The company I was with at the time was a service provider that handles the backups of customers via Veeam Cloud Connect.
As my company was a service provider, Veeam Cloud Connect provided another layer of data protection for customers. The solution provided another copy of customer data in the cloud. It was the service my company provided. Veeam Cloud Connect also has a lot of features, such as being able to send additional copies from the cloud to tape, so it was able to improve the company I was in.
The most valuable quality of Veeam Cloud Connect is its reliability.
Some of the features I'd like added to the solution would be coming up in version 12, so the only area for improvement I saw in Veeam Cloud Connect was the need to have more support for object storage.
I've been using Veeam Cloud Connect for about five years now.
Veeam Cloud Connect is a very stable solution.
Veeam Cloud Connect is a scalable solution.
On a scale of one to five, my rating for the technical support team of Veeam Cloud Connect is five.

I'm a Cloud Solutions Architect, and I use Veeam products.
I use Veeam Cloud Connect as a base solution, but I also use the whole Veeam suite, so I use Veeam ONE and Veeam Backup & Replication as well. Additionally, I also use SaaS offerings such as Veeam for Microsoft 365 and one of the cloud offerings, Veeam for Azure.
I'm using version 11A, which is the latest version of Veeam Cloud Connect, but when version 12 comes out, I would be testing that new version as well.
My company was a service provider to many, many customers, so a lot of people use Veeam Cloud Connect. Two to three people handled the maintenance of the solution. Veeam Cloud Connect is used extensively, and there's a plan to increase its usage in the future.
My advice to others looking into implementing Veeam Cloud Connect is that it's a good solution. It does what it's supposed to do, and it's very reliable. Veeam Cloud Connect is very mature, technology-wise.
My rating for Veeam Cloud Connect as a product, in general, is nine out of ten.
