It provides a stable SAP environment, but deployment does require someone with experience.
It offers High Availability for many applications, including Oracle and SAP environment In my last job, it provided a great SAP environment that was stable and running on Veritas Cluster. I've used it for six years. It's not so easy in some cases, and you will need some experience. There were…

The solution can be used for DR testing and allows running an infinite number of full backups
When we consider the backup model of other products like Veeam, their incremental backup just adds to their first full backup. With Veritas System Recovery, we have the option to run an infinite number of full backups according to our requirements. With my cloud version of Veritas System Recovery, I can have a full backup every month, which is not possible with any other vendors. Other vendors will claim that the original copy is strong enough, but the customers have to ensure that bugs won't cause any problems in the future. However, with Veritas System Recovery, you can run a full backup this month and again run a full backup on the first or thirtieth day of the next month.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It integrates well with other solutions."
"The installation was straightforward."
"It has a user-friendly interface."
"The tool helps automate system recovery. The solution is most useful in scenarios involving restoration to a different environment. For instance, when migrating from a physical server to a virtual one, the tool facilitates conversion."
"The solution has helped reduce my company's cost by around 50 to 60 percent."
"Offers good recovery quickly."
"You can back up the whole image."
"With Veritas System Recovery, we have the option to run an infinite number of full backups according to our requirements."
"The solution captures the system state, so when we restore the system, it will be restored to the state it was in at the time of the backup."
 

Cons

"It could be more stable and more secure."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The pricing could be cheaper."
"The tool's deployment could be easier. The deployment itself isn't the issue; rather, the problem lies in configuring policies and testing everything before it's ready. We invest a significant amount of time in preparing for various scenarios. However, we often encounter situations where changes have occurred since our initial preparations. This can render the automation less valuable."
"Veritas System Recovery’s pricing and local support need some improvement."
"It needs an easier interface."
"Veritas System Recovery Manager offers some manager solutions, but there is room for improvement."
"We faced issues with recovery and restoration."
"Lacks the ability to protect the database snapshot."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our clients pay for licensing on a yearly basis."
"My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There is no need to pay any additional fees apart from the licensing costs attached to the solution."
