Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
"Regarding the initial setup and configuration, I find it straightforward and it should not be more simplified because users are able to back up most environments within minutes."
"It lets you verify a backup with the least amount of effort."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the recuperation of the weaker machines."
"I consider the solution's technical support to be excellent, perfect."
"I'm pleased with the ability to search for documents; it's very useful."
"I like how Veeam intuitively integrates with Zerto."
"The most valuable feature is adaptability, where it automatically adapts to the environment that it's being installed on."
"Veeam replication gives migration tools/options for VMware."
 

Cons

"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"I feel that the product's support team needs improvement."
"The product's initial setup process could be complex for application backup and database agent installations."
"Its price is higher than other solutions and can be improved. They can also change the version of the software more often."
"OpenStack is something Veeam Data Platform doesn't support, and they haven't indicated that they will support it in the future."
"I would like the solution to have better integration with other hypervisors and cloud features that are not exclusive to VMware."
"The one downside to Veeam is that they don't have a cloud product of their own."
"The price is an issue. If one has a large number of servers, say... 100-plus, and wishes to add more, an exhausted budget may hinder this ability."
"I would like for them to develop the ability to fix the way it does backups. We can't pick a backup for one database. We have to do a backup on the whole Exchange VM. I'd like for them to change it to where we can do individual backups."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price is great. It's software related, and I know that might be a good thing because it's a cheap solution to buy and we have been looking for a program for backup and they fit the bill."
"The price is quite fair."
"The product is expensive."
"I have not used the resale license in our testing environments. Sometimes, our customers used the trial license for 30 days and so on."
"Veeam is quite expensive. There are no additional costs to the licensing fees. IBM Spectrum Protect is also expensive. They should improve its pricing. They raise the price every time there is an increase in the features of the product. They should think twice about that."
"The price of Veeam is much lower than the IBM solution."
"The cost is based on the number of core servers."
"Veeam's pricing is good. But compared to the past five years, it's constantly increasing."
