Room For Improvement

MongoDB Atlas users seek UI improvements, cost reduction, better integration, scalability, and enhanced security, training, APIs, and support.
Veeam Data Platform needs better support, automation, plugin enhancements, lower pricing, and improved scalability, security, and technology integration.
Enhancing vector processing for AI capabilities would also be critical.
MongoDB Atlas should support containerization.
Reducing it by 20% would make it more accessible to a broader range of customers.
OpenStack is something Veeam Data Platform doesn't support, and they haven't indicated that they will support it in the future.
Compared to IBM, Veeam Data Platform is simpler but brings some challenges with automation in backup and Oracle backup configuration.
 

Setup Cost

Enterprise buyers find MongoDB Atlas pricing acceptable, yet opinions on cost-effectiveness differ; the free tier enhances its appeal.
Veeam Data Platform offers cost-effective, flexible licensing with minimal setup costs, making it attractive to enterprise buyers.
The price of MongoDB Atlas is reasonable, which is why many organizations, including mine, are opting for it.
For our service, it was around 300 to 600 euros per month, which was acceptable for our customers.
I believe it is not expensive; it's the regular price.
A reduction of 20% in the current cost would make the solution more attractive to clients.
Veeam Data Platform is more expensive than OpenStack because we pay for it in US dollars, while we pay for OpenStack in Egyptian pounds.

It is particularly useful for unstructured and semi-structured data because of its performance in these areas.
The platform is user-friendly, comprehensive, and compatible with numerous market solutions, including virtualization and bare metal servers.
The most important aspect of this platform is data security with immutable data in the storage.
Veeam Data Platform provides me with the most useful features such as application restore, single file restore, backup and replication, and continuous replication.

Room for improvement in data handling leads to enhanced cost-effective data management performance
It would be beneficial if MongoDB Atlas could better support OLTP aspects and data frames, as well as enhance its capabilities for data pipelines and visualization dashboards. Furthermore, supporting the medallion architecture could be a valuable addition, and incorporating improved spatial and vector handling for geographical data could make it more competitive. Enhancing vector processing for AI capabilities would also be critical.
