nobody is going to be able to hack into that. No one will have the keys to do that."
"It's streamlined the backup and recovery for my customers in the sense that it has an easy management console that's easy to set up any type of instant recovery."

"There is always room for improvement. The compression ratio should be improved as well as the efficiency."
"The deduplication feature could be improved by changing to global deduplication."
"It needs to offer an automatic check for backups."
"Device backup could be improved."
"It's hard to answer because managing cloud storage in our version could be better, but now that they have improved it in the recent version, I cannot say it's a better point because I know it should be already fixed."
"The licensing models, from a reseller's perspective, could be better."
"I would like to see the licensing model improved. They have recently changed the model and have made it more complicated."
