I have seen a return on investment through money savings and time efficiency.
In terms of money, we have saved more, and because we are able to replicate everything from production to DR, we can now seamlessly work in any environment we want.
I have seen a return on investment as it saves time and money by preventing us from being in a disaster situation.
It is suitable for our nature of business because data is very critical, and we cannot compromise on backup.
They are equipped with newer technology, requiring less attention.
Most cases are handled perfectly.
I would rate their technical support a 10 out of 10.
The escalation from first, second to third tier is sometimes very long-lasting, but the resolve rate is quite high.
The support from Veritas NetBackup is very good.
The customer support is very poor.
The technical support from Veritas is rated an eight, as the local partners are good and support us.
It involves acquiring additional licenses as needed.
I would rate the scalability part of Veeam Data Platform 10 out of 10 because we have the ability to scale out the product at any time with scale-out backup repositories and can add licenses as needed.
In order to scale Veeam Data Platform, we have to pay a lot more money.
I feel that if you can keep it at least two or three levels back or forward with backward compatibility available, it would help people use the old disk storage and get more storage space.
The size of the catalog was an issue, but it was more about outgrowing our own architecture than a problem with Veritas NetBackup itself.
They are built with newer technology and processes, needing less support.
There are no issues with stability in Veeam Data Platform.
I can say the stability of Veeam Data Platform is almost 8 to 9, as the cluster functionality was not there in earlier platforms such as version 12, but is provided in version 13.
Veritas NetBackup performs well in terms of stability.
In the last 10 years, I have never faced a single incident regarding stability with Veritas NetBackup.
They had given a feature of real-time replication which they stopped in NAKIVO.
The improvement we would like to see is the option to scale Veeam Data up in smaller sections rather than large sections, which requires paying much more.
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.
Veritas NetBackup needs improvement in terms of integration with the cloud.
We would really appreciate if Veritas offers products by which we can secure our backups against these ransomware attacks.
Support tickets take too long to be solved and the quality of engineers they have for support has lately become lacking.
The product is affordable even for smaller organizations.
The pricing is very low, and the licensing process makes it easy to obtain any quote.
I don't consider the price expensive given its importance.
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.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that the appliance licensing is a bit tricky and a bit expensive, especially when I have to license the hardware and the software;
I would rate pricing for Veritas NetBackup around six, as it is neither high nor low.
The VM, restore, and file recovery capabilities are considered gold standards.
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.
The backup for specific disks feature has helped me by allowing us to take backups specifically for data we need, rather than for the whole server as a single disk, such as just backing up the root disk.
In my opinion, the main benefits Veritas NetBackup provides are that it is a unified platform where we can integrate all the requirements such as online backup, offline backup, and virtualization backup in one single platform, although my only concern is the licensing structure.
I have found Veritas NetBackup to be the most reliable backup solution I have worked with so far.
Although we do not utilize its deduplication technology or cloud integration, we can trigger storage actions with NetBackup.

Veritas NetBackup is an enterprise-grade backup and recovery software solution. NetBackup securely restores and backs up files, raw partitions, and directories on a server known as a media server. A server protected by NetBackup is referred to as a NetBackup client. During the backup process, the NetBackup client sends the data through the network to the NetBackup media server, which chooses the appropriate storage media as the backup point.
Veritas NetBackup is a trusted enterprise backup solution that integrates with many of today’s popular databases, such as Microsoft SQL, Oracle, Linux, Unix, and Microsoft operating systems. The solution is able to backup data to tape, disc, and public clouds and keeps the popular Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware hypervisors safe and secure.
Veritas NetBackup Features
Reviews from Real Users
Mahdi B., Solution Architect and IT Consultant at Merdasco - Rayan Merdas Data Processing, says, “Veritas integrates well with the cloud, all databases, all operating systems, all hardware, and all software. Veritas also has solid malware and ransomware protection features. From time to time, we face a new kind of attack, and Veritas has always proven to be the best protection solution for some of my customers. Our customers who have faced ransomware attacks were able to recover their data in less than one day without any stress. Veritas is ransomware resilient and because of its implementation, it is not dependent on the operating system to work. Most of the functions of the Veritas software are isolated from the operating system and it's not dependent on the operating systems involved. This is very important. When some of our operating systems are infected by a virus, Veritas still works perfectly and protects our data. This feature is very well implemented in Veritas NetBackup.”
A PeerSpot user who is a General Manager at a comms service provider relates, “Veritas enterprise has many agents who perform the backup, whether it is a consistent backup or recorded backup. The solution has everything from the snapshot to the multiple database agents.”
Mir-Ali, Infrastructure Manager - Oracle SCM at a financial services firm, shares, “It covers all kinds of different architectures. Plus, it's very user-friendly and it is very reliable. Reliability is the most important thing because once the backup is done, if it is successful, then we're sure that it was successful and we will be able to restore it.”
