Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
"The solution is carefully designed to be easy to use - even if you're in a panic."
"It is a stable product with useful snapshot and replication features."
"Veeam Data Platform is the first recommendation from my company and me, as it's easy to set up, and the portal and management are very straightforward compared to competitors."
"The tool's stability is good."
"The initial setup is simple to do in Veeam Backup Replication."
"Get only one interface to manage all backup sites, secure them with replication, and manage outside LTO media."
"Setting up Veeam is easy, and it's portable, too."
"The product allows us to use data more efficiently, reducing the cost of storage and backup time. It is vital to have data available in the shortest possible time."
 

Cons

"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"In the next release, I would like replication directly to the cloud to be included."
"The solution requires a lot of bandwidth."
"OpenStack is something Veeam Data Platform doesn't support, and they haven't indicated that they will support it in the future."
"There should be better use of the external hard drives."
"I would like to have the capability of backing up a physical machine, as opposed to just a VM."
"The patching can be quite difficult at times."
"In the past, Veeam had a host-based license, but now it will be part of Microsoft's core license. I don't like this licensing model. Host-based licensing is better for my system. Maybe so other organizations prefer the core-based."
"Granular-level backup is difficult."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We purchase a license annually."
"The price of Veeam Backup & Replication is reasonable compared to IBM."
"The price of Veeam is much lower than the IBM solution."
"The subscription-based pricing of Veeam Backup Replication is competitive."
"I acknowledge there are concerns about pricing, specifically in gaining more customers for VM. We've encountered difficulties in convincing them due to pricing issues. So, I rate it a six."
"I would rate the pricing six out of ten when compared to other competitors."
"The pricing is on the higher side, so I think they have to think about the price. It's a stable product and there was no requirement to keep in touch with the support team, so the renewal license was too expensive."
"Veeam's pricing is good. But compared to the past five years, it's constantly increasing."
