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.

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its integration with Veeam Backup & Replication console."
"The ease of use for the graphical interface and the ease of installation are the most valuable features of this solution."
"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."
"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."
 

Cons

"We backup a lot of information in a 24-hour period. It works fine. But there's always room for improvement on that."
"One problem in Veeam Agent for Linux is that you can't use your license for all your machines because you don't have a virtual machine, so if you're going to add machines and scale, you'd need to pay extra."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
"Technical support could be improved."
"We are currently waiting for the continuous backup process."
"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."
"The price of Veeam Agent for Linux could be reduced."
"Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."
"The integration needs improvement."
