I""We are able to take backups on a regular interval and restore data/VMs as we choose making the process work as advertised.""The backup and replication are great.""They reply immediately to any query raised from us as a technician or consultant and they know the pulse of the market and keep updating the features in such a big way.""This product provides cost-efficient and reliable backups."

"It is scalable.""The initial setup and deployment are easy. It's straightforward.""Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward. The deployment is easy because Veeam is compatible with all our VMware services and VMs. Veeam Backup and Veeam ONE are integrated into vCenter or vSphere site deployments, so we don't need to deploy each server one by one.""What I found most valuable in Veeam Agent for Linux is that it can unify machines and even simplify management.""The most valuable feature of the solution is its integration with Veeam Backup & Replication console.""The solution is very user-friendly and has an easy to use interface.

Cons
"It could be a little bit faster in terms of backup and offer more reliable SQL server backups.""In the future, I would like to see support for backing up data to more cloud platforms, besides Amazon.""In the future, the solution should provide a more granular backup.""There are many features we have not had the opportunity to try, such as Tape Backups, Office 365 backups, and many other things.""Right now we know that Nakivo has the ability to back up as an incremental process and restore backups across several criteria. However, it would be good if we had the ability to backup a system like PostgreSQL.""The interface might be improved, but the interface of every product might be improved.""When you schedule some jobs, you should be able to see a list of the jobs contained within each. You have to open up the editor to see what is inside. You must click through and edit stuff. Each time, it asks you to save or discard changes. It's very annoying. You only see the name of the scheduled job, and you need to edit it to see what's it's inside.""An additional feature that would be appreciated is disaster recovery automation."

More NAKIVO Backup & Replication Cons →

"It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network.""The pricing could be lowered if possible.""It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform.""It could use deduplication features.""I would like to be able to install Veeam directly to Linux instead of having to go through a Windows server.""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 price of Veeam Agent for Linux could be reduced.""They could be more customer-friendly."
