Veeam Data Platform Reviews

Veeam doesn't have the reporting part quite right. Its data visualization isn't as slick as other solutions like Veritas. For example, in Veritas, you can see a calendar that shows you which days are backed up. Veeam lacks features like that.

I've only been using Veeam for a couple of months. 

I'm a new client, we only use Veeam on three servers, so I'm not sure how scalable it is, but Veeam claims it's scalable. It's usually deployed in medium-sized enterprises. 

Veeam's installation was hectic. It was tough in the beginning, and the installation process took us a lot longer than we expected. It requires several other applications and has lots of dependencies.

Veeam is in the same price range as Veritas and similar solutions in that segment. 

I rate Veeam eight out of 10. Once you get it set up, everything is smooth, and the recovery is excellent. 

We work with Veeam for structure for the backups.

The product responds above our needs. We are very satisfied with it.

The initial setup was not overly complex. 

We've found the solution to be quite stable.

Technical support is helpful and responsive. 

We're looking into the feature for the backups into the cloud and so far we are happy.

For the moment we do not necessarily need an improvement in the solution. The solution responds to our needs.

The price can be a bit expensive. 

We've used the solution for 15 years or so. It's been a long time. 

We've seen an approximate rate of 95% stability. It's quite reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

From what I have experienced, technical support is good. When we open a case with Veeam, they respond quickly. We are very satisfied with the level of support we get.

The initial implementation was easy. It was not overly complex or difficult. 

The pricing is high. It's not the cheapest on the market. We'd prefer it if it was lower and more affordable. 

I'm a customer and an end-user.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten overall. We're quite happy with its capabilities. Of course, it could always cost a bit less. 

We use the solution for backing up software from the computer to the server to VMware.

I am not in the best position to discuss the solution's most valuable features, as I am not the one who is really using it. This is more a question for the high level-three technicians who are doing so. 

I know that the solution does not have any issues and that they love it. It is easy to install and very stable. We are really not inconvenienced by it. 

The tech support could be better. I rate it as a six out of ten. Though this is not frequent, when we have had need to resort to it, we found it to not be good. 

The solution is very stable. 

The tech support could be better. I rate it as a six out of ten. Though this is not frequent, when we have had need to resort to it, we found it to not be good.

The initial setup is straightforward. 

The solution is easy to support once it has been set up. 

I am not familiar with the licensing fees. 

I do not have any particular advice to impart to others looking to implement the solution. 

I rate Veeam Backup & Replication as a nine-point-five out of ten. 

We are running the entire infrastructure on a Veeam host.

It serves its intended purpose and it works well. It's good enough for us.

It integrates very well.

I believe it is an excellent product for us. I'm not sure what could be improved.

We have had problems with some jobs. For example, when we have a VM with a large SQL Database, sometimes we cannot adjust the time for transaction logs to back up and overlap time.

I have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for two years.

Veeam Backup Replication is a stable product.

I have experience with Sematech, as well as HP.

I don't have an issue with the price of Veeam Backup Replication.

Veeam is a recommended product, but I have no evidence of other products. I have not researched other similar products.

I would rate Veeam Backup & Replication an eight out of ten.

I primarily use Veeam Backup for VMware backups—I have one physical agent—and replications to SAN. I use it to copy backups to the cloud, as well as for tape backups. I also use it for restoring Azure backups and replicas to ensure that backup is successful. 

This solution is deployed on-premises, and we are currently using the latest update. 

One of the most valuable features is the integration. Another good feature is the instant recovery. 

I think that Veeam could improve some performance issues when the backup itself is restored. I'm also using HPE StoreOnce, which has deduplication, and when I'm trying to test or run backups, it takes a lot of time. I think they could improve the testing for backup copies. 

I have been using Veeam Backup for more than five years. 

This solution is very stable and reliable. I didn't face any issues with Veeam Backup Replication itself—the whole issue was related to issues with the operating system. 

This solution is easy to scale. 

I have contacted Veeam technical support a few times and was satisfied with the support. I contacted them regarding issues related to the backup copy to cloud and they helped to fix the problem. 

The installation was straightforward and we handled it locally. 

We have one admin using this application and two IT members working as alternative administrators for any issues if the main admin is not available. So we have a team of three handling maintenance. 

We implemented this solution through an in-house team. 

The pricing is on the higher side, so I think they have to think about the price. It's a stable product and there was no requirement to keep in touch with the support team, so the renewal license was too expensive. 

I rate this solution a ten out of ten, and I would definitely recommend this solution to others. 

We use Veeam Backup Replication to backup our system data.

Veeam Backup Replication could improve by having more comparably with other hardware with the immutable copy feature.

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

Veeam Backup Replication is stable.

I have found Veeam Backup Replication to be scalable.

The support that we have been receiving has been perfect.

The initial setup is simple to do in Veeam Backup Replication.

The single licensing model for the customers is a benefit, it includes many features such as ransomware and other protections.

The price of Veeam Backup Replication is reasonable.

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

We are using the latest update at the moment. 

We use the solution to do backups and replication between sites, in addition to restores. We employ it solely for its basic functions.

The restore capabilities are the most valuable features.

Veeam Backup & Replication should include a cloud solution. 

The cost should also be adressed. This would bring up my rating from a seven to a ten out of ten. 

We have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for eight to 10 years.

The solution is stable and reliable.

The solution is easy to scale. 

We have yet to make need of technical support, although I feel it to be good. 

I believe the initial setup to have been straightforward, although I cannot say this with certainty, as I was not involved in it. 

While I don't know the exact parameters of the maintenance, I do know that all of our support needs in this respect are covered. 

Maintenance is handled by a third party. We do not have a separate team for handling this. 

While I do not know how much the product cost, as I was not involved in this sphere, I do know that this could be better. 

There are probably just three to five of us using the solution, solely in the IT department. 

I would recommend the solution to others for its ease-of-use. 

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

We use the solution for its basic features, such as storage, backup and restoration. 

While I have not made use of the disaster recovery option myself, I know it to be pretty good. 

We encountered a ransomware virus issue, after which we made the environment so that the Veeam server is not in a domain, but a local one, and this helped us resolve the issue. As such, Veeam should state that it's best to have the Veeam server in a non-domain environment, for the preventing of any ransomware issues, with local authentication instead.  

When in a domain, the virus can easily attack the Veeam server, something which happened to us. Even our own antivirus solution - whose name I wish to withhold - failed to detect this. Ultimately, we had to go for the Microsoft scanner, which actually helped us to rid ourselves of the virus. 

While Veeam does provide the latest patches, it states that it is even fine to have a non-domain environment. It should have that frontline statement that the Veeam server should not be part of a domain for best anti-ransomware practices. 

I have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for probably around two years.

While Veeam does provide the latest patches, it states that it is even fine to have a non-domain environment. It should have that frontline statement that the Veeam server should not be part of a domain for best anti-ransomware practices.

I did not have personal dealings with tech support. One of the IT managers did. 

The good thing about Veeam is that its initial setup and usage are straightforward. 

The solution is simple and easy and there is no need to be an IT architect to deploy it. This can even be handled by an engineer.

The maintenance of the solution for pulling updates is not a big deal. It's manual. It only involves the operation of Veeam agents to the latest version. 

I feel the solution's features to be comprehensive, although I did not make use of all of them. 

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