Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The technical support is good."
"It's most compatible with VMware. It can restore single files instead of having to restore the whole machine, once again leading to savings for the company."
"The initial setup and deployment are easy. It's straightforward."
"The solution is very user-friendly and has an easy to use interface. We can manage it easily. It allows for a simple backup."
"It's stable and reliable."
"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."
"The ease of use for the graphical interface and the ease of installation are the most valuable features of this solution."
"It's simple to use."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is a scalable solution."
"Veeam Backup Replication's most valuable features are the ease of use, good integration with others solutions, such as Oracle ERP, and by using the UI you can create and achieve operations you want to do."
"They introduced a new feature called the Immutable Repository feature, which helps protect environments from malware attacks that target backup file extensions."
"Veeam Cloud Connect has helped us to reduce the cost of cloud storage for an offsite solution using their archive storage feature."
"I know it's not exactly a feature, but I accept it works and it's easy to use. With the Veeam Backup & Replication, we have no problems in managing restore. Obviously, the most important thing about backup software. I used to say that every backup software can make backups, but only good ones can make a restore."
"The whole replication aspect of the solution is excellent because it compresses the data so well."
"The solution is stable and the performance is good."
"I'm pleased with the ability to search for documents; it's very useful."
"In new releases, I hope they can support Oracle cloud."
"They could be more customer-friendly."
"It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform."
"It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side. For example, their agent for Windows not only can back up the Windows machine, but it can also back up Active Directory for granular restore, SQL servers, Exchange, Oracle, SharePoint, etc. When it comes to Linux, only Oracle databases are supported. There are workarounds, though."
"The integration needs improvement."
"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."
"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."
"We are currently waiting for the continuous backup process."
"The implementation of the features can be improved. Currently, there is no segregation of duty. Normally, any backup software or client service software is implemented in a way where one person is responsible for the implementation of the server, and one is responsible for the client, but Veeam Backup & Replication is not implemented in that way. Therefore, restores don't work like that. The backup guys have to do the restores, which is not a good thing. Its pricing should also be improved. It is quite expensive."
"It is efficient but can improve security-wise."
"think backing up from physical servers and ransomware security needs some improvements."
"The licensing models, from a reseller's perspective, could be better."
"The direct SAN backup integration can be perfected by improving the snapshot removal mechanism and process from the storage volumes."
"The cost needs to be considered."
"The only issue on which we would like to see for improvement would be, potentially, the ability to do some different things with recovery, like faster recovery onsite."
"The replication functionality only works for VMware environments. Veeam has a backup agent for AIX operating systems, and we will like to see the replication functionality available for the AIX operating system. Additionally, if the backup functionality for AIX to be included in the Veeam console would be an advantage."
