Expert Backup at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
A virtual deduplication backup appliance that protects physical and virtual data across remote sites, the datacenter and cloud deployments
Given its ease of use and management, I believe there are no specific caveats that users need to be aware of during the setup of DXRIS for backups. The process was straightforward, and I did not encounter any challenges or issues. As for a rating on a scale of one to ten, with one being the worst and ten being the best, I would rate the Quantum DXI Series a nine. My deduction is primarily influenced by personal preferences, particularly regarding the user interface and it is a highly commendable system, I would rate it a solid nine out of ten.

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

"I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas."
"While the challenges posed by the difficulties were significant, they prompted the replacement of problematic components, resulting in the resolution of issues. Importantly, there were no substantial ongoing concerns. Regarding the overall performance, it has been consistently excellent."
"Veeam makes backup what it should be, set up back up jobs and when you need to restore something, click a couple buttons and restore."
"I would advise others that the implementation of Veeam Backup Replication is straightforward and it is a great solution."
"One of the most valuable features is the integration. Another good feature is the instant recovery."
"It has very good stability."
"If you want to have a small and cheap system, that is not Veeam; but if you want performance, reliability, support, then this solution is best for that."
"I would highly recommend it, since the solution is very simple to implement, monitor and manage."
"It is very easy to implement and by far a better product than any I have seen so far."
"The initial setup was very easy."
 

Cons

"The product needs to improve performance while scaling out. It also needs to improve stability."
"Perhaps the most notable area for enhancement lies in the web interface for management. The current limitations in LDAP editing capabilities are not addressed in the UI, and I haven't observed any recent updates. It's possible that the new version of the DXI service incorporates improvements in the GUI, but I cannot confirm. While there is room for improvement in the current GUI, it remains a relatively minor issue. Overall, the system is comprehensive, covering aspects such as reports on latency and networking, leaving little room for additional enhancements in those areas."
"Granular-level backup is difficult."
"There's a lot of room for improvement surrounding the backup process."
"There might be room for improvement at the plugin level, specifically concerning application plugins."
"The navigation of menus can be difficult to find what you're looking for sometimes."
"One of the downsides to Veeam is that it's just software-based."
"I think backing up from physical servers and ransomware security needs some improvements."
"It requires a Windows Server, but it would be a good idea to have an appliance with no Microsoft license required."
"The cloud part of it can be improved. There should be an option for Veeam in your own cloud, as compared to the Veeam cloud offering that's currently there. The rest of it is easy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I do not oversee this aspect, as pricing is contingent on factors such as volume, technical specifications, and the desired features. Consequently, I lack information on the pricing details and structure."
"I rate the pricing a five, depending on the application and environment."
"For now, I think the pricing of Veeam ONE is quite okay for any of the infrastructures, especially for those who want a backup system and a tool that provides monitoring services."
"I consider that the product's price falls under the middle range category."
"The solution is fairly priced. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"We are fine with its pricing policy."
"I would rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten. The licensing costs are yearly."
"Veeam has been raising its prices in the last two years, so it's now lacking some competitiveness in pricing."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
