Veeam Data Platform Reviews

We are familiar with all the versions. As resellers we can sell any version of the solution. 

Our use cases involve  Veeam or Hyper V infrastructure. They concern physical servers, Office 365, complete solution specs, a mold self, the Como workloads and Oracle SAP.

One of the most valuable features is the simplicity of the solution's administration. I like its rental capabilities, as well as the backup data, replication abilities, in respect of the current Veeam or the backup servers to the Cloud provider. Disaster recovery is also simple and very easy to manage. 

While the Veeam Backup Replication tool can mostly back up all the data in the environment, the AIX from IBM backup capabilities nowadays could stand improvement as they are not featured on a single pane of glass. A consultation is required for its administration. As such, the integration of AIX would be welcome. 

While Veeam Backup & Replication is a complete solution, it would be nice to have the Veeam server on Linux. The availability of the Server Manager only on Windows installation should be addressed.  

I have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for around two or three years.

The solution is stable and allows for ease of use. 

The solution is very scalable. Once the license is attended to, there is not much need to concern oneself with new implementations or changes to the installation process. As such the solution is scalable, stable and very friendly to use.

I rate the technical support as a ten out of ten. Veeam boasts a wide documentation forum in which most issues can be resolved. When there is a need to engage their support services, we have found them to be straightforward and very quick to resolve the issue. 

Taking into account the setups and boss configurations, the deployment takes from two to three days and is very simple to do. With the right partner it can be accomplished pretty quickly and simply. 

Deployment and maintenance involves two or three people. It is quite easy. 

We evaluated ARC server and Capizec. We are a reseller and implementation company, so we handle both of these aspects as concerns the software of many different back up tools, but Veeam lags far behind the competition. The others use WAN and are our first choice. 

In comparison with Veeam Backup & Replication, the license form and attendant specs of the competitors make things quite easy. 

I truly like the solution. It is easy, fast and reliable when it comes to growth. 

While our parent company has the solution on-premises, we also sell it as a service, as we are Veeam partners. 

We have a variety of client types and sizes. 

We use Veeam to back up our customer's processes. We use it to save and store data and to replicate it from one site to another for data replication and disaster recovery.

In total, about 30 employees use this solution. 

The replication feature has proven to be the most valuable feature for us.

The backup feature is good, but the replication as a technology at the time we chose Veeam was really effective.

Also, this solution is extremely user-friendly. They recently added a new reporting feature which has been really good. 

Overall, it's a great technology; it's a great product. But Veeam has always been dedicated to the virtual environment — mostly the Intel virtual environment. In our market, the Italian market, there are many companies that have legacy environments that need to be backed up, and sometimes Veeam is not that effective when it comes to legacy environments.

Veeam Backup & Replication is very stable and reliable. 

We installed it on-prem according to our customer's specifications. I would say it's a good product with fine scalability. I've never tried it in a very large environment, so I can't speak for large enterprises; however, I do know that some large companies use it.

The customer service is good and reliable.

The initial setup was very easy.

We resell perpetual licenses. We sell monthly licenses, too. Although the pricing could always be better, I'd say it's fair — it's not overpriced. 

Veeam Backup & Replication is a great product for a virtual environment — it's really effective.

From a technical point of view, it's very effective — I think they're doing great. Year after year, they announce many new features; they are definitely keeping up to date with the times. Many of their competitors have also released some sort of hardware as a repository together with their software. Still, I think that Veeam will stay software-only, which is fine. I think they're doing good.

Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give Veeam Backup & Replication a rating of eight. 

I am using the solution in a virtual environment for backup and replication.

I have found the most valuable feature to be the new CDP features. It is very popular for my customer's needs. 

Additionally, the solution is user-friendly.

There is some complexity we have experienced when using the solution that should be simplified.

I have been using this solution for approximately three years.

The solution is stable.

We have used the technical support and they are very good. We receive a resolution at a high priority.

The installation was easy.

The price of Veeam Backup and Replication is expensive.

I rate Veeam Backup & Replication a nine out of ten.

We have found instant recovery to be a valuable feature. 

There should be better use of the external hard drives. 

We have been using Veeam Backup and Replication for the past year. 

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable. 

I consider the solution's technical support to be excellent, perfect.

While I used to work with other products whose names I cannot recall, I prefer to work with those of Veeam.

The initial setup was easy.

The price of the solution could be lower.

We pay for the solution annually, particularly as relates to the cloud version.

The solution is deployed both on-premises and to the cloud.

There are 1,500 people making use of it.

We require one person for its maintenance.

While the documentation is good enough, it should be properly read. A person should read the manual and be experienced with the infrastructure of his computers and company servers.

I rate Veeam Backup and Replication as an eight out of ten.

I have no use cases of which to speak concerning the solution. Veeam ONE is a data center product and is not used by users, just for infrastructure purposes.

The support, reporting features, and customization should all be improved. 

I have been using and providing Veeam ONE for a couple of years. I am using the latest version, which was implemented last month.

Customer support should be improved. 

The initial setup was straightforward. It took ten minutes.

I rate Veeam ONE as a five out of ten.

I would not recommend the solution to someone considering its implementation. 

The solution can be used for backing up data such as virtual machines, data servers, and applications.

We was concern about ransomware attack and with Veeam now we are protected. Thnaks Veeam

I have found one of the most valuable features to be the integrity of the backups. It does a great job at taking backups of physical servers and doing replications. The integration with their storage is done well.

I think backing up from physical servers and ransomware security needs some improvements. However, they have improved in the newer release by encrypting the backup server.

In upcoming releases, I do not want the UI to change, this is important for individuals using the solution. If there are many changes then they have to keep learning the UI over and over again making it difficult.

I have been using the solution for approximately five years.

The solution is stable.

In my experience, I have found the solution to be stable. You are able to scale out to repositories well. You can add all servers together as a bundle and use them as a scale-out repository. 

The technical support is great. They have comprehensive FAQ information that can be searched for whatever your needs are.

I have used Veritas in the past and it does a better job at backing up servers.

The installation is simple, it takes less than 15 minutes.

This solution requires a license and the organizations I was involved in were using an enterprise license.

I would recommend using this solution to others.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a ten out of ten.

We currently use Veeam Backup & Replication in our own environment. Veeam is very useful  with the share analysis and with what I get from Reporter. It's very smooth to use. Even the restoration is amazing. The replication feature capabilities are very good. It's useful for Windows products; Exchange, Express, and the like. I'm not sure how they could compete with another product, but it's better. Currently, we are just using this solution on our own site, but not yet integrating for customers. We are integrators of Veeam. 

I really like the Sandbox feature, it's like a power tool for troubleshooting.

I'd like to see the pricing improved, it's currently an expensive solution. 

Veeam is very stable.

This is a very scalable solution. 

Technical support is very effective. They respond quickly, faster than Dell. 

The initial setup is very easy, it took us around 30 minutes and required one person for deployment.

The licensing of this product is expensive.

I would definitely recommend this product.

I rate this solution a nine out of 10. 

We use the solution mainly for backup and redundancies. We keep historical VM images and replicate them to other data centers that we have.

The solution works well in two different environments, whether it is on-premises, cloud, or a combination.

If you do not use the standard software and you go with a third-party solution such as this one, it might not work the same. There is an integration issue I understand between the database standards.

Additionally, the solution can be difficult to manage if you do not have the training.

I have been using the solution for approximately three years.

The stability of the solution is good.

We have deployed this solution mostly in medium to large size businesses.

The installation is very straightforward.

When it comes to pricing for a backup solution for data centers, you do not care about the price. We just care about the service and want it to be reliable. In terms of subscription, it really makes sense. When you want to use all the functionalities it is good that Veeam did the subscription-based model, this is what gives it the most strength on the price.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication an eight out of ten.
