Simply provides single-vendor, consistent cloud-based backup
I would say that the room for improvement comes under the heading of performance. We backup a lot of information in a 24-hour period. It works fine. But there's always room for improvement on that. If they would make my 24-hour backup cycle window, from start to finish, a 15-hour or a 12-hour backup window, I'd be that much happier. Just to be clear, there's no time consumption on the part of my staff. This runs fully automatically. But the concern is that when you do backups, you want your backup window to be as narrow as possible. Actually, our backup window is 20 hours, and it gets done in 20 hours. Because, the longer it lingers, the more of a window there is for a disaster to knock you down.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most important features is that it provides consistent cloud-based backup."
"I like the incremental backups and their failover."
"The really amazing feature about Veeam Agent is that when you're using the central deployment model, you can actually use the instant VM recovery feature, which is really a pain point that I find some days."
"The user interface is good."
"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."
"The initial setup and deployment are easy. It's straightforward."
"The most valuable feature is the instant restore option."
"It's stable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to pick up individual files."
 

Cons

"We backup a lot of information in a 24-hour period. It works fine. But there's always room for improvement on that."

"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."
"There is a compatibility issue with HCI."
"In the next version, I would like to see an increase in the locations online. I have found that other products have good pickup location."
"In new releases, I hope they can support Oracle cloud."
"It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform."
"It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network."
