StorageCraft ShadowXafe [EOL] vs Veeam Agent for Linux [EOL] comparison

"I like that they have some new devices that are simpler to use because they kind of tie right into the cloud."

"The most valuable feature is the backups."

"The ease of use for the graphical interface and the ease of installation are the most valuable features of this solution."

"The Veeam Backup and Replication Suite is very user-friendly."

"The initial setup was straightforward. It's not complicated. It takes around half an hour to implement, but it depends on the performance of the server that you are installing the backup software on."

"The initial setup and deployment are easy. It's straightforward."

"The solution is very simple. Management of the platform is so simple that we don't need to have any training to deploy this solution."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its integration with Veeam Backup & Replication console."

"The really amazing feature about Veeam Agent is that when you're using the central deployment model, you can actually use the instant VM recovery feature, which is really a pain point that I find some days."

"The solution is very user-friendly and has an easy to use interface. We can manage it easily. It allows for a simple backup."

"Their restoration protocols could be better. I pulled all my clients out of their cloud mostly because I wasn't confident that they could restore out of the cloud. This was backed up by friends who had been burned by stuff like that. We moved away because of the lack of resources to restore from a potential catastrophic failure. It's challenging, and in some cases, they couldn't do it because they didn't have enough resources. For example, if there was a major disaster, and everybody needed their images out of the cloud, they couldn't give them to everybody."

"StorageCraft ShadowXafe should improve the on-premises console management controls and protection and recovery."

"The pricing could be lowered if possible."

"In terms of the physical environment, I'd like them to integrate it with other kinds of solutions. We don't just work with Microsoft or Linux, but other kinds of infrastructure data as well."

"It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform."

"The price of Veeam Agent for Linux could be reduced."

"More Linux systems should be made compatible with the solution."

"The integration needs improvement."

"Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."

"There is a compatibility issue with HCI."

"They are more expensive than some of the others out there. We have gone away from their cloud due to pricing."

"There's the principal license for Veeam Agent for Linux, and then you need to buy additional licenses for your machines."

"Veeam Agent is one of the cheapest products in the market."

"The costing is very competitive."

"The solution is rather expensive and I think the price is too high."

"It's a subscription based license, which is started on a yearly basis. Currently the licensing is split between three editions: standard, enterprise, and enterprise plus. As long as you check the comparison between the additions and make sure that you have what you need, there are no extra costs with Veeam."

"Licensing costs are $300,000 USD yearly, and we pay for three years at a time."

"Price-wise it's good."

"Licensing costs are monthly."
