Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, IBM, Nutanix and others in Virtualization Management Tools."It is easy to set up initially."
"The solution is carefully designed to be easy to use - even if you're in a panic."
"Veaam ONE is a very good product in virtualized environments."
"I think Veeam ONE is great as it is, it does everything I need."
"For me, the most important feature is alerting."
"The monthly reports come complete with graphs and summaries, it's really helpful."
"The solution is really easy and straightforward to use."
"I like the backup and backup copy features."
"You see more responsiveness, especially now with having the HTML5 client. It feels like a much snappier product."
"Provides good backup to our servers."
"There are no issues with the level of scalability you can achieve."
"As an end-user, I would say it has allowed us to have the flexibility of moving around our workloads on different machines, and not having to worry if anything is down."
"Most valuable features of vSphere 6.7, for us, at the management level would be: VCHA is a nice redundancy feature that they added in v6.7. I like the quality of life improvements with the VMFS-6 for using auto UNMAP on the data stores. And we really appreciate the improvements to the Clarity UI where we can manage Update Manager (VUM) and our vSAN stack within the modern interface."
"We have seen an improvement in uptime. The whole hardware lifecycle process is easier."
"It stands out as a comprehensive and advantageous solution, providing a full package that effectively caters to our needs for managing our private cloud."
"For me, the most valuable feature would be the EVC, but EVC has been changed to be per-VM which makes it possible for us to migrate the VMs to cloud and not take into account what hardware they're running on. Also, a big improvement from the previous version is that I'm now able to schedule backup for the VCSA. That is, in my opinion, a huge improvement. The last thing that I think is really great is, I'm not able to boot the OS and not the entire server. That's going to save me a lot of time."
"It would be better if the solution presented the number of servers and the success rate on the dashboard."
"Backup management features are crucial for ensuring the reliability and automation of backup processes."
"Sometimes the solution give reports that are confusing and has errors. So the integration of the full solution with the resolution of resolving the error should be added in the next release.The solution should also provide more customization, automation, better documentation."
"Veeam One has its ransomware monitoring, but it's based on static parameters."
"It would be great if Veeam ONE had a business hour reporting feature because sometimes a client would want to know what workers do during business hours and outside of business hours. This type of report will give you the added benefit when you're scaling up and scaling down in the cloud, for example, if I wanted to swap hot and cold storage during specific hours to save on cost. Business hour reporting in Veeam ONE will give you a lot of benefits and added value. Scalability needs to be improved in the solution."
"The product’s stability has certain issues and needs to be improved. The solution’s pricing could be also cheaper."
"The reports are basic and not customizable, making it challenging to get detailed insights."
"Sometimes, it's a little difficult for me to use its user interface. Its scope is very big with a lot of tuning, settings, and so on. If it's difficult for me, it must also be difficult for our customers."
"The installation can take a long time, they need to improve on the simplicity and length of the installation."
"The reporting could be improved."
"I would like to see more software as a service solutions."
"The technical support is poor. We are in Australia, but we do not have the same level of support as the US and Europe."
"the HTML version of things needs to get a little bit better. The vSphere side of things gets a little difficult to manage; right-click, in some browsers, doesn't work as well as it used to. I'm seeing a little bit of general latency that we didn't used to get with the thick client, although it's getting there."
"I would like to see AI in future releases."
"The pipeline feature can be improved, as it doesn't allow for specific situations."
"The biggest thing to improve is to have more self-service in the portals. I would like to receive more help through the web interface."
