Pros
"The most valuable feature of Altaro VM Backup is its ability to backup and restore various types of data, including Active Directory, application servers, and SQL Server databases.""We frequently use the granular restore option for when our users accidentally delete files or to recover emails from mailboxes. We have found that to be a must-have feature and it comes with the solution at no extra cost.""The ease of use of the solution is its most valuable feature. The interface is also excellent.""This solution is stable.""Excellent compression and deduplication with off-site WAN backup included.""Ability to restore to any host.""It is an excellent product. It is easy to deploy, stable, and fast. Their support is excellent.""The ability to test the backups without having to manually mount the VHDs after restore allows us to check the integrity of the backups."

"The most valuable data protection features in Veeam are encryption and error handling.""The platform has a useful disaster recovery feature.""The solution's instant recovery feature is good and allows you to capture and copy individual files.""It provides a much better user experience compared to other vendors. It works faster as well.""Continuous Data Protection is a game-changing technology.""The most valuable aspect is its reliability in recovering any replaceable data in the event of server issues in a production environment.""When it comes to service cases, I would choose Veeam Data Platform over Commvault because restoring from Commvault can be time-consuming due to filtering tasks. Veeam Data Platform, on the other hand, offers a much simpler and faster restore process.""The solution is quite easy to configure."

Cons
"Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful.""The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer.""Improvement areas for Altaro VM Backup include enhancing backup and deduplication solutions for continuous operation and offering an all-in-one solution for hardware backup.""Replication is not fast, the GUI could be more user-friendly, and technical support is lacking in Iran.""The cloud backup and VMware support (now available in the latest releases), could do with some improvement.""It would be nice to be able to recover the items to their original location.""If you look into the performance of a virtual machine and you look to the performance of the physical machine, the correlation between these is totally unclear.""The initial set up was complex, and I was not able to do the set up myself."

"Granular-level backup is difficult.""There might be room for improvement at the plugin level, specifically concerning application plugins.""The price could be optimized, and I am still waiting for support for physical hardware. However, it is currently easy to back up and restore environments with this software.""Setting up for my case was completely different. There were some product-level bugs that caused a lot of challenges for Veeam Data Platform. So, it took a while.""The product must improve its performance.""SureBackup is sometimes a bit difficult to use.""Veeam's support services need improvement.""The solution's pricing may be expensive compared to other products."
