A backup solution with better reporting and easy configuration
We were looking to replace our backup software and started doing a POC. During the POC, we realized the benefits of Clumio, especially given our small team. We always look for solutions that are easily manageable and not cumbersome. Clumio offers an easy interface, is simple to set up, and is easy to maintain. It provides a way to get daily reports directly from the software. Clumio has a straightforward setup; it involves deploying an OVF agent and connecting it to the cloud. Once connected, it begins backing up to the cloud. You can easily go to the cloud console and specify which servers need backups, and it starts the process. Different policies can be defined and assigned to servers, making the process much easier. Clumio also sends daily report emails, so every morning, we receive a report detailing what was successfully backed up and what failed. Their support is also good. If a backup fails twice, they proactively open a ticket and contact to resolve the issue.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Clumio has a straightforward setup"
"I like Veeam a lot because it solves problems, is stable, and runs very well."
"The backup and replication features are most valuable."
"It is a rock-solid backup solution. That's all, and that's what we were asking for."
"A simple and stable solution for small businesses that use virtualization."
"It's not complex to replicate and back up the system."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to restore the VMs into a test environment."
"I think that the scalability is very good. We can't compare it."
"The most beneficial aspect of Veeam ONE is the ability to track your company's growth on a month-to-month basis. With this tool, you can determine if you need to purchase more target storage or if you have enough. This is essential for budgeting purposes, as, without this information, you may discover too late that you require additional storage or that your cloud usage is not aligning with what you are being charged. Veeam ONE aids in forecasting and usage analysis, making it a valuable asset."
 

Cons

"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"Lacks online training."
"Additional executive summary reports for the entire infrastructure would be a nice to have."
"I feel that the product's support team needs improvement."
"When you have to renew the licenses you sometimes have some trouble getting rid of the old one and reassigning it to the new one. That's an aspect that could run smoother and could be better."
"It would be beneficial to have enhanced solutions for database backup, particularly for Oracle databases in the context of SAP systems."
"Veeam ONE could improve by having capacity planning, intelligent automatization, and ransomware."
"The only issue on which we would like to see for improvement would be, potentially, the ability to do some different things with recovery, like faster recovery onsite."
"The solution could improve by having more user-friendly dashboards."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We use the community edition of the Veeam Backup Replication and it is a software-based license. It can be a little expensive."
"I would suggest to others that they buy the full license when purchasing this solution."
"The license subscription could be more straightforward."
"The price of the solution is high."
"When it comes to pricing for a backup solution for data centers, you do not care about the price. We just care about the service and want it to be reliable. In terms of subscription, it really makes sense. When you want to use all the functionalities it is good that Veeam did the subscription-based model, this is what gives it the most strength on the price."
"Since pricing is per socket, it is not expensive to add capacity as you go along."
"It is more cost-effective than some of the other solutions, but a lot of that comes down to the fact that we're a reseller. So, depending upon the deal, we do negotiate different price points for different customers. The price varies depending upon the size of the customer, the size of the deal, and the discounts we can negotiate."
"We spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on Veeam each year, although it is not expensive for what we get."

VMware SRM vs. Veeam vs. Zerto
