Easy to setup, good support and stable product
When we started, we used Acronis for both cloud and on-premises backups. Protege was a reliable solution, and the cloud-focused approach is well-suited for our current needs. If you require both cloud and on-premises backup capabilities, Acronis is a more comprehensive solution. For solely cloud-based backups, Protege is a solid option.

Reliable with good support but needs a better navigation menu
We use Veeam Data to back up our VMware infrastructure Veeam Data Platform is valuable for its stability and the ability to easily contact support for assistance. The support team provides answers whenever we need them. It is also one of the most scalable backup solutions I've worked with. The…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Since it is on the cloud, it is a very stable solution."
"One valuable feature of Veeam ONE for backup management is its dashboard, which offers a comprehensive view of backups and other essential data."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution's recovery process is very smooth."
"The product could be improved if they wrote more PowerShell scripts for controlling Veeam."
"The integration of Veeam Backup Replication is very good."
"I think Veeam ONE is a good product to supervise and monitor infrastructure and for backup purposes."
"The solution is really easy and straightforward to use."
"If you have a lot of central sites and remote sites, you can easily set up the replication and make it easier."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement would be expanding its capabilities beyond Azure-specific backups."
"It would be useful if we could integrate our on-premise VM solution with the Azure workload backup from the existing console. This would assist our customers in reducing the cost of hardware."
"The product must be able to perform different types of backups."
"Unfortunately, the software only runs on Windows."
"Veeam currently lacks features for backing up to network-attached storage. Veeam Backup & Replication agents do not support S3 storage. Only Veeam Backup & Replication server supports S3 storage."
"While the Veeam Backup Replication tool can mostly back up all the data in the environment, the AIX from IBM backup capabilities nowadays could stand improvement as they are not featured on a single pane of glass."
"In the next release, I would like replication directly to the cloud to be included."
"The navigation of menus can be difficult to find what you're looking for sometimes."
"The patching can be quite difficult at times."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Veeam has a ten-license package gives you two physical and two virtual servers you can use on any endpoint."
"Room for improvement is actually more in the way of licensing. The really good and useful features are in the Enterprise plus edition, and that one is really expensive."
"The solution provides flexible licensing options."
"Compared to other enterprise solutions, Veeam Backup & Replication generally offers a competitive price point. However, there has been a noticeable and concerning increase in pricing, particularly in the year 2023. The rate of price hikes has been significant, with prices escalating three times during the first quarter of the year. This trend indicates a substantial shift in the pricing structure, which may have implications for customers and their budgeting considerations."
"If you have Veeam Backup and Replication with the essential license then this solution is free. If you were to purchase Veeam ONE by itself it is priced cheaper than competitors."
"Its pricing is really good."
"The licensing is based on the number of cores you have in your ESX or Hyper-V environment."
"The solution's pricing is cheap."

VMware SRM vs. Veeam vs. Zerto
Disaster recovery planning is something that seems challenging for all businesses. Virtualization in addition to its operational flexibility, and cost reduction benefits, has helped companies improve their DR posture. Virtualization has made it easier to move machines from production to…
