Veeam Data Platform Reviews

The ability to manage backups from any machine from one location.

We’ve taken the human out of the equation when it comes to our backups. This means backups run when they should, like they should.

None since the release of endpoint backup management.

I've been using it for over two years.

No issues encountered.

It's wonderful - 10/10.

It's wonderful - 10/10.

We previously used Symantec Backup Exec, it was cumbersome, didn’t handle our virtual machines, and kept us on tape backups.

Straightforward, with a very intuitive setup and layout.

We did it in-house.

Given this is Backup & Replication, the ROI is similar to that of an insurance plan - priceless when needed, but no monetary benefit until such time. Still worth every penny for the peace of mind.

No other options were evaluated.

Go for it, you’ll never regret it.

Replication, Sure Backup and Instant Recovery; very easy to use.

Real and fast restore and if needed a VM Instant Restore(1/2m).

Speed and more management.

I have used and given support of this product for my clients for around 4/5 years.

No.

Some Speed and data, that we fix along the way.

No.

1 to 10, I give an 8.

1 to 10, I give an 8.

Yes, HP and Symantec. Veeam is a product more specific for Virtual Environments.

Straightforward.

The setup and implementation was done by ourselves.

20k € initial cost.

Yes, HP and Symantec.

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.

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.

The clients are using the solution for backup and restore and also for replication. The new model also has the management of virtual servers.

It's one of the most stable offerings.

The product is very straightforward and very easy to use from the client-side.

The solution is scalable. 

The initial setup is very straightforward. 

It's not that easy to use from the management side. 

The solution needs to improve its traditional backups. They back up data as others do at the moment - however, it's not as good. Also, restoring is very fast, however, they need some improvement in deduplication. 

It's more the management in the level of replication. There needs to be a much higher level of replication. Right now, it's a basic replication in the secondary site. The recovery needs to be much faster as recovery is very important. The fastest recovery is from Rubrik.

Rubrik is the fastest recovery backup solution, and Cohesity is the same as it depends on the hardware which they have. 

Veeam should come with the hardware as others, like Cohesity, come with the hardware. 

We've been using the solution for five years. It's been a while. 

The product is very stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable and the performance is good.

You can scale it easily. Every time you need to buy a new license, you just add more licenses, and that's it.

At the moment, all of our customers are using Veeam. We have more than 20 customers.

We don't use technical support very much, however, my sense is they're okay. I cannot say something more precise, as we didn't really use it.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. It's not complex or difficult. The deployment process takes about an hour or so.

To set up and deploy the solution, you only need a maximum of two people - one consultant and one assistant.

I didn't study ROI. Return of investment has to do with disaster recovery. This is one of the best solutions, Veeam, to retrieve machines if a disaster happens. If one site goes, and you have replication with Veeam, your company can continue on without loss.

The customer needs to pay for Veeam. They need to pay a license per virtual machine, and the cost depends on how many virtual machines they want to back up.

We also are a partner of Cohesity, and we've evaluated the two. The main difference is Cohesity comes with hardware.

The license is based on the capacity of the space where the backup stays, and also is very straightforward, much like Veeam. They are straightforward, and it's very, very, very powerful, however, you really depend on the hardware. This is a different way of licensing.

Veeam is very straightforward, however, licensing is for virtual machines, how many you have. That means sometimes in the environment if you have lots of machines, virtual machines, it is better to use Cohesity as you can add as many virtual machines as you want and the license is always based on the capacity of the hardware where it stays.

We are resellers. We are gold partners with Veeam.

We sell only the latest version of the solution.

I recommend both Veeam and Cohesity, however, depends on how your environment is.

I'd rate the product at a ten out of ten.

We moved to Veeam to have complete virtualization. It's perfect for us. It virtualized our workflows. Veeam is used to support only virtual machines and does not back up to our physical machines.

The best feature of Veeam is, first and foremost, the support they provide. They are at the top in support. The support is excellent. 

It's got a very good user-friendly interface. It's easy to use.

The training is excellent. of Veeam. I'm from the Middle East. Veeam is very accurate out here and they have very good training facilities over here. On my team, everybody's trained on Veeam.

I'm really happy with Veeam. As of now, we have never had any issues with Veeam. It has performed perfectly.

It's a very mature product.

The only thing which was lacking was the support, some years back, for the cloud connect. It's matured now and has become a very reliable product.

I would like to have is better documentation. Veeam documentation is something that needs to be worked on. The training program is very good, however, they need to have better work documentation.

Also, very few third parties have courses on Veeam. Veeam only provides co-courses. For example, everybody has got courses about Cisco or Microsoft. Veeam is very closed on that factor. If they want to really popularize the software, they need to have more training, and the training should be more widely available via third parties.

The cost is a hindrance towards learning for certifying in Veeam. They need to make it more open and less expensive to open it up for more companies and users.

On individual user backups, there are certain people who have got individual PCs and they have data on them. Veeam is not up to that mark. There is other software we use which is much better than Veeam when it comes to individual data protection. I would like to have them come up with more robust features when it comes to individual endpoint protection.

I've been working with data protection for 15 to 20 years. I recently moved to Veeam. We've used it now for seven or eight years. 

As of now, it has never given us any issue, in my personal experience. Veeam is a very robust product. There has never been any problem and there have not been any downtimes, so we have absolutely nothing to complain about. It's a good product.

We are a hundred-person virtualized shop. We have close to 250 users. We have continuous data protection.

Veeam has been extensively used in our company as all our servers are getting backed up. We have some six to seven ESXi hosts. Between all our servers, we have some 30 to 35 VMs. Veeam is a very integral part of our data strategy out here.

They have different tiers - from a free tier to an enterprise tier. With the new updates, it's very scalable. 

Technical support has always been great. They're the best in the business and are very helpful and supportive.

We don't directly deal with Veeam. We have an MSP who supports us on our network. However, we have never had any issues with Veeam. If there are any issues, it's sorted out immediately.

I started with Symantec and have recently moved to Veeam. I'm also familiar with Commvault.

When you're really looking at enterprise, I personally would go for Commvault. That's a product that is built for the enterprise. Veeamis aimed t smaller businesses. 

The initial setup is very simple. It's just a user-driven thing. It's very, very simple.

It's not as complicated as Commvault. Commvault is a little complicated. However, with Veeam, when it comes to user-friendliness, it's a brilliant product.

Maintenance is easy. It's not a problem at all. It's handled by a third-party provider that is a partner of Veeam.

We currently have ten to 15 different licenses. I can't speak to the exact details as it's mostly handled by the IT operations team.

Beyond the licensing, the only cost which we have incurred, which was a little too much, was the training. In our company, people need to be certified as we basically go for internal competence and upscaling our people, as a team. However, Veeam certifications are costly. That is one thing that was a little bit of a pain point for us.

We are just a customer of Veeam.

I recommend Veeam very highly. It's a very mature product.

If you have a virtualized environment, which 99% of the people have virtualized environments now, it's perfect. Veeam is something which is built for virtualization.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for backups in the virtualization area. They are experts in virtualization. For a lot of use cases, the customer doesn't have a backup in their virtualization for VMware HyperV or Nutanix. We are using Veeam to back up their virtualization. 

They are the second-best backup after Veritas. 

Veeam is easy to set up and they have a simple UI for users to set up and administer the Veeam console.  

Veeam has low pricing. They are great for a smaller market or smaller business all the way through to enterprise-sized companies. It's scalable. In Indonesia, maybe two of our telco companies use Veeam and they have a lot of the market in Indonesia.

The solution's initial setup is easy.

It's a stable solution.

They need to improve their technical side. They don't have a lot of compatibility with Solar HP-UX, IX, or SAP. They still need to have a lot of improvement in that area.

They need to make their Office 365 backup is included in one console with the backup replication. It will be easier that way and place it in line with the Veritas NetBackup offering.

We have found the product to be quite stable. It's not buggy. There aren't glitches. It's reliable. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

The product can scale well. It's great for small businesses to larger enterprises. 

Since Veeam is easy to use and easy to set up, we don't have a lot of problems. Therefore, we don't have a lot of experience with their support. We've never had a reason to contact them. Due to this, I can's speak to how helpful or responsive they are. 

I am familiar with Veritas as well.

The solution is straightforward and simple to set up. It's not a complex or difficult process. A company shouldn't have any issues implementing it. 

The pricing is very good. They are very affordable, even for smaller businesses.

We are a Veeam partner. We're partners with a variety of organizations.

We use various deployment models, including public and private cloud, on-premises, and hybrid setups. 

I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten. We are quite pleased with its capabilities. 

We are using the latest update at the moment. 

We use the solution to do backups and replication between sites, in addition to restores. We employ it solely for its basic functions.

The restore capabilities are the most valuable features.

Veeam Backup & Replication should include a cloud solution. 

The cost should also be adressed. This would bring up my rating from a seven to a ten out of ten. 

We have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for eight to 10 years.

The solution is stable and reliable.

The solution is easy to scale. 

We have yet to make need of technical support, although I feel it to be good. 

I believe the initial setup to have been straightforward, although I cannot say this with certainty, as I was not involved in it. 

While I don't know the exact parameters of the maintenance, I do know that all of our support needs in this respect are covered. 

Maintenance is handled by a third party. We do not have a separate team for handling this. 

While I do not know how much the product cost, as I was not involved in this sphere, I do know that this could be better. 

There are probably just three to five of us using the solution, solely in the IT department. 

I would recommend the solution to others for its ease-of-use. 

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