Veeam Data Platform Reviews

Our primary use case of Veeam Backup & Replication is for backing up the VMware environment and restoring files. We also use it for replicating virtual machines from one site to another. I'm an information technology consultant and we are customers of Veeam. 

The solution has a good user interface, is easy to use, and is very reliable.

I'd like to see better compression of the backups.

I've been using this solution for five years. 

The solution is stable and reliable. 

The solution is very scalable. 

I think they provide good support. 

We previously used HP Data Protector before that and switched to Veeam because it was less expensive and more user-friendly. 

The initial setup is simple. We had help from a contractor for the implementation. The solution requires some monitoring and maintenance and we have two system administrators for that. There are 500 users in the company. 

Licensing costs are competitive even with the additional features that need to be licensed.

I recommend this solution because it's intuitive and rate it 10 out of 10. 

We are using Veeam Backup & Replication for backing data, such as our databases and VMs.

The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup & Replication is the ease of use.

Veeam Backup & Replication could improve by making it more user-friendly.

I have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for almost one year.

Veeam Backup & Replication is a stable solutions.

I have found Veeam Backup & Replication to be scalable.

We have one person using the solution in our company and they are doing the backup of our data. We plan to increase usage near the end of the year.

The technical support from Veeam is good.

We previously used Veritas NetBackup but it was having some issues and it is almost at its end of life. We moved to Veeam Backup Replication.

The initial setup was easy, and the whole process took two to three days.

We did the implementation of Veeam Backup & Replication ourselves. We only use one person for the maintenance and support of the solution.

We pay for the license of Veeam Backup Replication on an annual basis. The cost of the license is approximately 70,000 rials. The support and maintenance are included in the price.

My advice to others is Veeam Backup Replication is a good solution.

I rate Veeam Backup & Replication a ten out of ten.

It is our backup and recovery solution. We have a lot of hypervisors and virtual machines.

We are using its latest version. We just update it to the latest version.

Its performance is fine. It supports us very well. It is able to support our policy for RTO, RPO, and other things that we need.

A backup and replication solution should be able to back up a system and do recovery very fast. Even though Veeam Backup & Replication is able to meet most of our needs, it would be better if they can make it faster for backup and restore. 

We have been using this solution for a few years. 

It is stable. We haven't had any issues.

Its scalability is good.

I don't have any issues with their technical support.

We used our partner for its implementation. Its deployment and maintenance are taken care of by just one person. It is very simple.

Its licensing is very simple. We can make changes very easily.

I would recommend this solution to others. I would rate it an eight out of 10.

Veeam Backup Replication can be deployed on the cloud and on-premise. We choose the best option based on many factors, such as the environment complexity and maturity of the customer.

We use Veeam Backup Replication as a backup and recovery solution.

Veeam Backup Replication's most valuable features are the ease of use and the interface is very configurable for the users. It's a very familiar solution in Algeria. 

The documentation and communication could be better in Veeam Backup Replication.

I have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for approximately 15 years.

We have approximately 50 customers using this solution.

The technical support from Veeam is very good.

Most of my customers previously used Veritas backup solutions.

The solution is very easy to implement.

We discovered Veeam Backup Replication with our presales people in our company. We did a POC at our office which is mandatory by our technical director when we discover a new solution. We go to the customer and discuss with them the difference and benefit of Veritas Backup Exec and Veeam and which can best suit their environment. Additionally, we show them the difference between using Veritas Backup Exec and the Veeam Backup Replication.

Veeam needs to work on their marketing for their solutions.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a nine out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for backup replication - mostly for Office 365 Backup and sometimes as a cloud backup.

It is a global major solution for quite a lot of people. That makes it easy to find somebody who knows how to work with Veeam Backup.

The scalability is good.

The solution needs to have the capacity to address more legacy workloads. For example, things like integration with tapes.

The initial setup can get complex. 

We've been working with the solution for a while. 

The solution can scale. It's a solution that is enabled me to 500 VMs.

The initial setup can be complex. 

Some environments can become really complex and big environments are often difficult.

For a small environment, deployment can be four days, including what must be done to achieve a real project. For a big environment, it depends, but it can be much longer.

We were evaluating Spectrum Protect Plus, but we are not really using it and we are not selling it.

I'm a reseller.

We are always working with the latest upgrade.

I'd advise users to feel free to do a proof of concept to verify that it covers every use case that they need at least.

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

Our primary use case of Backup & Replication is for Linux systems. We are partners of Veeam and I am the CDO.

This is a good solution for the virtual environment; it's easy to use with a simple restore feature. 

Unfortunately, the software only runs on Windows and can't take backups of Linux or other operating systems. It would be helpful if it would run on Linux. There are also some issues with support response times. 

I've been using this solution for four years. 

This is a stable product, it works well. 

We haven't yet tried to scale.

The customer service is good although there can be a delay in response times. 

The initial setup is straightforward. 

In comparison with other solutions, licensing costs are fair although still a little high. Veeam is not as expensive as Commvault or other backups.

Micro Focus Data Protector has the advantage of supporting legacy operating systems like HP-UX or IBM X. Veeam doesn't have that. I prefer Veeam in terms of its VMware.

I highly recommend this solution and rate it nine out of 10. 

Our clients that use this solution are companies that requires basic to advanced backup solutions, including their own hardware. 

The backup and replication features of this solution are most valuable.

I would prefer it if the backup console did not require use of a specified program, but rather that it could be opened from any website.

We have been a partner of Veeam for five years. 

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. 

We don't use the Veeam support service regularly.

The initial setup is straightforward. 

This solution is very user-friendly. The first time you use it, you can download the trial, so you don't need to pay for it to test it. 

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

We use Veeam Backup Replication for on-site data backups.

Veeam Backup Replication is a bit difficult to use. If you have used other solutions such as Commvault, you will find it is much easier to use. Veeam Backup Replication does backups in a different way that is not as simple as other solutions. Doing backups of SQL Servers is much easier in Commvault. However, the difficulty could be the lack of experience I have had with Veeam Backup Replication.

I have been using Veeam Backup Replication for approximately one year.

Veeam Backup Replication is stable I have not had any problems.

I have used Commvault previously and I liked it better than Veeam Backup Replication. I am only using Veeam Backup Replication because my client already was using it in their environment.

Commvault is not intuitive in the beginning, especially the older versions with all the management tools.

The price of Veeam Backup Replication is reasonable.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a seven out of ten.
