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.

We use Veeam Data to back up our VMware infrastructure Veeam Data Platform is valuable for its stability and the ability to easily contact support for assistance. The support team provides answers whenever we need them. It is also one of the most scalable backup solutions I've worked with. The…

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."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"The solution works well in two different environments, whether it is on-premises, cloud, or a combination."
"I think Veeam ONE is great as it is, it does everything I need."
"The initial setup is simple to do in Veeam Backup Replication."
"Veeam One is a centralized management and centralized reporting tool. The tool has supportive infrastructure to create specialised applications and some server application. You can add all the resources and infrastructure. You will get the reports, can easily manage and monitor any feature."
"The most valuable feature is the internal recovery."
"The solution's most valuable feature is that its reports are detailed compared to other tools."
"The most valuable aspect is its reliability in recovering any replaceable data in the event of server issues in a production environment."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement would be expanding its capabilities beyond Azure-specific backups."
"The implementation of the features can be improved. Currently, there is no segregation of duty. Normally, any backup software or client service software is implemented in a way where one person is responsible for the implementation of the server, and one is responsible for the client, but Veeam Backup & Replication is not implemented in that way. Therefore, restores don't work like that. The backup guys have to do the restores, which is not a good thing. Its pricing should also be improved. It is quite expensive."
"They need to address the confusing recovery dialogue."
"One challenge that we have encountered was on the long-term retention of data. Be sure to look into a dedicated deduplication appliance."
"When you want to restore files, you first need to restore the machine, and then you have to mount it, and then restore the files."
"We have had problems with some jobs. For example, when we have a VM with a large SQL Database, sometimes we cannot adjust the time for transaction logs to back up and overlap time."
"Scalability, as well as licensing costs, need to be improved."
"They could include better automation features for migrating VMs without further configuration for the product."
"The scalability of the product in large organizations is an area of concern where improvements are required."

VMware SRM vs. Veeam vs. Zerto
Disaster recovery planning is something that seems challenging for all businesses. Virtualization in addition to its operational flexibility, and cost reduction benefits, has helped companies improve their DR posture. Virtualization has made it easier to move machines from production to…
