Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Service Level Management (SLM) rules engine stands out due to its flexibility and customization capabilities, making it an invaluable tool for tailoring processes to our specific needs."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager maintains the historical data and it's easy for us to analyze the trends and patterns and fix them accordingly."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to be able to monitor Kubernetes."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager's installation is pretty easy."
"The feature that I have found most valuable in ManageEngine Applications Manager is its dashboard."
"ITSM is a valuable feature, it complies with the requirements in Pakistan."
"The anomaly detection feature helps with maintaining the system's health. It is regarding our IT incident center."
"It is way easier to take backup with Veeam Backup & Replication than the regular ones."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"I like the backup and backup copy features."
"Very user-friendly and easily recoverable."
"The most valuable feature is the continuous backup."
"Veeam Data Platform is valuable for its stability and the ability to easily contact support for assistance."
"For virtualization it's perfect."
"I think Veeam ONE is a good product to supervise and monitor infrastructure and for backup purposes."
 

Cons

"They could probably rearrange the UI so that it would be easy for people who are new to the Application Manager to configure things."
"The agent often crashes when there is too much load on the application side. If a sudden storm of data comes in, the agent crashes down most of the time."
"The dashboards in the interface need a lot of work."
"The information provided by ManageEngine is not deep-dive like IBM and CA provide."
"Lacks an SIEM solution which can be found in other products."
"The problem is that implementation requires a significant amount of mapping effort."
"I would like the solution to improve the ability to track services."
"One area of improvement is the dashboard should be more readable and available."
"Creating reports is a bit difficult, and you have to spend some time on it."
"When in a domain, the virus can easily attack the Veeam server, something which happened to us."
"It would be preferable if they could introduce a complete Linux version instead of relying solely on Microsoft for management. There should be a unified integration of all their products. Currently, there are various products like cloud backup and others that exist separately. It would be better if they could create a single comprehensive platform or product, as opposed to having disparate products that lack proper communication between them."
"There is always some room for improvement, especially with some of the different technologies such as DB2. Commvault has a DB2 agent, but Veeam still doesn't have it. We have to use the universal one for it."
"I have a problem with the VM. When we started doing a backup, it takes a snapshot for our virtual machines, but when we try it two or three times, in some cases, our virtual machines go to a consolidated state. I don't know why this problem happens. But I still think Veeam is a top-ranking solution."
"I have found that the reporting could improve in its structure."
"The replicating from Veeam Backup Replication to Azure cloud could be improved."
"The implementation of the features can be improved. Currently, there is no segregation of duty. Normally, any backup software or client service software is implemented in a way where one person is responsible for the implementation of the server, and one is responsible for the client, but Veeam Backup & Replication is not implemented in that way. Therefore, restores don't work like that. The backup guys have to do the restores, which is not a good thing. Its pricing should also be improved. It is quite expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of this solution is not too bad, although it could be cheaper considering what you're getting for the price."
"The solution is noted for its cost-effectiveness, a crucial consideration for potential users."
"Its price is good."
"The solution's licensing costs are yearly."
"The licensing costs for ManageEngine Applications Manager are around $1,200 per year. For additional monitors, you have to pay extra."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"ManageEngine Applications Manager has reasonable pricing. It's more affordable than other solutions in the market. My company has an instance-based license for ManageEngine Applications Manager. You can purchase a yearly subscription or a perpetual license. The standard license covers most features, but you can still have some paid add-ons."
"The annual licensing depends on the number of monitors you have connected. Once you get to two hundred monitors you can see the price reflect."
"We are happy with the pricing and we pay for licensing on a subscription basis."
"For now, I think the pricing of Veeam ONE is quite okay for any of the infrastructures, especially for those who want a backup system and a tool that provides monitoring services."
"It's the market price. It isn't expensive, nor is it cheap."
"The tool’s licensing is yearly and flexible. I would rate the solution’s pricing a seven out of ten."
"The price of this product is very good."
"The price is great. It's software related, and I know that might be a good thing because it's a cheap solution to buy and we have been looking for a program for backup and they fit the bill."
"I don't have an issue with the price of Veeam Backup Replication."
"If you tell Veeam that you're competing with, for example, NetBackup or Backup Exec, or Dell or Micro Focus then they may lower the price. They are very competitive."
