Veeam Data Platform Reviews

Veeam ONE is being used to monitor our backup and VM servers.

I have been using Veeam ONE for eight years.

The stability of Veeam ONE is good.

Veeam ONE is scalable.

We have four or five people in our IT company that uses the solution.

I have not contacted technical support.

The initial setup is straightforward.

We have one engineer and administrator for the deployment of the solution.

The licenses are code-based or server-based for Veeam ONE. The last version is 12, and it is host-based, I don't like to move to a code-based solution.

We pay for a license annually.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Veeam ONE an eight out of ten.

My company is an end user customer of Veeam Backup and Replication and we use it for storing and protecting our server backups.

The advantage of Veeam Backup and Replication is that it is very economical. The price is affordable and the cost benefit is good.

My main concern about Veeam is that I hope our backups will still be secure in the event of a security incident such as a ransomware attack. In Veeam version 11 they do state that there is ransomware protection, but until it has been proven to be effective, I don't have any assurance that it will prevent data loss.

Beyond improving on the security measures, I don't have further expectations for Veeam Backup and Replication.

I have been using Veeam Backup and Replication for two years. 

I have no doubts about the stability of Veeam. 

At the moment it is not necessary for us to scale up our usage of Veeam but I can say that I believe it is very capable of being scaled, should the need arise.

The support we get is very helpful, but it is not through Veeam directly. We use a Veeam partner called Netgroup Solutions to help us and they have been good.

The installation of Veeam Backup and Replication was very easy. 

A nice aspect of Veeam's pricing is that the cost benefit is good. It's very economical.

Veeam Backup and Replication is a good product and I would rate it a ten out of ten.

We are a solution provider and we deal with different backup solutions including Veeam Backup & Replication. This is something that we do on a project basis and have been doing for a long time.

We primarily use this solution for backup and replication; we buy the software and map it to our customer's requirements.

The interface is very user-friendly. The customers in my region are happy with it.

No product is 100% and there is always room for improvement. One of the downsides to Veeam is that it's just software-based. In the future, Veeam should release a hardware backup appliance that can be integrated with their software.

Better integration with other products would be an improvement.

Veeam Backup & Replication

This is a stable product.

Scalability is not an issue with this solution. There are multiple licensing options available to handle different environments. For example, there is a 10-pack of VM licenses available as an option.

Based on the communication that I have had with my peers, my understanding is that the support we have had from Veeam has been great.

We deal with Commvault, depending on the project, and we are also a distributor of Arcserve.

As a presales engineer, I have not been part of the installation.

If needed, we do the installation for our clients. Our technical process team is responsible for that.

There are multiple licensing options available to handle environments of varying sizes. The price is quite competitive compared to other products in my region.

The customer is the one that chooses the backup solution. For example, they will come to us and say "We want Veeam Backup and Replication", and then we provide the licenses to them.

This is a product that I definitely recommend for small businesses.

Overall, this is a good product but there is always room for improvement. If Veeam released a hardware appliance to work with their software, then I would rate them a ten out of ten.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

It's used to replicate the production environment from the primary side to the backup, or between two data centres.

The most important are the snapshot and the replication features. VMotion for replication of the production is useful, but it's not really important. We don't use these features every day.

I'd like to have this kind of solution, but in the Cloud environment. I think there are other solutions that address the same requirements, like Commvault, which can be used easily in AWS on the S3 environment.

This VMotion feature is not mastered by any expert and we don't use it for replication. If we are migrating and relocating the primary site to another site, we do it in two steps. So at the primary site, we switch it with the backup and then vice versa. We then relocate it to another site. When we wanted to use VMotion to make the switch from the primary site to the backup site, there were some difficulties with it. It's not reliable enough to be 100% sure that there will be no failure in the operation.

I have been using it for eight months.

Once it's in place, the product is stable.

I don't haven't enough knowledge about that yet because I've only been using it for eight months. We haven't had enough transaction volume yet.

With this solution, I have an integrator helping me with all the infrastructure. I rely a lot on these experts because they know the solution very well.

It was quite difficult to put this solution in place and I don't think we use all the features, like VMotion. 

I would rate this solution a five out of ten. 

VM is suited for small and medium enterprises. In big enterprises with a complex IT infrastructure, the solution is not suitable. 

It's used for all of our virtual environment backups. We use it in all kinds of IT, with over 3000 employees.

I like that it's easy to operate and restore.

For additional features, I'd say having integration backup through hybrid cloud.

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

It's a stable solution.

The solution is scalable.

If we need support, we call the Veeam branch office in our country.

Initial setup is straightforward. 

It was deployed by the reseller.

We have a yearly license.

We were approached by Commvault and Veritas solution vendors, but for now, Veeam is good enough.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.  

Maintenance is done with the SI (System Integrator). 

We use this solution for backup. Our company is a customer of Veeam and I'm the assistant manager and provide risk advisory services. 

This is a user-friendly solution and I'm very comfortable with it. 

I'd like to see better training offered online. 

The solution is stable. 

The solution is scalable. 

The initial setup is straightforward and our deployment was done in-house. We have three people using the solution. 

I recommend this solution and rate it nine out of 10. 

The solution provides backup for my virtual infrastructure. We are customers of Veeam and I'm an IT manager. 

The interface is user-friendly and the solution works quickly. It's also quite helpful for restoring. If there's an instance where I don't need to restore, I can easily copy-paste and that is a useful feature. It's simple to schedule jobs on Veeam and get whatever details you need, it really fulfills all our requirements. 

It's sometimes difficult identifying the resources for backup and I think that could be improved. I'd also like to see more detailed reporting. 

I've been using this solution for almost four years. 

The solution is stable. 

The solution is scalable. 

We haven't really needed to contact customer service. 

We previously used a different solution and switched to Veeam because it works faster, the recovery process is very quick, and it's easily scalable. 

The initial setup wasn't too easy or too difficult. We had an integrator who helped us and it was a seamless process. Deployment took less than a day but integrating and customizing took some time, not only because of Veeam but as a result of the process involved in migrating from the previous solution. We have one person dealing with maintenance. We're using Veeam on 10 servers. 

We have been using this product for the past three to four years now, and we have well and truly recovered the cost of implementing it.

Licensing costs are reasonable.  

I rate this solution eight out of 10. 

We have scheduled the backup to be done on our side. At certain intervals, depending on the capability of Veeam, we are doing the replication at a remote site on the same cluster that we use Nutanix as a backup. Basically, we have a Nutanix cluster taking backup of another Nutanix cluster. Outside of this, we are also using Veeam, which is on another machine, or basically another storage.

We have 19 Veeam running on a four-node cluster. Currently, we are using 80% of our RAM capacity and have more CPU and storage available, we still have capacity.

Before using Veeam and HCI, we were performing the functions physically. We used physical machines to run our services. Hardware failure leads to the pillar of our services. Now we have high organization and we can sustain any failure. 

We have found the Veeam function very useful because it saves us a lot of storage.

Veeam Backup Replication's snapshotting and cloning are the most valuable features.

I have been using Veeam Backup for a year and a half.

Veeam is a stable solution.

Veeam is scalable. We can add nodes to scale up, it's a scale of architecture.

We receive very good support from Nutanix.

Prior to Veeam we had physical machines that required manual backup.

The initial setup of Veeam is very straightforward. It took one month to get the production. After the initial deployment, we had to migrate our Veeam from physical to virtual so that took another two months.

We received help from the OEM. After set up it is easy to manage ourselves without help from OEM or any system user.

We have seen a return on our investment within two years. Prior to Veeam, we were doing the work physically, which is costly. We had to buy hardware every time we needed a new service to go to production. Now we have the cluster and can immediately deploy a new Veeam and be up and running immediately.

Veeam Backup Replication is a one time subscription for five years.

We evaluated other options from VMware, Cisco Hyper-V and Nutanix. 

The cost needs to be considered.

I would rate Veeam Backup Replication an 8 out of 10.
