Veeam Backup & Replication Reviews

We use the solution for backing up software from the computer to the server to VMware.

I am not in the best position to discuss the solution's most valuable features, as I am not the one who is really using it. This is more a question for the high level-three technicians who are doing so. 

I know that the solution does not have any issues and that they love it. It is easy to install and very stable. We are really not inconvenienced by it. 

The tech support could be better. I rate it as a six out of ten. Though this is not frequent, when we have had need to resort to it, we found it to not be good. 

The solution is very stable. 

The tech support could be better. I rate it as a six out of ten. Though this is not frequent, when we have had need to resort to it, we found it to not be good.

The initial setup is straightforward. 

The solution is easy to support once it has been set up. 

I am not familiar with the licensing fees. 

I do not have any particular advice to impart to others looking to implement the solution. 

I rate Veeam Backup & Replication as a nine-point-five out of ten. 

We use Veeam Backup Replication for small businesses with on average 100 virtual machines.

The most valuable features I have found to be Instant Recovery, quick restore and rollback, and asynchronous copy. It is a complete solution for our needs.

I have been using Veeam Backup Replication for approximately eight years.

The stability is good.

Veeam Backup Replication is scalable. We adapt with many hardware and storage vendors, with no problems at all.

The technical support is responsive and every time I have contacted them I received a quick and definitive solution to many problems.

We to the implementation of the solution.

The licensing is the worst part of Veeam Backup Replication because for the more complex situations and it's quite difficult and complex. In particular, when mixing different requirements the licensing model is complex. For example, mixing a virtual machine backup and a file server backup in the same installation can be somewhat difficult and is expensive.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a ten out of ten.

Its portability and being able to back up between different platforms are the most valuable features.

There is always some room for improvement, especially with some of the different technologies such as DB2. Commvault has a DB2 agent, but Veeam still doesn't have it. We have to use the universal one for it.

Although this is not really something that comes too much from the Veeam side, there could be more integration with the storage for snapshots. I know that some products that we use would need it, but I think that also comes more from the storage suppliers.

I have been using it for about 10 years.

It is stable.

It is very good at scalability.

Their support was very good when I needed support back in South Africa.

We currently are on Commvault, and we're also on Veeam, but we are busy putting forward a design to migrate from Commvault to Veeam for our company.

Its initial setup is easy.

I would rate it a nine out of 10.

The VMR is the solution's most valuable aspect.

There is a great catchup backup quality to the solution.

We can have multiple jobs going so long as we have the proper licensing in effect. It's quite helpful.

The initial setup is very easy.

Technical support has been very good. They're helpful.

While we used the cloud and on-premises deployment models, on the cloud we found we had some issues and we moved to everything on-premises to counteract that.

The solution needs to fix its incremental sizing. Currently, we are facing an issue with the incremental backup. For example, with a normal user laptop, it is taking a huge amount of incremental backup on a daily basis - more than two, three DBS it is taking place on a daily basis. Much improvement is needed. Though the compression rate is good, what exactly they are backing up on daily basis for such a great extent is unresolved. We want to understand why this is happening.

The stability could be better, specifically in the cloud. We had bad experiences with the cloud. We were using Azure and we found some security issues in terms of ransomware. We relied on the cloud backup, however, the data in the cloud ended up also getting corrupted due to the ransomware. Data security is a huge concern on the cloud, in our experience. 

The scalability could be more effective.

I've been using the solution for about two years at this point.

The stability is okay, however, it isn't as stable as we would like it to be. There could be some improvement.

We had issues with ransomware getting into the cloud backup and causing troubles for us. It's not as secure on the cloud as it needs to be.

The scalability could be better. It isn't quite where we need it just yet.

We currently have 20 people using the solution. They are backing up the server time and users.

We've been satisfied with the level of support we get from technical support. They are helpful and responsive. They've been good overall.

The initial setup is not complex. It's very easy and very straightforward. A company should have no trouble with the process of deployment.

The licensing is pretty good. If you have it set up correctly, it allows the solution to take on multiple jobs.

We have experience in both on-premises and cloud deployment models.

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten. While the on-premises deployment seems to be working well for us, the cloud has given us problems.

We use Veeam to backup all the virtual machines and all the company data.

It's a backup solution. The only way it has improved the organization is by giving us a modern and robust backup solution. The previous solution wasn't complex, lacked features, and was abandoned.

I think the interface is straightforward. It's not complex. The other thing I like is that it usually works very well.

Technical support can be improved. Cloud backup could also be better. It would be better if there were an option to back up and then manually attach to storage. It's possible on-premises, but this isn't possible on the cloud. 

I've been using Veeam Backup & Replication for two years.

I consider it to be very stable.

It depends on the license. If we have more laws, more data to back up, then it's possible to do it. It's very scalable. It's only an issue of licenses and if it's necessary to increase the bandwidth and if it's necessary to increase the number of proxy servers. It's very scalable, and the product has no limits.

We had issues with the technical support. We had a very good response for some incidents and a very bad one for other incidents. It isn't homogeneous. It's a bit heterogeneous. It has a lot to do with the support engineers that deal with your case.

We did look at other options. The other solutions I was looking at weren't good enough.

The on-premises installation was very simple, but the on cloud installation has been more complex. It took us about one week for on-premises and three weeks for cloud deployment.

We used a reseller to implement the solution.

It's the market price. It isn't expensive, nor is it cheap.

I would advise potential users to consider this solution and analyze it. See if this could be a good solution for their use case. Even though there's room for improvement, I believe it's a good solution. 

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Veeam Backup & Replication an eight.

We are resellers of Veeam with an official partnership and a contract for reselling the product.

What I like most about this solution are the simplicity and the price-performance ratio.

It's a great product, but only if you have everything virtualized. If you still have non-virtualized environments, then it's not treatable for customers who have some products we can not virtualize. For example, another service, or if you have Oracle or other databases, then it's not treatable for those environments.

We have been using Veeam Backup Replication from the point that Veeam was available.

It's a stable solution. We have not had any complaints from our clients.

It's scalable with no issues.

If we have any issues, our technician teams contact the manufacture if they need help.

The initial setup and deployment are handled by our technician. I have never done it myself, but from my understanding, it's easy.

We have a team in-house for maintenance.

The price is quite fair.

People always want something cheaper but then it doesn't work as well.

Most of the time, we recommend Veeam because it's good enough. But in some environments, we don't see any reason for it and we recommend other solutions.

Know your environment before choosing Veeam to ensure that it is suitable.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

We use Veeam for the backup and recovery of our production environment.

The most valuable feature is the ability to restore the VMs into a test environment.

Some of the best practice documentation could be improved.

The stability is perfect and we have not had any problems with it.

With respect to how much we use this solution, we don't expect to increase it. Rather, we're just going to keep our usage the same that we have.

Their support is pretty good and I haven't had any issues with it.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward.

We had an integrator do most of the implementation.

I am the only one in the organization who uses the software.

Overall, we are happy with this software and have not found any limitations to it.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

We develop our own replication solutions for the IBM i platform. Our product is called Maxava. We have 500 customers using that for disaster recovery, data replication. We use Veeam in-house for our Windows replication.

I am not a direct user of this product, but my technical guys tell me that they like the product, and it is easy to use. We don't have any issues with it.

It would be nice if it could be integrated with third-party solutions like ours. It has been supporting just Windows and virtual machines.

I have been using this solution for about five years.

It is stable. I am not aware of any issues.

It is scalable. We're just using it in-house. We have maybe 20 to 23 users that we support on it.

Our guys have probably talked to support from time to time, but I haven't seen any issues raised about it or anything like that. So, I presume it's all pretty good.

It was pretty easy and straightforward.

Its pricing is really good.

I would recommend this solution. From my point of view, I haven't had any issues with it.

I would rate Veeam Backup & Replication a seven out of ten.
