Inexpensive, easy to configure, good support, and it is easy to scale up when needed

The most valuable feature is the interface, which is very nice to work with. Whether you're working on the appliance itself, or you're working on the cloud, it is basically the same interface. It got to the point where when we needed to recover a file, we didn't look at the backup solution anymore. Instead, we went right to the Datto Backupify. Using Backupify took our time to recover from probably four days to 20 minutes. With this device, you're capable of logging into the interface or through an IP address to access the data that is stored on it. Recovery can be just a matter of spinning up a virtual machine or doing a full bare metal recovery, replacing the entire hardware-based server.

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

"I'd recommend it it's a really good, straightforward, easy use system, with no hidden strings."

"The most valuable feature is the interface, which is very nice to work with."

"Using Backupify took our time to recover from probably four days to 20 minutes."

"The most valuable features are the ease of use and the fact that users themselves can self-provision and recover."

"Veeam Backup Replication is secure, they have covered almost every aspect, both in terms of security and backup and management, integration with various applications such as on-premises laptops and desktop backups as well as applications and databases is excellent, and they have added cloud integration which is a plus."

"If most, or all, of your environment is based on virtual machines and you want something that is simple to install, configure and manage but above all else, something that backs up and restores your data successfully then Veeam is your product."

"The ability to instantly recover a virtual machine as compared to several hours with previous methods."

"I used to use IBM Tivoli, and I find that the backup and restore operations are much faster with Veeam."

"It integrates easily with third-party solutions compared to other vendors."

"It lets you verify a backup with the least amount of effort."

"If you have Veeam Backup and Replication with the essential license then this solution is free."

"It's got a very good user-friendly interface. It's easy to use."

More Veeam Data Platform pros

Cons

"The device does not allow you to do multiple backups over the whole environment."

"Not a ten because there's always room for improvement."

"This is an expensive solution."

"The database backup process could be improved. It would be beneficial to enhance this feature and also consider the addition of a web interface to increase accessibility."

"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 would want them to improve some technical features that are still missing because we are working with NetApp NVMe and they're not fully supporting it yet. But both NetApp and Veeam know about it and they're working on it."

"During the initial setup especially, there's a bit of a learning curve."

"There's a lot of room for improvement surrounding the backup process."

"A different kind of scheduling. We would like to do backup twice a day."

"I would like a solution for SAP systems to be included in the next release."

More Veeam Data Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The costs were about $1,000 USD to buy the unit in the first place, and then between $250 and $300 per year for support."

"The price of Veeam Backup & Replication is high and that is why I am choosing an alternative."

"It is not expensive and I would rate it five out of ten."

"The pricing depends on the number of clients. We pay 10,00 USD per year. On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."

"The price of the solution is high."

"It is relatively cheap."

"A nice aspect of Veeam's pricing is that the cost benefit is good. It's very economical."

"It's expensive and costs about 4000 a year."

"Setup cost and licensing of Veeam are nothing to complain about when compared to similar products for enterprise backup recovery solutions."
