Prominent pros & cons

PROS

Veritas Alta SaaS Protection is easy to work with and not resource-intensive.
The duplication feature is highly valuable.
Its scalability is enhanced by a useful hardware appliance.
SaaS Backup effectively covers all modules proposed by Office 365.
It is loaded with features, ready to integrate with cloud environments.

CONS

Technical support needs significant improvement and more assistance is required for specific client implementations like Oracle or SQL servers.
The implementation process could be improved, as some features lack support for flexibility and maintainability, especially as companies scale.
Veritas Alta SaaS Protection only allows backups to its own cloud, lacking support for major cloud providers such as GCP, Azure, and AWS.
Licensing is complex and confusing, requiring versatility and sophistication, while many features are sold as separate add-ons.
Performance issues exist, especially in terms of job completion time, and there is no solution for recovering files post-contract, requiring an additional database for file recovery.

Veritas is loaded with features because the appliance is ready to integrate with the cloud in cases where the customers have a hybrid or cloud environment.

I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope.

It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field.

Some of the tool's best features include an enhanced dashboard and strong security features compared to native Veritas. Our environment is entirely automated.

The usability of the solution isn't the best.

The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with.

When you finish a project, the client should have the opportunity to browse the files rather than simply ending the contract. Also, it's not possible to recover earlier versions. It should be possible to have a database for recovering files after you finish a contract. There's no solution for this from Veritas.

Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS.

Licensing has been a struggle. It went from bronze, silver to gold. Licensing needs more sophistication. It has features that are sold as separate add-ons.

The tool can be improved in terms of maintainability and flexibility, especially as companies grow larger. In these aspects, I feel Veeam is better for cloud and operational purposes.
