Backup operations have become reliable and reporting now simplifies hybrid cloud protection
Veeam Data Platform has Veeam Enterprise Manager as well as Veeam ONE as valuable features, which allow us to generate various kinds of reports that are required for the customer. Instant VM Recovery is a good feature of the high-speed recovery features in Veeam Data Platform, and Continuous Data Protection (CDP) is also a good feature. Ransomware protection is a good feature added in Veeam Data Platform from version 12 onwards, and the ability to create immutable repositories is also a good feature in Veeam. The analytics part of Veeam Data Platform is a good solution because I have worked on various backup technologies such as EMC NetWorker and NetBackup. However, I have not used the analytical parts currently but will check it out. Streamlining processes as well as saving money are benefits that Veeam Data Platform provides for the end user, as it allows for application-aware backups and database backups without the need for various kinds of licenses that other backup software requires. Veeam offers socket-based licenses, instance-based licenses, and capacity-based licenses, which is a great feature.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The whole replication aspect of the solution is excellent because it compresses the data so well."
"All features of Veeam Data Platform, such as backup, immutability, and replication, are highly valuable."
"This is the number one product for backups and restorations of VMs in an enterprise environment."
"The documentation is very good and it's also easy to install Veeam Backup and Replication."
"The solution offers a very straightforward setup."
"The benefits from using Veeam Data Platform include reliability and peace of mind; whenever you need a backup, you do not have to worry about it because we have experienced it, and Veeam Data Platform has never failed, with never an issue recovering data."
"Veeam Backup is very user-friendly; it's integrated with many deduplication software solutions, including Dell software, and it's simply very good software for backup purposes."
"The best feature of Veeam ONE to me is the infrastructure analysis that you can perform before deploying a backup environment. You can put in your backup requirements, for example, repository files and improvements on your VMware side, to ensure that it runs optimally. Pricing for Veeam ONE is also cheaper than VMware vRealize Operations (vROps) which is a direct competitor in the ops space, so this is another advantage of the solution."
"It takes less time to replicate files between two servers."
"Customer Service: Second to none Technical Support: Second to none"
"In Version 7.xx the most valuable feature to me is being able to carry out a test full server failover in which case the primary server is still up and running."
"It gives us the possibility to migrate/protect customer servers and data in the simplest way."
 

Cons

"In Latin America (my area) it could be better."
"Sometimes, rarely, there is a bug that prevents enabling the restore button, which is hectic."
"I have a problem with the VM. When we started doing a backup, it takes a snapshot for our virtual machines, but when we try it two or three times, in some cases, our virtual machines go to a consolidated state. I don't know why this problem happens. But I still think Veeam is a top-ranking solution."
"The solution requires a lot of bandwidth because our servers are heavy."
"This is an expensive solution."
"I would like to see more broad support for other applications such as databases, or other operating systems."
"We would like to see support for some additional storage systems."
"The solution keeps getting more and more expensive. They should work on the pricing."
"Not such a good coverage of the most widely used Linux server distributions, so many issues happen while migrating these servers."
"Yes I encountered issues with deployment. The information provided in the guide just stated about 2 or 3 communication ports but even after these ports are enabled there are still issues with the 2 servers communicating via Double-Take."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are happy with the pricing and we pay for licensing on a subscription basis."
"Room for improvement is actually more in the way of licensing. The really good and useful features are in the Enterprise plus edition, and that one is really expensive."
"When it comes to pricing for a backup solution for data centers, you do not care about the price. We just care about the service and want it to be reliable. In terms of subscription, it really makes sense. When you want to use all the functionalities it is good that Veeam did the subscription-based model, this is what gives it the most strength on the price."
"It is relatively cheap."
"The price of Veeam Backup Replication has been increasing their price and my customers are asking why. They have CPU-based licenses and a Universal License, the prices should be reduced."
"The product is expensive."
"The price is quite fair."
"I don't have an issue with the price of Veeam Backup Replication."
