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."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its ease of deployment, its many interesting functions, and its good performance for both backup and restoration."
"The features that I have found most valuable are its back up and recovery, as it is a simplified backup because you can do both databases - VM and HyperV, and it is a faster backup than the conventional methods because it takes up the bare metal."
"The solution works well in two different environments, whether it is on-premises, cloud, or a combination."
"Storage gateway feature is very flexible."
"The solution is quite stable."
"If you are using a virtualized environment, there is nothing better than Veeam Backup and Veeam One."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to restore the VMs into a test environment."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement would be expanding its capabilities beyond Azure-specific backups."
"The product must be able to perform different types of backups."
"It would be ideal if they could capture everything and then timestamp and back up everything up to that timestamp."
"I think the backup and integration could be improved."
"The endpoint protection console is not centralized."
"Different types of licenses could not be used on the same Veeam server in the past, it would be good to be able to use mixed types of licenses in the same server."
"Although the solution offers documentation, it has it only in English, which doesn't help us much in Belarus."
"They need to improve their technical side."
"Veeam needs to have more support for non-Windows systems and other databases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Since pricing is per socket, it is not expensive to add capacity as you go along."
"Veeam Data Platform's pricing is affordable."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"The product is competitively priced."
"The tool is reasonably priced for the quality it provides."
"It's a proper price, as it isn't an issue for what Veeam Backup & Replication is giving us. Obviously, we are paying licensing for our physical VMware environment. It also depends on how the VMware environment is on the side. We have a few very big nodes. So, we need a few licenses and maybe if people had more nodes and sockets and each node was managing less information, machine supplies could be different."
"We pay on an annual basis. We pay roughly $12,000 for our software subscription."
"Veeam's pricing is good. But compared to the past five years, it's constantly increasing."
