Easy to setup, good support and stable product
When we started, we used Acronis for both cloud and on-premises backups. Protege was a reliable solution, and the cloud-focused approach is well-suited for our current needs. If you require both cloud and on-premises backup capabilities, Acronis is a more comprehensive solution. For solely cloud-based backups, Protege is a solid option.

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

"Since it is on the cloud, it is a very stable solution."
"I used to use IBM Tivoli, and I find that the backup and restore operations are much faster with Veeam."
"Nothing beats Veeam when it comes to Backup in a virtual environment."
"I love the ability to either restore the entire VM or just a single file if needed."
"Veeam Is very useful for most environments and can scale up in most environments - such as Amazon or Azure."
"The good thing about the solution is that it's easy to understand, implement and take back data and resources."
"Coming from tape backup environment to using Veeam and cloud upload dramatically changed and improved our backup process."
"The solution's recovery process is very smooth."
"I am a specialist in Veeam, and my clients optimized their recovery procedure, and it now requires less time to restore services."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement would be expanding its capabilities beyond Azure-specific backups."
"The cost of the product is an area that would prevent me from using it in the future."
"I feel that the product's support team needs improvement."
"I like the Acronis backup solutions on the block-based part of backups. That is a functionality that Veeam does not provide."
"It still doesn't feel like a fully mature solution because it's not exactly ready for very large scale and complex environments with more than 1000 VMs."
"Client/agent for non-virtualized servers: This can be improved by integrating them in the same way as the virtual servers and integrating them into the same backup jobs."
"Moving backup repositories and merging backup chains is either difficult or not possible as far as I know in the current release of Veeam Backup and Replication."
"Backing up Exchange could be better, particularly Clustered Exchange."
"It would be beneficial to have enhanced solutions for database backup, particularly for Oracle databases in the context of SAP systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Its price is reasonable for a big company or a big client. It is not too much. It is cheaper than VMware."
"The pricing is good and affordable."
"Although our license includes support, we have only really used the support when we were using Veeam for Active Directory. The rest of the time, we find Veeam easy enough to use without paying extra support fees."
"The price of Veeam Backup & Replication is reasonable compared to IBM."
"Veeam has been raising its prices in the last two years, so it's now lacking some competitiveness in pricing."
"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."
"The price of Veeam Backup Replication is reasonable."
"It's expensive and costs about 4000 a year."
