"The most valuable feature is the ability to pick up individual files."
"The most valuable feature is the instant restore option."

"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."
"The technical support is good."
"AIR and duplication, overall management and troubleshooting."

"The most valuable feature is its stability."
"We believe that everything Veritas NetBackup offers, including backups, snapshots, deduplication, and replication, is valuable."
"We have a file server and our data file server, everything. We use it for VM server backup, too."
"The solution offers a lot of really great features that organizations can utilize and take advantage of."
"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."
"Technical support could be improved."
"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."
"It could use deduplication features."
"The price of Veeam Agent for Linux could be reduced."
"There isn't much to improve. They just need to follow the trend or the development of other Linux products. Follow in terms of making the product compatible with new versions of Linux. They just need to include as many versions for Linux as 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."
"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."
"The biggest additional features needed are more cloud capabilities and security from ransomware."
"Improvements can be made to the service by providing better and more competitive ratios on data backups. The functionality for backups is there with Veritas, but I would like to see them optimize and enhance this feature more."
"The product needs to improve its GUI. It needs to make use of a web interface."
"Within their product lineup, they need to consolidate down to one product. Veritas doesn't have one product that does everything. So, Veritas can do everything, but you basically need to run two products. I would like them to combine all the capabilities into one release."
"Setup implementation."
"Enhancing reporting across the board would be beneficial."
"They currently have the Java concept and it should be less intensive and take less load."
"The only pain point we have with this solution is the cost. It's very expensive. In fact, it's so expensive we are looking for other platforms. We want to move away from it in order to save our organization costs."
