Backup operations have become reliable and reporting now simplifies hybrid cloud protection
Veeam Data Platform has Veeam Enterprise Manager as well as Veeam ONE as valuable features, which allow us to generate various kinds of reports that are required for the customer. Instant VM Recovery is a good feature of the high-speed recovery features in Veeam Data Platform, and Continuous Data Protection (CDP) is also a good feature. Ransomware protection is a good feature added in Veeam Data Platform from version 12 onwards, and the ability to create immutable repositories is also a good feature in Veeam. The analytics part of Veeam Data Platform is a good solution because I have worked on various backup technologies such as EMC NetWorker and NetBackup. However, I have not used the analytical parts currently but will check it out. Streamlining processes as well as saving money are benefits that Veeam Data Platform provides for the end user, as it allows for application-aware backups and database backups without the need for various kinds of licenses that other backup software requires. Veeam offers socket-based licenses, instance-based licenses, and capacity-based licenses, which is a great feature.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Hornet offers unlimited space and time for backups as long as the subscription is continued."
"Our recovery time was reduced from many hours to a few minutes."
"Integration with VMware is excellent with very granular recovery."
"It's a pretty complete product."
"The solution's best features are its ease of use and replication, which works fine."
"It is very easy to implement and by far a better product than any I have seen so far."
"Its ease of use for restore is really good, and for Exchange, the Exchange Active Directory is great."
"No time has to be spent on debugging backups."
"Veeam Backup Replication's snapshotting and cloning are the most valuable features."
 

Cons

"The price might be limiting for some clients in Latin America."
"I prefer a software backup solution that allows me to easily define my origin data, including data files, folders, and virtual machines."
"The price is slightly higher than its competitors."
"I think Veeam needs to improve the file installation process, as well as more technical things like snapping feature issues."
"I would like to see agents for backup of physical servers, as only agents for Windows servers have this tool."
"The user experience can be better, as it is one of the areas with shortcomings in the product."
"Cross-hypervisor replication can be improved."
"Technical support is not so good: Communication issues due to language differences and slow responses."
"Veeam Backup Replication could improve by making the monitoring system free. If I would like to have any monitoring system by Veeam I have to purchase it. It should come free with the solution. They should provide a monitoring system to make the work easier and smooth."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is an affordable solution."
"Veeam Data Platform's pricing is affordable."
"I find the pricing to be okay."
"Veeam products are less expensive than other products. The licensing costs are low and they're pretty affordable."
"Its software solution has a fee."
"Customers require a perpetual license for the product. However, along with the license, they must also subscribe to the support service for one year or three years under a separate contract."
"They have a free edition that can back up up to 10 VMs or physical servers. Small and medium businesses can use this edition until they can afford to get a license, and after they get a license, they just activate it on the same console. That's the amazing thing about it."
"The pricing is reasonable."
