Veeam Data Platform Reviews

Veeam Backup & Replication is useful for disaster recovery. Apart from that, it happens now and again that you make a mistake somewhere, and you have to go back to a previous state of a machine. 

I work with both on-premise and a mixed environment. 

One of the most valuable features is the incremental backup. It is, of course, perfect because you have a lot of restore points, but you don't need all the space. The stability is also perfect. 

The only improvement I could think of is it could be cheaper—cheaper is always good. Sometimes the product is just finished. Cheaper is always nice for the customer, but the company needs to benefit so that they can keep maintaining the product. New Windows versions, etc., always take some work. At the moment, I wouldn't switch to another solution because of the money. 

I have been using this solution for about four years now. 

The stability is perfect. 

I've never had a problem with scalability. I've got very big environments, but the biggest problem with Backup could be that you need a lot of space and you don't have that with Veeam. 

We have contacted technical support a few times and they reacted fine. 

We switched to Veeam a long time ago because it just works better. We get more consistent backups of our backup software. The previous backups gave us problems and Veeam just doesn't—it just works. 

The initial setup is really easy. I don't remember the timeframe because it was too long ago, but with a new product, you always have to do a bit of reading. If I were to implement Veeam in a new network, I would guess I'd be done in the morning, no more than that. 

There are two or three people in our organization using this solution. As far as a technical team, you need to be aware of the systems youʻre backing up. If you're backing up SQL service or exchange service, then you need to know about your SQL server, but basic Windows knowledge and knowledge of the applications youʻre backing up are all you need to know. 

With this one, we had one side set up by an integrator and the other, I did myself. If you are going to implement it, do a bit of reading yourself or let somebody who knows what they're doing do it for you, or do it together. 

I rate Veeam Backup & Replication a nine and a half out of ten. I absolutely recommend Veeam Backup & Replication. I have been looking at a competitor lately and they seem to do the same thing as the vendors, however they were a lot cheaper, but we just couldn't get it to work. 

We have, I'd say, about 20 different customers running Veeam and sending backups to our hosting center. We also have our own hosting environment with about 200 servers, which we are backing up with Veeam Backup and Replication.

The solution is stable and absolutely reliable. 

It's the most easy-to-use backup replication that I have used so far.

I've found that the scalability is fine.

The initial setup is pretty simple. 

We're using both Backup and Replication, Veeam Cloud Connect, and Veeam Office 365. What I am missing is a good graphical user interface between these three products. It's something that they need to figure out. I'd like the three versions streamlined so they fit together better, as, right now, they are very different.

We've been selling the solution for three or four years or something like that.

The solution is reliable and the performance is good. We find it to be stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze.

Scalability is possible with this solution. If a company needs to expand it, it can do so.

We have 50 customers that pay for this solution right now.

Technical support is helpful and responsive. they are very knowledgeable and friendly. We are very satisfied with the level of support on offer. They really try their best to resolve issues.

The solution is simple and straightforward. 

I cannot recall how long it took to actually deploy the product.

We have three managers that can handle the deployment and maintenance aspects of the product.

We pay for licensing and have a monthly subscription.

We are a reseller.

I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

We moved to Veeam to have complete virtualization. It's perfect for us. It virtualized our workflows. Veeam is used to support only virtual machines and does not back up to our physical machines.

The best feature of Veeam is, first and foremost, the support they provide. They are at the top in support. The support is excellent. 

It's got a very good user-friendly interface. It's easy to use.

The training is excellent. of Veeam. I'm from the Middle East. Veeam is very accurate out here and they have very good training facilities over here. On my team, everybody's trained on Veeam.

I'm really happy with Veeam. As of now, we have never had any issues with Veeam. It has performed perfectly.

It's a very mature product.

The only thing which was lacking was the support, some years back, for the cloud connect. It's matured now and has become a very reliable product.

I would like to have is better documentation. Veeam documentation is something that needs to be worked on. The training program is very good, however, they need to have better work documentation.

Also, very few third parties have courses on Veeam. Veeam only provides co-courses. For example, everybody has got courses about Cisco or Microsoft. Veeam is very closed on that factor. If they want to really popularize the software, they need to have more training, and the training should be more widely available via third parties.

The cost is a hindrance towards learning for certifying in Veeam. They need to make it more open and less expensive to open it up for more companies and users.

On individual user backups, there are certain people who have got individual PCs and they have data on them. Veeam is not up to that mark. There is other software we use which is much better than Veeam when it comes to individual data protection. I would like to have them come up with more robust features when it comes to individual endpoint protection.

I've been working with data protection for 15 to 20 years. I recently moved to Veeam. We've used it now for seven or eight years. 

As of now, it has never given us any issue, in my personal experience. Veeam is a very robust product. There has never been any problem and there have not been any downtimes, so we have absolutely nothing to complain about. It's a good product.

We are a hundred-person virtualized shop. We have close to 250 users. We have continuous data protection.

Veeam has been extensively used in our company as all our servers are getting backed up. We have some six to seven ESXi hosts. Between all our servers, we have some 30 to 35 VMs. Veeam is a very integral part of our data strategy out here.

They have different tiers - from a free tier to an enterprise tier. With the new updates, it's very scalable. 

Technical support has always been great. They're the best in the business and are very helpful and supportive.

We don't directly deal with Veeam. We have an MSP who supports us on our network. However, we have never had any issues with Veeam. If there are any issues, it's sorted out immediately.

I started with Symantec and have recently moved to Veeam. I'm also familiar with Commvault.

When you're really looking at enterprise, I personally would go for Commvault. That's a product that is built for the enterprise. Veeamis aimed t smaller businesses. 

The initial setup is very simple. It's just a user-driven thing. It's very, very simple.

It's not as complicated as Commvault. Commvault is a little complicated. However, with Veeam, when it comes to user-friendliness, it's a brilliant product.

Maintenance is easy. It's not a problem at all. It's handled by a third-party provider that is a partner of Veeam.

We currently have ten to 15 different licenses. I can't speak to the exact details as it's mostly handled by the IT operations team.

Beyond the licensing, the only cost which we have incurred, which was a little too much, was the training. In our company, people need to be certified as we basically go for internal competence and upscaling our people, as a team. However, Veeam certifications are costly. That is one thing that was a little bit of a pain point for us.

We are just a customer of Veeam.

I recommend Veeam very highly. It's a very mature product.

If you have a virtualized environment, which 99% of the people have virtualized environments now, it's perfect. Veeam is something which is built for virtualization.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

We are a seller and an implementer.

We are implementing on premises as well as on cloud. Now most customers are trying to apply the 3-2-1 policy, and it requires having the process and integration available together.

The general use cases are that it can be used for any backup, for any data center, whatever it is, virtualized or physical or in the cloud. It is very useful and has a very user-friendly backup with a lot of options. It is very fast, as well. Nowadays, we are trying to be compatible with all the storage infrastructures.

veeam help us a lot to expand our business in the market and provide our customer with an advanced backup solution to protect their Data centers and increase the availability and performance of data recovery to match with target RPO and RTO

There are many valuable features, for example how Copy Job is controlling the band with accelerators. The Enterprise Manager has valuable add on feature. it has very useful features for centralize management ,Monitoring and controlling. We can push in the market, because we have an advantage over the other solutions. I was previously working with HP Data Protector for a long time, and it was very limited in features and it was no so user friendly.

In terms of what can be improved, we have already integrated with some Unix environments, which were not supported before. They have some limitations on integration with the advanced features as snapshotting and for some types of storage. We are almost compatible with around four vendors now - HPE , EMC, IBM and Dell. We could go further for this one. They could increase the compatibility for the advanced integrations. 

CDP also requires a lot of development, because there are a lot of restrictions now for CDP. There is a chance to improve CDP and make it much easier for the customers.

We can make CDP more flexible. Hypervisor on Linux are the first generation. So, till now a few customers are testing this. I think it will take some time to redevelop them and to integrate them properly. 

I have been using Veeam Backup & Replication personally for one year, but my company is a partner and have been using it for at least five years.

I am working with version 11, but I'm not using the features released now currently for the 11a because few customers are using CDP, continuous data protection, and Hypervisor, on Linux and these things. I have not applied the new functions till now, but I know that there are good things from them.

Veaam Backup & Replication is very good in terms of stablity. It is one of the best now. There is a high competition between Veeam and Commvault, but I think Veaam is getting more and more customers now.

Veeam Backup & Replication is so much easier now with the new license,. Now you can scale out without any problem, there is no limitation, by the license to scale out. This is a good thing on Veeam, so you can actually scale out according to the customer needs. There is no restriction on customer capacity, on sizes, etc... Nowadays, it is a good thing that they migrated to this type of license which is not depends on the NO core processor. So, if the customer has enough instances, he can backup for anything and he can expand without any limitation.

I already have some enterprise customer including one big global company. Most of the other customers are small-medium. , now we can expand to the number of enterprise customer because once you become compatible with IBM, Sun Solaris ,Linux and these High end OS, you will have a lot of new customers in the enterprise area.

Our company provides maintenance services for our customers, but most of the customers are required to get support from the vendor. So, even if we are acting as a service-level support, we are protected with backend support from the vendor.

They are very good. Very positive. Maybe they need to be faster in their response time to the customers. Sometimes the call is taking all day.

Positive

I was previously using HP Data Protector.

There are many differences between HP Data Protector and Veeam Backup & Replication. HPE stopped supporting their products more than five years ago. They sold it to another company ( Micro Focus ), . Since then, there is no investment in the product, and no new development.

The initial setup is very simple. It has all the things bundled. Even if there is something not available on the Windows platform they will make it and they will install it. It is very easy for integration.

The initial setup will not take more than one to two hours. The problem is after this, we need to configure it. You need to configure the storage to match with the customer requirements - to see what the customer needs. So the planning will take a lot of time, of course. After the initial setup, you will need to have good background about what the customer has to be integrated.

mainly we are doing the implementation through our certified team and in case we need any support form main vendor we can get it , Veaam technical support team and veeam technical consultant are Excellent and supportive . 

In terms of Return On Investment , Veeam backup and replication indicates a more productive investment in a long time compared with other solution .

Veeam Backup & Replication is not so cheap. Nothing is cheap now in the market. But, it is very good and reasonable considering the integrated features. You can give it an eight out of 10 on the price.

There are different licensing models. Nowadays, I think you want to focus on the number of instances. They stopped the previous license, Charisma. You want to go by the number of instances licensing .

We have many different types of licenses. COMMUNITY EDITION ,VEEAM BACKUP & REPLICATION and VEEAM AVAILABILITY SUITE which will include all the advanced option including VEEAM ONE 

You can get Veaam ONE embedded  which will be cheaper, but few customers are actually going for this because, Veaam ONE is a complete monitoring and reporting solution it is not dedicated for Veaam backup solution. You can use it for monitoring the data center virilization solitons including VMware , MS Hyper-V  , Veaam one has a very powerful monitoring and reporting engine .

Micro Focus Data Protector , Commvault backup , 

My advice to anyone considering Veeam Backup & Replication is that , this is an Excellent Backup solution ,so much user Fridley , easy to be integrate and very fast and powerful in virtualization and cloud Environments you can go for it ,I think it is one of the best solution. in case you have only on-premise physicals solution in DC you may think about anther solution .

I don't like to give 10 for any vendor. So on a scale of one to ten, I would say, Veaam Backup & Replication is a Nine/10.

I am now Veeam certified , so I am support Veeam. It took a lot of tough time for me to be certified in Veeam. Their exam is very, tough. So, they need to expand the bar. They should make it slightly easier, because the Veeam  exam is one of the hardest exams I have done. Most of the exam Questions is  depends on different  scenarios. The exam time is very short compared with the number of questions there. , so you will not have a time to read all the questions and give the answers. I believe they should make it easier.

Veeam Backup Replication is used by my clients as a backup and recovery solution.

My customers find the backup and recovery ease of use is the most beneficial feature.

The recovery and integration features of Veeam Backup Replication could improve. For example, all VM integration could improve, such as with Hyper-V and VMware.

There is not any kind of archiving feature that is provided and in a future release, there should be an archiving feature in this platform. They would be better able to compete with the other archiving solution. In the current scenario, if the customer wants to have an archiving feature, they will have to purchase another solution because we cannot have this archiving feature with Veeam Backup Replication.

I have been using Veeam Backup Replication for approximately five years. 

Veeam Backup Replication has been stable.

The scalability of Veeam Backup Replication is good.

The technical support is good and responsive.

I have used Commvault.

The initial installation is quite easy and not very cumbersome. It's easy if you have a basic understanding of the architecture of the Veeam.

The subscription-based pricing of Veeam Backup Replication is competitive.

The solution that we recommend more often depends on the use case. If there are other use cases that include bare metal recovery and archiving features then I would recommend another product, such as Commvault.

I would advise before implementing a solution such as Veeam Backup Replication that you have the training and skillset before implementation. This allows for proper implementation, best practices, and stability. It is helpful to have someone that is certified.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication an eight out of ten.

The solution is based on the IAF solutions that are specific for moving the data centers that we have to the cloud. This is the main tension for us right now. We are investing in some past solutions, however, we're not using them yet. There are some tests, some small tests, however, we are moving IAF solutions in order to move our data centers.

We like Veeam as it is the kind of backup that has basic snapshots. It's very useful for us as we have a lot of virtual servers. This is the most impressive thing that we see. 

There are some special features from Veeam. They have the replication and the kind of backup that we can use. We have a very strong solution in the network. Due to the fact that we have several internal DMS's, we needed to make a special design. Veeam adapted to that. That's why we choose it. With all the solutions, it was not possible to use the actual network structure that we had. Veeam made it possible.

The solution is stable and the performance is good.

The product can scale. 

For us, it's important that the products can be adapted to different network scenarios. This is the biggest problem. The issues that we had when we selected the products were due to the specifics on the network from a security point of view. Security for us is the most important feature that we need to work with. THey need to ensure that it's possible to secure the network.

The initial setup is complex. 

We use several proxies, reverse proxies, due to our needs. It's not so common. There's not too much information and it's not so useful. They could develop it more and they could market it better. Not many users have this scenario. The reverse proxy, for us, was an important piece to implement. If a user has a good view of the reverse proxying during the implementation, it's better.

The solution has been implemented in the company for about one year at this point. 

The solution is very stable. We needed to buy the biggest server to accommodate it. The requirements were very high. That's why we started late when they decided to use it. However, after we followed the recommendations and followed the certification of equipment servers and storage that we needed, it's okay. Now we find it's very stable.

The scalability is very good. Everybody uses it. In general, we have about 125,000 people using it.

We likely will increase usage in the future. 

We needed some technical support at the start. It was good. Here in Brazil, they are from Brazil and they have helped us too in the design phase. That said, the product is very good. We don't need exactly support for any issue that we found. We've only needed some help for the implementation, the start of the design.

In terms of the implementation, it's still being rolled out. It's very big and there is a very sparse structure that we have. It's global. It will take about two years for it to be completely implemented, due to the places and locations we need to implement it. We need to make and design for each place as it is not standard. That's why it takes a long time. We prefer to take it in parts to be careful with the implementation, in order to see if it's really what we want. Therefore, for us, the setup is quite complex.

The results have been good so far. People are liking it very much. That said, we still have some designs to do for other places that we have implemented.

Due to the implementation, we are doing, there are about 50 people working on the deployment. This is just an estimation. It's quite a large project.

We pay the licensing fees on a yearly basis. There may be a few additional costs, however, I cannot speak to those exactly. Our technical team might have a better idea of what is involved in terms of licensing arrangements. 

We tried the base license, however, it's my understanding that it wasn't enough and we needed a bit more. 

We are a Veeam partner.

In terms of types of deployments used, at this time it's been working more on-premises, however, we have intentions to use the cloud. We are moving several loads to the cloud. 

I would advise new users that the design is the most important piece. There are several options in the ways that you can implement it. My recommendation is to look at the strategy. Networking becomes very important. Having a good design at the outset makes things easier. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

Our primary use cases for Veeam Backup & Replication are backing up to the cloud, backing up to a couple of deduplication appliances, and backing up to local disk - compressed to disk.

Veeam Backup & Replication is far more dynamic as far as being able to generate backup jobs. We used to use a product called NetWorker, and at the time the version of NetWorker we had would not back up to the cloud. I think it does now, but we're not using it anymore. But at the time, NetWorker was fairly new and it was just a tape backing up the disc. So Veeam is far better dealing with virtual environments and the cloud as targets. The capability with Veeam is just there.

Veeam Backup & Replication works. It integrates very well with VMware, but not so well with Nutanix, but that's common, I understand. I have both VMware and Nutanix virtual environments and I'm backing up through the same Veeam services. I have proxies running on both environments. Like I said, integration with VMware is excellent with very granular recovery while with the Nutanix environment it is not as intuitive, not as readily available.

In terms of what could be improved, when creating a backup job with Veeam, you can create a daily backup, but it doesn't do it within that job. It does not give you the ability to also set the terms for monthly and/or weekly backups. It has to be a separate job. It gets clunky to manage the timeframes where you don't want a daily to run on this day and creating weeklies. And you don't want a daily to run on this day doing monthlies. That is hard to deal with. It would be really nice if you could do it through a single command line or a single interface.

It is called a father son, or grandfather, type backup structure. The retention periods are not consistent or not available for different retention periods within that job. Retention periods being daily, weekly, monthly.

As for what I would like to see in future releases, just the integration to other virtual environments. In our case, the Nutanix environment is incomplete with the enterprise manager recovery tools part of it. That's where it is incomplete on the Nutanix side as well on the ESX. On the VMware side, the ability to set your retention policy within a job over multiple periods would be really nice if that was doable.

I have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for well over a year, probably 18 months, maybe even close to two years.

The product relies fairly greatly on the implementations of the storage vendors. For example, we were using large storage in AWS and it was using Microsoft. It's the format - ReFS, the recovery, the storage, the dis format, the volume formatting. We had a serious failure and lost six 30 terabyte ReFS volumes in AWS and lost nine 15 terabyte ReFS volumes on our local storage. I was able to recover the local storage in a little over two months. To recover the AWS storage of our volumes we calculated would have taken between six months to a year and probably cost us several tens of thousands of dollars.

So our volumes are still sitting in recoverable AWS in the case where if we actually have to recover something it's doable at significant cost. But we don't use ReFS storage anymore.

I'm not big. We have 200 employees and maybe 50 or 60 or 70 VM's, something like that. We have a data domain appliance that we rent space on that is offsite. We have an extra grade appliance and I have a bunch of CADA disks on a net app for just local storage. If that's scalable, I don't know. My understanding is that I can create more, but everything is local. So I don't have to have remote backup servers. But I understand that with my license I can create remote backup servers, as well.

That sounds like it's pretty straightforward. You link it and you can move backups from one site to another and then recover them off that other site. From what I've read, it sounds amazing, but from what I've done, I've never had to go into any great remote control, remote access or remote sites. So I don't know as far as the scalability goes. It sounds like it can scale up the ying yang. The one thing that I'm aware of though, is that when you're doing the backup, when you're scaling, you wind up with tears, because you have one server backing up a set of VM's, or an environment. And you have another server backing up another environment or another set of VM's.

If you lose one backup server it is able to catalog those backups from another server. I know you can catalog those backups to another server to recover. So it's dynamic. I've had to do that. I've had to build a new server and then recover the catalogs and recover data. It is powerful, it is capable. I like it.

In terms of direct users, it is me and three others that have gotten their fingers into it a little bit by the documentation that I've written on how to do something step by step. But there is really only me managing the system.

We are using this product extensively now. 

From the time that we installed it until now, we had to switch from CPU licenses to what they call UL, Universal Licensing. Because CPU licensing was only available on a VMware infrastructure and when we entered do our Nutanix infrastructure, we had to change the licensing model. There was a small cost to doing that because of the way it's licensed. We have not had to increase our license count yet. I will be shortly implementing another version of the Veeam. I think it's a very simple license, it's the five user license. It's in the VLU, but it's not the enterprise version of it, for our computer science department. They will be managing their backups with Veeam and a technician who I will be training.

That ReFS issue was one of the things that I had with technical support. For the most part they have been very responsive. They have been helpful when it's actually a Veeam issue. With the ReFS thing, they couldn't do anything about that and they referred me to Microsoft, which was a fricking waste of time. I'm so ticked with Microsoft.

We used to use NetWorker for 10 or 12 years.

We made the switch because of the virtualization and cloud access as well as disc storage on the version of NetWorker that we were running. NetWorker requires a physical appliance and the upgrades to NetWorker were cumbersome. The next generation of NetWorker, if we had stayed, would have required a rebuild of our hardware, which we've done once and was a pain in the backside. At that point, I don't think we could have run NetWorker because it wants to go to talk directly to devices and manage devices at a hardware level. So you can't virtualize the connections. So our NetWorker product had to reside on a physical machine.

I don't know if that has changed since we haven't used NetWorker for probably three - four years. We haven't done any upgrades in four years. So the move to Veeam or Commvault, which was the two that we were looking at, was primarily because we had local vendor support for both products. The move to Veeam was well priced, Commvault was out to lunch as far as dollars and cents. We are a fairly small shop and the pricing was just outrageous for Commvault 300 virtual machines. 

Veeam natively lives in a virtual environment. NetWorker couldn't. We also used to use a Norton product. I have forgotten the name of it - it starts with an S.

Those were retired when we started using Veeam. It has been four years since any of those were active, but those were for our remote sites. They only backed up the tape. We didn't explore Backup Exec in a virtual situation. Just didn't even look at it. I don't know if that was a mistake. I don't think so. Like I said Veeam, works really well. I am very pleased.

The documentation to set it up was great. I think we were up and running in about 30 minutes. That was to set up the backup server. Then there is building other services - the proxies, the repository manager, the enterprise manager for managing backups and recoveries. But to set up the backup server itself was super easy.

We just did it in house.

My advice to anyone considering Veeam Backup & Replication, is, like anything, to build a test site - do it on a test environment. Don't mess with your live system right off the bat, play with it, get familiar with it. It took me about about four, five or six weeks before I felt reasonably comfortable and built up in our production environment and the various servers. I started backing up and playing with a couple of Veeams that were smaller, and not backed up to the NetWorker, but I was backing them up and looking at how I could do recoveries. Eventually, I could do a full Veeam recovery and I could move it to another site and recover it, and all that sort of thing. I watched over time how retention worked. During that time I was asking questions of the Veeam technical support, too. They were very responsive.

So do it in a test environment if you don't have any training. I read online documents and went through a free Veeam school online, a bunch of documents, and there were a couple of YouTube type tutorials. I did a lot of that sort of thing as well. But it was all done ad hoc from work, I didn't go and do any formal train. So build the test environment and play.

On a scale of one to ten, I would give Veeam Backup & Replication an eight. It's got room for improvement.

I'm the system admin, and I'm taking care of backups and every job in Veeam Backup. We have the AIX machines and we are deploying the AIX machine; we are doing the backup and trying to restrain the AIX on them.

It's very customer-friendly and user-friendly and we use it mostly to backup an issue. 

We have done a multiple-time restore on Veeam Backup and that is an awesome feature. It's a very critical system, we have to restore it and Veeam makes it easy to do so to protect our system.

Initially setting up the product is easy.

The solution has been quite stable. 

Technical support is good.

It supports the technology and it's actually more secure and has enhanced itself. Veeam is always making itself better in terms of functionality and features.

Part of the issue we've had is with the AIX backup. Currently, Veeam has issued version 2.0 for the AIX machine, however, it is not capable of taking the entire machine backup and restoring at the one side. It is only taking the backup of the partitions only. There is a limitation there right now. I'd suggest they improve the functionality in the Veeam Backup agent so that it will take an entire machine backup. That would be more beneficial for the official system for the AIX's.

The stability for AIX machines could be better.

Veeam Backup also needs to be possible in Azure, so that if something goes down Veeam can take care of everything. Our local vendor in India for the Azure environment has found out there is no availability for Azure for Veeam Backup and Replication. If there is an existing Veeam option that supports the Azure environment, they need to relay the message. It's not clear now and it appears there isn't one.

We'd love to see the solution offer more compression in the future to allow us to save more space. 

It's stable for the ESXi and other Linux and workstations they've established. In the case of the AIX machine that we are using, the stability needs to be improved.

The solution is totally scalable. That said, one thing I didn't get from local resources is that Veeam Backup cannot perform in the Azure environment. 

Technical support is good. It's awesome. Still, we can't get the right solution at the right time. If I'm asking about what ports need to be open for the Veeam Backup and Replication and they are just suggesting the link and just showing the port, it's not quite as helpful as we would hope. For example, what can do we to improve from this side? There needs to be more specificity in terms of the level of technical support we get when we have specific concerns. We would be grateful for this.

The setup process was really easy. I've done it so many times, actually and I am quite comfortable with the steps now. However, in the case of AIX, most users don't know about the AIX deployment. They are not seeing exactly what needs to be done. That part needs to be taken care of by Veeam directly.

I can't speak to the exact pricing, however, in our region, in South Asia, pricing is always a concern.

We tried Commvault also, however, it's not user-friendly and it's not as easy compared to Veeam. They have their own benefit, however, they simply are not user-friendly enough for us. Veeam is easier, and it's reassuring. We've saved money with Veeam as we've had to restore a few times now and we've saved so much data using it. That's why it's good. It's proven itself again and again.

We are customers and end-users of Veeam.

I'd rate the solution at a ten out of ten.
