Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup was very easy."
"Veeam Data Platform manages and protects data across multiple cloud environments amazingly."
"It's the most easy-to-use backup replication that I have used so far."
"Its interface is designed to be intuitive and it also offers seamless integration with VMware storage, additionally enhancing its ease of use."
"The granular restoration that it provides for a business application is most valuable. For example, for Exchange, we can restore a single mailbox or email. We can also do SQL Server restoration and bare-metal recovery for operating systems."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"Veeam Backup Replication is stable I have not had any problems."
"One of the best things about Veeam is that they have consistently improved on themselves since they started. Personally, I've been using Veeam since around 2013/2014 when it was only supporting certain hypervisors such as HyperV, and since then it has become truly mature enterprise-level software with a lot of versatility."
"The user interface is very user-friendly, making it easy for customers to understand and use."
"Vinchin Backup & Recovery supports most mainstream private cloud platforms, including VMware, Nutanix, and Microsoft Hyper-V, as well as many Chinese-based products."
 

Cons

"There is some complexity we have experienced when using the solution that should be simplified."
"It would be preferable if they could introduce a complete Linux version instead of relying solely on Microsoft for management. There should be a unified integration of all their products. Currently, there are various products like cloud backup and others that exist separately. It would be better if they could create a single comprehensive platform or product, as opposed to having disparate products that lack proper communication between them."
"The price can be a bit expensive."
"Its price is higher than other solutions and can be improved. They can also change the version of the software more often."
"We'd like to see them add more custom templates."
"They need full cloud integration such that an on-premises backup can be offloaded to the cloud for storage."
"When in a domain, the virus can easily attack the Veeam server, something which happened to us."
"I only ever found one error. It was when we were doing a file copy job. After using it for ten minutes, it would slow down and cause a bottleneck error."
"The deduplication and compression ratio could be improved to save more space for customers."
"The deduplication and compression ratio could be improved to save more space for customers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is based on the number of cores you have in your ESX or Hyper-V environment."
"The licensing fee depends on the licensing model we choose."
"Veeam Data Platform, it's pay-as-you-go. So, the more options you choose, the more consumption you have in monthly billing."
"I don't know what the costs are for sure, but I think that it's on a yearly basis."
"The product must improve its pricing."
"It's expensive and costs about 4000 a year."
"Veeam Backup Replication is inexpensive for small workloads."
"We are on an annual license for Veeam Backup Replication. We could expand or upgrade the license for the Office365 features. Next year we might go to a three-year plan for support on license."
