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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Hornet offers unlimited space and time for backups as long as the subscription is continued."
"The most valuable addition recently introduced is the Continuous Data Protection feature."
"It is a very solid product with an easy UI."
"The backup features are valuable."
"Definitely one of the simplest ways to backup a virtualized infrastructure but you may not be able to fully get rid of your regular backup software if you have physical servers or specialized applications that required specific plugins that Veeam does not support."
"When it comes to service cases, I would choose Veeam Data Platform over Commvault because restoring from Commvault can be time-consuming due to filtering tasks. Veeam Data Platform, on the other hand, offers a much simpler and faster restore process."
"I like all of Veeam's features, but the most important ones are the tape backups and replication. Those are the two options available for us, and it's enough for our needs."
"We've got customers all over the spectrum, and some customers do switch to Veeam because of its ease of use and its price point."
"It lets you verify a backup with the least amount of effort."
 

Cons

"The price might be limiting for some clients in Latin America."
"Veeam has been raising its prices in the last two years, so it's now lacking some competitiveness in pricing, becoming too expensive compared to other solutions in the market."
"Veeam Data Platform should improve its air gap backup features."
"There's a lot of room for improvement surrounding the backup process."
"The product is expensive."
"Veeam is not in SaaS right now."
"For our company's usage, the price of the product is considered to be one of the major drawbacks because we have a lot of infrastructure, and its services don't fit well with our needs."
"As with any product things can break down."
"Pricing-wise, it’s expensive. However, the product is great and does what it says."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The product is expensive for small businesses."
"The price is a bit high. Licensing type is VMware friendly, so it is easy."
"Veeam ONE is cheaper when you compare it with one of its competitors in the ops space, VMware vRealize Operations. There's a separate department that deals with the licensing, but my company is using CSP licensing, which is the service provider licensing, so my company doesn't fall under the normal volume at the Veeam Universal licensing program. The cost is commit-based and depends on what your point commit is. The point commit works differently, and it's similar to your sales provider license. If you commit to using one thousand five hundred points, you get a certain price. If you commit to using the eight hundred points scheme, you get a certain price. As you grow the point scheme, you get a different price range, so it doesn't matter whether you're using Veeam One, Veeam Availability Suite, Veeam Backup and Replication, Orchestrate, or whatever the product is."
"It is more expensive than other solutions."
"The pricing is reasonable and falls within the average range."
"Veeam Data Platform's pricing is affordable."
"If you tell Veeam that you're competing with, for example, NetBackup or Backup Exec, or Dell or Micro Focus then they may lower the price. They are very competitive."
"We dont have the exact licensing costs, but we pay for a comprehensive service package that includes technical support, cloud services, and data center services. There may be additional costs beyond the standard license, but I'm not sure about the specifics. However, I believe the yearly cost is around five thousand dollars."
