"It is way easier to take backup with Veeam Backup & Replication than the regular ones."

"All features of Veeam Data Platform, such as backup, immutability, and replication, are highly valuable."
"Very flexible, all-in-one solution."

"It has helped us transfer the solution in two days instead of working for a minimum of one week to ten days."
 

Cons

"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."
"The price is not the best; it is too high."
"The solution could improve by having more user-friendly dashboards."
"Limited support for environments other than VMware or Microsoft."
"Veeam needs to have more support for non-Windows systems and other databases. For example, I can do SQL with Veeam but not Informix or Oracle. This is unfortunate because we have many partners with Oracle systems and Informix databases, and Veeam does not yet have the agents we need for specific Oracle and UNIX operating systems."
"I feel that the product's support team needs improvement."
"It's not that easy to use from the management side."
"It would be beneficial to have enhanced solutions for database backup, particularly for Oracle databases in the context of SAP systems."
"Veeam currently lacks features for backing up to network-attached storage. Veeam Backup & Replication agents do not support S3 storage. Only Veeam Backup & Replication server supports S3 storage."
"The integration with other solutions should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The changes in pricing have been an interesting aspect. It seems to have become pricier, resulting in a reduction in affordability. There are extra expenses involved, including hardware requirements and the procurement of operating system licenses, which must also be taken into account. I would rate the price seven out of ten."
"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."
"I rate the pricing a five, depending on the application and environment."
"We are on an annual license for Veeam Backup Replication. We could expand or upgrade the license for the Office365 features. Next year we might go to a three-year plan for support on license."
"The cost is based on the number of core servers."
"It is approximately $4,000 to $5,000 for the purchase of the product and I paid an additional $2,000 for the renewal."
"The tool’s licensing is yearly and flexible. I would rate the solution’s pricing a seven out of ten."
"We have increased our scalability while being able to free up senior resources from recovery activities. I estimate our overall savings to about $20,000 per year."
