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.

Reliable with good support but needs a better navigation menu

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 feature is how reliable Veeam Backup is. It has the normal expected features that allow you to ensure that everything is backed up completely."
"It is a stable product with useful snapshot and replication features."
"Storage Snapshot is a good feature and very safe."
"No problems with stability."
"Veeam Data Platform manages and protects data across multiple cloud environments amazingly."
"The encryption password is used to protect the backup files. Even if someone gains access to the backup job or files, they won't be able to utilize them without the password."
"The tool provides an easy-to-navigate feature of all the functionalities it has for its users."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement would be expanding its capabilities beyond Azure-specific backups."
"All our customers would like a cheaper license and more flexible deployment."
"Offering mobile apps that give engineers a global view of his backup regime would be a "nice to have" feature."
"The initial setup of Veeam Backup Replication is straightforward. The process took approximately two days. The setup could be streamlined to take less time."
"The initial setup was not straightforward at all."
"The cost needs to be considered."
"The remote SQL server has had multiple sizing issues within the logs and SQL backup space and sharing with other database apps."
"The product's pricing is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"If a single file is corrupt then the restoration of the entire backup will fail."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Its pricing is really good."
"The product is expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable and falls within the average range."
"We pay on an annual basis. We pay roughly $12,000 for our software subscription."
"Veeam Backup Replication can be quite expensive for Office 365 because its license is per user and not for the space that you use. You need one license for each user. If the user only uses a few files on one hard drive, you need a license to back up these files. It was better to have a license model, such as in the Cohesity solution. Cohesity has a license for a space that you use. It's more useful in this case because the license for backup data is on-premises is for CPU. The license is based on how many CPUs you have but it does not depend on how many users use the CPU."
"We pay for the license of Veeam Backup Replication on an annual basis. The cost of the license is approximately 70,000 rials. The support and maintenance are included in the price."
"I consider that the product's price falls under the middle range category."
"The changes in pricing have been an interesting aspect. It seems to have become pricier, resulting in a reduction in affordability. There are extra expenses involved, including hardware requirements and the procurement of operating system licenses, which must also be taken into account. I would rate the price seven out of ten."
