Veeam Data Platform Reviews

We use the product as a backup solution during emergency scenarios. 

One thing we like about the product is that it's good and not as expensive as similar products. Right now, there are different ways to back up your information—you can back up directly to a disk or the cloud. It allows you to have various kinds of repositories.

It would be nice to see more affordable training options for individuals who want to enhance their skills. Some people I know have been interested in training courses, but they found them too expensive.

Veeam Backup & Replication is a stable product. 

I rate Veeam Backup & Replication's scalability as nine out of ten. 

The product is stable and takes care of everything we need. We've only had to ask for support a few times, but each time, they've been really helpful.

Positive

The main difference between the solution and its competitors is based on pricing. Other products are more expensive. 

Veeam Backup & Replication's installation is simple. 

Every backup solution is like car insurance. You'll see the return when you have a problem. If you don't have any problems, you won't see the value of a backup solution. You realize the value when something goes wrong. It helps you feel more confident that you can recover the information if something happens to your company.

The solution's pricing is cheap. 

I rate the overall tool a nine out of ten. 

I worked on a project involving a multi-cloud environment, specifically backing up on-prem servers to the Azure cloud. However, the project was not completed due to financial issues between our company and the client. The technical configuration, such as creating a Veeam Data Platform plugin on Azure and connecting it with on-prem servers, was mostly done, but the project was halted before creating jobs. The challenges were financial and not technical. This was my first and last experience with such a multi-cloud project. 

One of the newest features in version 12.1 is malware detection. This feature allows the software to detect malware before initiating a backup job for a server. Although I haven't had the opportunity to personally try it out due to its recent release, I came across it while working on an environment in a cluster for a customer.

The solution's pricing may be expensive compared to other products. 

I have been using the product for one and a half years.

We have faced several issues with Acronis because their support hasn't been as helpful compared to Veeam Data Platform's support. It has been very supportive and has assisted us in many cases. Unfortunately, our experiences with Acronis support have not been as positive, leading us to discontinue working with Acronis for several months now.

Positive

The solution is worth its money. 

Veeam Data Platform has a significant difference compared to other tools or products. It is not very simple because it offers a lot of advanced features that can solve various problems in customers' environments. However, managing it is not difficult, but it's not as straightforward as Acronis, which is simpler because it focuses on core features like backup and simple recovery without many additional complexities. 

I find that I rarely encounter issues with the product. One notable aspect is the simplicity of its licensing, especially when compared to other vendors. Additionally, with each use, I discover more features. 

I rate the overall product a ten out of ten.

The solution is being used for licensing, for making reports and get graphs from there we can take the alerts of the process in Veeam One. The solution is used for any kind of utilization like if some machines are powered off, or some need any CPU alerts or memory alerts. So all these alerts for the issues can be received through Veeam One.

Veeam One is a centralized management and centralized reporting tool. The tool has supportive infrastructure to create specialised applications and some server application. You can add all the resources and infrastructure. You will get the reports, can easily manage and monitor any feature. 

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.

I have been working with Veeam One for three and half years. 

It is a stable solution. 

It is a scalable solution. Around sixty to hundred users are using the solution at the moment. 

The technical support team is fast, knowledgeable and customer -friendly.

The initial setup is very easy. Since Veeam One is a Software Application based solution so for the deployment one just needs to install the software in any server class. You can access it through those web browsers. There are a lot of cases where you can access the remote and also through the browser, so you can access it. No technical support is required for deployment. 

Veeam One is very famous in the market. There is no backup solution or backup for Veeam one, as the installation is easy. Almost ninety percent of the enterprises are on the installations and enrollment.

I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten.

We use the solution to back up all our products, like Exchange, SharePoint, Linux, Windows, Oracle, and SQL.

The solution has a user-friendly interface.

The solution's admin scheduling scripts need improvement. Also, import and export processes for information and policies could be better.

I have been using the solution for six months.

I rate the solution's stability as a nine.

I rate the solution's scalability as a nine.

The solution's customer support team is responsive and efficient. It resolves the issues promptly.

We have used IBM TSM and Symantec NetBackup before. In comparison, the solution is simple to use, integrates well with third-party solutions, and has dedicated technical experts.

I rate the solution as a nine out of ten.

It is used both as a virtual server and a physical server for enterprise backup that run different applications.

Recovery of backup data is the most valuable feature.

The pricing model could be improved. It can be made cheaper. Also, Veeam should provide more training for the partners so that they are able to give better support to customers. In the next release, I want to see full integration with the cloud.

I have been using the solution for more than five years.

It is a stable solution. Stability depends on the implementation. If you make an error in implementation, the environment will not be stable once you get it right through an implementation; remember, it will be stable. Most of the time, the software is very stable; it's human usage and implementation. That's why it's important to do the proper gathering of information and proper assessment of the environment before you do anything.

It is a scalable solution. I rate its scalability an eight out of ten.

Some renew, and some don't renew the support. Those who know the value of it will always renew it because if there's any issue, we can always go to the backend to get the system. After all, they're the experts on it.

The initial setup is easy. I rate its setup phase an eight out of ten. The deployment does not take more than a week once you do the initial information gathering properly. Install it on a physical server, maybe Windows or Linux, then install the clients to this agent, in other sense, if there's any agent for it on the respective servers that need the agents.

The pricing depends on the number of clients. We pay 10,00 USD per year. On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight out of ten.

It is recommended that those planning to use the solution follow the best practices for implementation. I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten.

I use the solution to backup the VMware environment and Linux servers.

The fast backup and restore feature is the most valuable.

The interface and cluster environments could be improved in the future as presently they are using agent interface instead of user interface. Also, the backup for the Oracle WAC environment can be improved.

I have been using the solution for two years.

The tool is stable. I rate it nine out of ten.

The tool is scalable. 

The technical support team is good.

Positive

Previously, I used Data Protector, EMC network test and Commvault.Veeam is the master for handling the VMware environment. If you need a backup solution to backup your virtual environment, Veeam is the one.

The initial setup is straightforward. The deployment takes one hour. One engineer can look after the deployment. After the solution is setup it hardly requires any maintenance, just time-to-time updates are required.

I have seen a Return on Investment, in terms of saving time and money.

The pricing of the solution is fair.

Veeam is a good solution and one should be committed to it.

I rate it nine out of ten.

Our primary use case is to centralize the view of different tools, specifically the vCenter and Veeam Backup and Replication.

At our organization, the main goal for using Veeam ONE is to generate reports on the backups that we perform with our other solutions.

The aggregation of logs is the most valuable feature.

Although the reporting tool is working well and does not require any additional features, there is still room for improvement in the UI. It is not easy to navigate, especially with the numerous reports available.

I have been using Veeam ONE for a year. I am using version eleven of the solution.

I would rate the stability a ten out of ten.

The scalability of Veeam ONE depends on the capabilities of the server it is installed on. I would rate its scalability as 8 out of 10.

The initial setup is straightforward.

I would rate it 10 out of 10 because it is free with the license that our organization has already purchased.

It's important to ensure that the targets they want to monitor are supported by the solution. It is a crucial consideration that needs to be taken into account before implementing Veeam ONE.

Overall, I would rate it an eight out of ten.

The most valuable features of Veeam ONE are the backup reports, such as the status of the storage.

The solution could improve the performance. We are not able to check the status of any system. Additionally, if there was an option to monitor server clusters it would be helpful.

I have been using Veeam ONE for approximately six months.

I rate the stability of Veeam ONE an eight out of ten.

We have ten engineers that are using this solution.

I rate the scalability of Veeam ONE a seven out of ten.

I contacted support when we had issues. However, the response time could improve.

I previously used SolarWinds and they had better support that was more knowledgeable and responsive.

The setup process is simple. It is user-friendly.

The price of the solution is high.

I rate the price of Veeam ONE a two out of ten.

I rate Veeam ONE a seven out of ten.
