Has improved data reliability while requiring better pricing and localized support
The most valuable features of Arcserve OneXafe are improving persistent data, which I believe is very important. I use other products too, not only Arcserve OneXafe; we use TrueNAS as well. I have utilized Arcserve OneXafe's data deduplication feature. It helps my storage efficiency significantly. The product satisfaction with this product helps with storage efficiency. Regarding Arcserve OneXafe's immutable object storage helping against ransomware, the call was not clear, and I had difficulty listening to what was discussed. Arcserve OneXafe improves precision of data. I have used Arcserve OneXafe's continuous data protection. This is beneficial for operational continuity because we use it constantly. I have no objections to Arcserve OneXafe technology; I think that is very good.

Backup operations have become reliable and reporting now simplifies hybrid cloud protection
Veeam Data Platform has Veeam Enterprise Manager as well as Veeam ONE as valuable features, which allow us to generate various kinds of reports that are required for the customer. Instant VM Recovery is a good feature of the high-speed recovery features in Veeam Data Platform, and Continuous Data Protection (CDP) is also a good feature. Ransomware protection is a good feature added in Veeam Data Platform from version 12 onwards, and the ability to create immutable repositories is also a good feature in Veeam. The analytics part of Veeam Data Platform is a good solution because I have worked on various backup technologies such as EMC NetWorker and NetBackup. However, I have not used the analytical parts currently but will check it out. Streamlining processes as well as saving money are benefits that Veeam Data Platform provides for the end user, as it allows for application-aware backups and database backups without the need for various kinds of licenses that other backup software requires. Veeam offers socket-based licenses, instance-based licenses, and capacity-based licenses, which is a great feature.

Pros

"The most valuable features of Arcserve OneXafe are improving persistent data, which I believe is very important, and I have utilized Arcserve OneXafe's data deduplication feature, which helps my storage efficiency significantly."
"The simplicity and the ability to perform small backups are the most effective features for data protection in Arcserve OneXafe."
"One of the most valuable features is the incremental backup. It is, of course, perfect because you have a lot of restore points, but you don't need all the space. The stability is also perfect."
"The solution's best features are its ease of use and replication, which works fine."
"It is cost-effective. A lot of times, people pick Veeam because of its price."
"I think Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) is an excellent solution for ensuring user-side disaster recovery. It involves a platform on-premise, which can be replicated to another site. It's a very effective solution, and we prioritize both the FTO and the FTO."
"Once you get it set up, everything is smooth, and the recovery is excellent."
"I can't think of any improvements yet for Veeam because they are very good. It integrates very well with Microsoft applications. It is very easy to integrate. Micro Focus can also integrate but it's more complex. You have to know the product very well to be able to integrate. While Veeam, it's very user-friendly. You don't need to have certifications or anything to work on Veeam."
"Let me start by mentioning that, before Veeam, my company used to backup data with Microsoft Robocopy; backup times now are more than ten times faster and the data to be moved is only a fraction."
"This product has significantly reduced our backup windows as backup times have been significantly reduced, as well as the speed at which we can recover systems if needed."
 

Cons

"The price is not the best; it is too high."
"Arcserve OneXafe is not used in many cases in the market that we work in."
"The price is not the best; it is too high. It's not the best solution in terms of price, although the solution itself is good."
"They need to improve their technical side."
"With Veeam v7 in conjunction with vSphere 5.5 using vSphere Flash Read Cache (vFRC), I started seeing issues with Veeam backups either failing or VM Snapshots constantly needing consolidation."
"The user interface needs to be improved. It could be simpler to use."
"It would be helpful if there was something that could assist you in managing the database more effectively."
"In Linux, I suggest you backup for a PostgreSQL database."
"Just keep in mind its functionality because, as of now, it is limited to VMs."
"They could improve the product's response times for technical support and enhance support for newer hypervisors."
"Support for containers, and agent-less KVM backups, and Citrix environments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price of the solution could improve when comparing it to competitors. The market is very competitive and they should have some discounts or special offers."
"My understanding is that it is a fairly small price point."
"There is a license required for this solution and the price is a bit expensive but it depends on the environment that you have on how much it will cost."
"Room for improvement is actually more in the way of licensing. The really good and useful features are in the Enterprise plus edition, and that one is really expensive."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."
"It's the market price. It isn't expensive, nor is it cheap."
"The price is pretty cheap for our market."
"The tool’s licensing is yearly and flexible. I would rate the solution’s pricing a seven out of ten."
