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.

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."
"I can't think of any improvements yet for Veeam because they are very good. It integrates very well with Microsoft applications. It is very easy to integrate. Micro Focus can also integrate but it's more complex. You have to know the product very well to be able to integrate. While Veeam, it's very user-friendly. You don't need to have certifications or anything to work on Veeam."
"The solution offers a very straightforward setup."
"I don't have to go back and forth between different applications to get the report I need."
"The most valuable feature is the instant recovery."
"The most valuable aspects are the latest features in version 12.1, which introduced enhanced security features."
"I think that the scalability is very good. We can't compare it."
"I'm pleased with the ability to search for documents; it's very useful."
"Storage Snapshot is a good feature and very safe."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement would be expanding its capabilities beyond Azure-specific backups."
"Veeam Backup Replication could improve by having better integration with the cloud. Additionally, they do not have direct integration to S3 or Azure storage for the backups of the VMs. This feature would be beneficial because we have to go through the scalable repository which I do not like."
"Granular-level backup is difficult."
"The pricing could be improved."
"It would be better if the solution presented the number of servers and the success rate on the dashboard."
"Sometimes the solution give reports that are confusing and has errors. So the integration of the full solution with the resolution of resolving the error should be added in the next release.The solution should also provide more customization, automation, better documentation."
"Expanding its compatibility to include Linux would represent a significant advancement."
"The DR component should be part of the comprehensive package, not separate."
"Veeam Data Platform lacks cyber security tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We use the community edition of the Veeam Backup Replication and it is a software-based license. It can be a little expensive."
"We purchase a license annually."
"Veeam is more reasonably priced than some competing products."
"Its pricing is really good."
"Since pricing is per socket, it is not expensive to add capacity as you go along."
"We dont have the exact licensing costs, but we pay for a comprehensive service package that includes technical support, cloud services, and data center services. There may be additional costs beyond the standard license, but I'm not sure about the specifics. However, I believe the yearly cost is around five thousand dollars."
"They could work at providing a better price."
"The price of the solution could improve when comparing it to competitors. The market is very competitive and they should have some discounts or special offers."

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…
