Featured Reviews

CONRAD FORREST - PeerSpot reviewer
President at MTS Consulting Group, Inc.
The solution provides the ability to backup all types of cloud drives, is inexpensive, and has decent support
MSP360 Backup provides the backup functionality, but we need to provide the storage component. We can use Azure, AWS, or another provider, but we need to choose the storage provider and create a bucket to store our data. The vendor is making changes to improve the functionality of the service and the separation of storage, but I would like to see more integration and a knowledge base of the tool. Currently trying to understand why the storage is separated and how to implement the storage properly is a challenge. Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service. Unlike other solutions such as Kohl which includes everything at one price. MSP360 Backup can be improved by adding inclusive pricing.

Backup operations have become reliable and reporting now simplifies hybrid cloud protection
Veeam Data Platform has Veeam Enterprise Manager as well as Veeam ONE as valuable features, which allow us to generate various kinds of reports that are required for the customer. Instant VM Recovery is a good feature of the high-speed recovery features in Veeam Data Platform, and Continuous Data Protection (CDP) is also a good feature. Ransomware protection is a good feature added in Veeam Data Platform from version 12 onwards, and the ability to create immutable repositories is also a good feature in Veeam. The analytics part of Veeam Data Platform is a good solution because I have worked on various backup technologies such as EMC NetWorker and NetBackup. However, I have not used the analytical parts currently but will check it out. Streamlining processes as well as saving money are benefits that Veeam Data Platform provides for the end user, as it allows for application-aware backups and database backups without the need for various kinds of licenses that other backup software requires. Veeam offers socket-based licenses, instance-based licenses, and capacity-based licenses, which is a great feature.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Technical support is very good."
"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."
"I was mainly concerned with cloud backups, OneDrive backups, consumer OneDrive, business OneDrive, Google backups, and SharePoint backups. The solution did a good job of the backup."
"The solution is appliance-free, the initial setup is very straightforward, the scalability and stability have never been a problem for us, technical support is very good, and we have found the price point to be quite good."
"Client-side encryption minimizes worries about data being captured on the back-end."
"I would recommend the solution; it's a very trustworthy solution."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b. It doesn't take an entire site up again and again. So that incremental and bit by bit backup is important, it is a nice feature here."
"The solution is easy to access and handles things efficiently."
"Setting up Veeam is easy, and it's portable, too."
"While I do not recall whether the latest version is 10.0 or 11.0 I do know that it allows one to make a back up repository that is very scalable and simple."
"The data backup replication has been the most useful feature; previously, we copied the data hub to an external hard drive but now we are able to store the backup on one of the depository services."
"The most valuable feature is how reliable Veeam Backup is. It has the normal expected features that allow you to ensure that everything is backed up completely."
"This is absolutely a product that I recommend."
"For me, it's perfect. We don't have any problems with backups and applications."
"One of the most valuable features is the integration. Another good feature is the instant recovery."
"Veeam ONE is a straightforward solution and compatible with almost all hardware."
 

Cons

"The initial setup is a little complex as it has to be done in the office and requires someone to come in and install the solution on your server, then configure the scheduling, backup pushing, and so on."
"The restore time could improve. When we had an issue the restore time was lengthy."
"The product could be more user-friendly."
"The interface feels like it is targeted for end users who typically are looking for an all-in-one integrated push button solution. It would be better if the interface had a beginner mode and an expert mode."
"The interface could use some updating."
"There are some things that we don't like about it. That is why I was exploring alternatives in a hyper-scale environment. That is why I was checking IT Central Station."
"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"They need full cloud integration such that an on-premises backup can be offloaded to the cloud for storage."
"The Veeam backup application interface is application-based and not web-based."
"I would like to see the licensing model improved. They have recently changed the model and have made it more complicated."
"They need to improve their technical side."
"It is not easy to navigate, especially with the numerous reports available."
"Compared to IBM, Veeam Data Platform is simpler but brings some challenges with automation in backup and Oracle backup configuration."
"I find this product to be rather weak when it comes to database integration and that really is problematic."
"Veeam ONE does not easily recognize hardware issues within the infrastructure out of the box which costs some administrative overhead."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a very good return on investment."
"Pricing is reasonable although can be quite a large upfront cost."
"Its pricing needs improvement."
"The solution is expensive."
"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."
"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."
"It includes a standard licensing fee. Once a year, there is a rebranding fee. The licensing costs are available on the internet for MSP360 Backup. There is a discount structure where if you have over 50 devices, you get a 50% discount. So, my cost is $2 a license per month."
"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."
"We use the community edition of the Veeam Backup Replication and it is a software-based license. It can be a little expensive."
"The price of Veeam Backup and Replication is expensive."
"It's expensive and costs about 4000 a year."
"The price is quite fair."
"The cost is expensive. It will depend on how you are managing your environment, your requirements, and if you can easily manage a license. It's not that difficult, so you can manage it, but the cost is high, so you need to check directly with Veeam as well as the local partner so you can get the discount prices."
"The price is quite competitive compared to other products in my region."
"The price of Veeam Backup Replication is reasonable."
"It's an extremely cost-effective solution."
