Plenty of useful feature and reliable
We use Asigra for backups I have found all the features useful in the solution. I have been using Asigra for approximately two months. The solution is stable. The six people in our IT department are using the solution. The initial setup was a medium difficulty level. Some parts were complex…

Backup policies have strengthened security and replication but still need flexible long-term retention
The support and compatibility are areas of concern. When it comes to Azure workloads, Veeam Data Platform has limitations with only MS SQL database and Cosmos, and no other databases are supported by Veeam Backup for Azure. The main challenge I noticed is that enterprise customers may have a requirement to retain backups for 10 years or 15 years with monthly and weekly backups. In Veeam Data Platform, we do not have customization or compatibility to retain specific data backups as monthly and yearly. The retention schedule is fixed. For instance, it is the first Friday of the backup or the last Friday of the month. If it is weekly, it should be one of the weeks. If it is monthly, it should be the last Friday. For yearly, it is the last Friday of that respective month in that year. However, this should not be the case. When a customer confirms, 'Please go and take an EOD backup and retain it for 10 years,' Veeam Data Platform does not support this sort of customization. I even raised a case with Veeam Data Platform and they clearly stated that Veeam Data Platform only accepts the GFS policy according to the retention defined, and there is no customization available. This is a significant limitation. I should have the customization to go and take a backup of a specific date, month, or year, but Veeam Data Platform does not allow this and restricts me to only the policy supported. For example, if I take any backup, I do not have an option to extend the retention. If a customer asks, 'Please take a backup,' and later requests, 'No, it is very critical. Can you please extend the retention for 15 years?' Veeam Data Platform does not support this. Veeam Data Platform does not allow me to extend the retention in the way other tools do. These are limitations I came across in my experience, and I feel these are minimal requirements. The same features are offered by other third-party backup tools available in the market. From the analytics point of view, I personally feel some challenges. Veeam Data Platform has two different products: VBR and Veeam Backup for Azure. As we are running on cloud platforms, if we are in Azure, we must go for Veeam Backup for Azure. If we need to create copy jobs, I must again come to VBR. However, Veeam ONE is not capable enough to integrate both platforms. For instance, if I am taking backup of workloads through Veeam Backup for Azure, I could not find an option to integrate it into Veeam ONE for reports and analytics. It is only limited to VBR. Whatever jobs we created in VBR are displayed there, but Veeam Backup for Azure does not integrate, at least from what I have explored, and it should not be this way. Veeam ONE should support all Veeam Data Platform products.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Virtual Disaster Recovery in version 13 is a game-changer, especially for VMWare shops."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"Cloud backup is easier to manage and administer than our previous tape solution."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"Since we have implemented Asigra we don’t have an administrator to do manual backup to tapes and external HDD; everything is automated and there are no hassles for the administrator."
"Asigra’s multi-tenancy feature is most valuable as it allows the company to on-sell a private cloud backup and recovery solution to existing customers."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"The tool is fast and trustworthy."
"I have been in contact with technical support and they are very good."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is a great alternative to what is out there. Some of the backups just allow an agent backup to the cloud. You can back up a thousand different ways, but this is a great way to keep a customer and a company in compliance in that they've got their data secure onsite and offsite. The data being transferred to the NAS at the customer's location and also the data being sent to the cloud is encrypted in transit and it's also encrypted at rest so that nobody is going to be able to hack into that. No one will have the keys to do that."
"It's a very straight forward software that does not require technical intervention."
"With Veeam Backup and Replication, we have closed the time it would take to recover from a VM failure."
"Veeam ONE is the best and the most mature solution for hypervisors and physical machines."
"Very reliable and easy to use."
"The most important features of backups are them being able to make sure they're reliable, and that whatever you need to restore you have access to, and Veeam offers us that."
 

Cons

"They should have 24/7 support for customers in different time zones. They are slow to respond to requests, and I get the impression that the ServiceDesk is overloaded."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"I wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"The management could be a bit better."
"The integration with other solutions should be improved."
"The threshold could be easier to configure."
"I am highly dissatisfied with their customer support approach."
"The price is an issue. If one has a large number of servers, say... 100-plus, and wishes to add more, an exhausted budget may hinder this ability."
"I would like to see the replication and a recovery plan of the servers in the cloud. It's very important."
"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."
"The cloud backups from Veeam Backup Replication have not been good. Addiotnaally, the backups of Office 365 and the overall performance can always be improved."
"The price can be a bit expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
"The product must improve its pricing."
"This is an expensive solution and came at a higher cost than expected."
"The pricing structure for Veeam ONE has changed to what is now called the "VUL" or "Universal License". Previously, people mainly used socket licenses, but this has now changed. The new pricing structure was introduced last year."
"The price is quite competitive compared to other products in my region."
"This solution requires a license and the organizations I was involved in were using an enterprise license."
"It's an extremely cost-effective solution."
"When I did a tech refresh, we took out a subscription for the coming five years."
"The license cost is per socket, per processor. We can have one license with two processors and we can cover everything inside of the test environment that we have."
