Solutions Architect at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees
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.
Associate Technical Specialist at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees
In order to scale Veeam Data Platform, we have to pay a lot more money.

Stability Issues

7.6
Opsview is generally stable and low maintenance, with rare upgrade issues and slowdowns due to MySQL dependence.

There are no issues with stability in Veeam Data Platform.
Solutions Architect at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees
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.

Room For Improvement

Opsview requires API upgrades, better graphing, enhanced usability, improved scalability, and refined integrations, while addressing pricing and processing issues.
Veeam Data Platform needs better integration, speed, support, flexibility, and affordability to meet user demands for large environments.
Grafana does have features that I think my current solution lacks, such as better performance reporting.
Partner Technical Support & Escalation Manager at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees
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.
L3 Infrastructure Engineer at Specsavers
OpenStack is something Veeam Data Platform doesn't support, and they haven't indicated that they will support it in the future.
Applications section Head at Raya Integration
Reducing it by 20% would make it more accessible to a broader range of customers.
Solutions Architect at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees
 

Setup Cost

Opsview offers competitive pricing with negotiable discounts, comprehensive licensing, and valuable features, recommended for enterprise use.
Veeam Data Platform offers reasonable pricing with predictable per-CPU socket licensing but can be costly for smaller businesses.
I believe it is not expensive; it's the regular price.
Sr. Production Analyst at a logistics company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Veeam Data Platform is more expensive than OpenStack because we pay for it in US dollars, while we pay for OpenStack in Egyptian pounds.
Applications section Head at Raya Integration
A reduction of 20% in the current cost would make the solution more attractive to clients.

The platform is user-friendly, comprehensive, and compatible with numerous market solutions, including virtualization and bare metal servers.
Solutions Architect at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees
The most important aspect of this platform is data security with immutable data in the storage.
Sr. Production Analyst at a logistics company with 1,001-5,000 employees

Real-time dashboards have improved our deployment monitoring and incident response
We are using Opsview ourselves, rather than being a consultant or a reseller. We do not use its auto-discovery feature. We do not utilize its API driven architecture. I do not know what metrics we use to assess the effectiveness of Opsview's hybrid IT monitoring. Overall, I am pretty satisfied with Opsview as it is good for what it does. I do not know if Grafana has any other advantages besides better stats, as I am not involved in that side. Based on my experience, I would still recommend Opsview to others as it is good for what it does. I gave this review a rating of 8.

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.

VMware SRM vs. Veeam vs. Zerto
Disaster recovery planning is something that seems challenging for all businesses. Virtualization in addition to its operational flexibility, and cost reduction benefits, has helped companies improve their DR posture. Virtualization has made it easier to move machines from production to…
