Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The speed and the ease of the initial setup are both good. It is not complex."
"One of the features I find most valuable, is the good technical support."
"It's very easy to work with and it's very reliable."
"The user interface is good and it is very easy to use."
"The good thing about Veeam is that its initial setup and usage are straightforward."
"It integrates easily with third-party solutions compared to other vendors."
"I have found the backup call feature very good."
"One of the best things about Veeam is that they have consistently improved on themselves since they started. Personally, I've been using Veeam since around 2013/2014 when it was only supporting certain hypervisors such as HyperV, and since then it has become truly mature enterprise-level software with a lot of versatility."
"Veeam is highly scalable. In one scenario, we started with 2,000 users and scaled up to 24,000."
"The most valuable feature is the instant recovery."
"The product has to be more mature, like to be another six to eight months on the market. A lot of maturity needs to be incorporated."
"The interface and documentation need to improve."
"Additional executive summary reports for the entire infrastructure would be a nice to have."
"I would like to see more broad support for other applications such as databases, or other operating systems."
"I would prefer it if the backup console did not require use of a specified program but rather that it could be opened from any website."
"They can improve the features and Veeam Enterprise Manager. The interface and features are kind of limited. It would be good if they can provide more features and a better interface. For example, if I want to provide certain users with the privilege to back up and restore and do day-to-day tasks, I cannot do it in the current version. It is like you either give everything to everyone or no user can have access to anything. In version 9, a lot of features were missing, and it wasn't clear. Version 10 is easier from the communication perspective, and the disk backup option is very clear."
"If a single file is corrupt then the restoration of the entire backup will fail."
"I think Veeam needs to improve the file installation process, as well as more technical things like snapping feature issues. Sometimes during backup, when it's taking the scan snaps on the ESXi, it started and didn't remove the snapshot from there, which consumed storage on the EXSi. It could be improved with more technical depth. The response time for Veeam's technical support could also be improved."
"The more features the solution has the more complex it can be to set up. Veeam Backup & Replication can be complex."
"Veeam Backup & Replication should include a cloud solution."
