Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The Veeam Backup and Replication Suite is very user-friendly."
"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."
"Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward. The deployment is easy because Veeam is compatible with all our VMware services and VMs. Veeam Backup and Veeam ONE are integrated into vCenter or vSphere site deployments, so we don't need to deploy each server one by one."
"The flexibility and user-friendliness of Veeam make it very IT operations-friendly."
"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."
"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."
"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."
"It's simple to use."
"This product is flexible enough to allow for backing up data from physical machines, as well as from your cloud environment."
"It has been around for so long, and it is very in-depth. It has a solution for everything that you can cover."
"Veritas NetBackup is a reliable, easy-to-use, and easy-to-deploy solution."
"DLO: Client for laptops."
"It is very easy to back up and recover files compared to other products."
"It's a good product, it does what we want it to do."
"AIR and duplication, overall management and troubleshooting."
"The most valuable feature from Veritas NetBackup is the data is very easy to backup. It is similar to VMware. They recently introduced a cloud feature that is useful."
"I would like to be able to install Veeam directly to Linux instead of having to go through a Windows server."
"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's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform."
"It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
"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."
"The integration needs improvement."
"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."
"The pricing could be improved, and the interface could be more intuitive."
"The most common problem is the backup failures over the weekend. We have to troubleshoot and sometimes do restores and then we have trouble doing some of the restores."
"The HTML interface is a web application that does not offer all the features."
"The solution could improve by having a feature to backup iSeries workloads."
"Setup implementation."
"Veritas could simplify the firmware recovery in terms of the deployed. The process shouldn't be dependent on the agents. It should be completely agentless."
"The reporting of the backups could be better."
"Support for the solution needs improvement."
