The solution is very stable.
They have already invested a lot of R&D and mainly they're supported on most of the Windows scenarios, even the custom-tailored parts.
The solution allows for full integration. I can deploy the Agent from the backup server and manage the backups all from the backup server. Or I can use the Agent as a stand-alone and discard the backup server. In terms of restoration, I can restore the entire machine, specific file systems, application actors, et cetera.
Restoring to the cloud is pretty flexible.
Technical support is quite good.
The initial setup has improved quite a bit from version 4 to 5. You don't need to worry about downtime.
If you have windows machine at home and you'd like a backup, you can always download their free edition and plug in an external hard disk, and do a full backup of your laptop.
They just released Version 5 for Version 11 and they released some amazing features with it, such as the backup and restore snapshots features. Before the agent was only able to back up through the network. Now it's even able to back up through the SAN fabric, depending on the customer environment.

It's easy to integrate.
It can fix any issue if you have hardware problems or integrations.
I don't need to install any agent. However, some critical machines require an agent, and we can engage with that. We can use virtual machines and won't need an agent. For physical machines, it may be required to have an agent, and we can just install it.
Version 12 has a lot of new features. They are very good at upgrading.
It's powerful and user-friendly.
The solution is scalable.
It is stable.
Technical support is very helpful and responsive.
The solution is quite affordable.

Technical support is helpful.

It's a simple way to back up the database.
The initial setup, if it is error-free, is very simple.
The solution is inexpensive.
View full review »The most valuable feature is the ease of use. At one glance of the console, you can see how your backup and replication jobs are being carried out.
Notifications are available for when the backup job is completed or if there are errors.
You can set the number of retry attempts, which is helpful. It gives us comfort because even if the tape drive is being used by something else then you can always retry the job afterward. This is an advantage over some of the other products that I have tried. Rather than retry the job if it fails, you have to wait for the next scheduler to launch.

Steve Lowrey
Owner / IT operator at Fairview Schools
I haven't had any disasters, so I haven't had to actually do a full restore.
The solution is extremely stable.
The ability to go into the virtual machine and do a file extraction has been quite useful as I have staff members and teachers that will either misplace or accidentally delete a file. They then rely on me to go get it for them. It's quite useful.
I basically just set it and forget it and use it to check my reports. If my reports look good, I don't even mess with it, I just let it do its thing. It's very hands-off.
The solution is very affordable for small businesses.

Also, with Veeam I don't need to install Agent on every machine, unlike Veritas, one of its competitors. This makes it a more efficient solution.
