Cons

"One major drawback is that Veeam doesn't support migrating data once it's stored in object storage like S3."
"In the next release, it should have direct export to tape drive abilities and NDMP support."
"If Veeam could offer backup as a service for data backup and recovery, that would be great. We'd like something like what Druva is offering at the moment."
"We have found that there is a limitation in this solution where it only takes the backup of users who are using Office 365 Enterprise email IDs. We have many users in management and approximately 50 other users who are using Office 365 of which Veeam is able to capture the backup. However, for the other users who are on the local email server at that time, the solution is not able to capture the backup."
"The solution needs to introduce more features."
"If clients are backing up onto tape, Veeam's newest versions don't really deal with that."
"We attempted to use it for our DRP, however, we found it too expensive and complex, so we decided to use it just for backup."
"The solution needs to improve its speed."
"The deduplication and compression ratio could be improved to save more space for customers."
