Veeam Data Platform Reviews

We use Veeam Backup Replication for many purposes, such as emails incidents with our users, full email retrieval, or registration. Additionally, I have restored virtual machines, entire working servers, SQL servers. 

The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup Replication is application awareness. Additionally, the solution is user-friendly and it has been working very well.

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

The solution is stable.

I have found Veeam Backup Replication scalable.

We have approximately 300 users using the solution.

We previously used Symantec Backup Exec. As we moved forward from the physical environment to the virtual environment, we changed products to Veeam Backup Replication. We found that Veeam Backup Replication was the most usable, and fit our companies use case scenario best.

The implementation was straightforward. However, we used an integrator, the process could be easier for us to do it ourselves.

We had a system integrator that implemented the whole solution for us.

The solution does not need a lot of maintenance, the upgraders do not interfere with our systems very much.

We are satisfied with Veeam Backup Replication. It is a safeguard for our daily work and our environment. It has given us a substantial return on investment.

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.

In the next year, we will move to Office365 and could use the cloud features. We will upgrade our license and check the new features of Veeam Backup Replication.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a nine out of ten.

I am using this product in a lab environment and it is primarily for doing replication.

This product is user-friendly. The interface is easy to use.

I have experienced problems with the backup repository.

The replication process is very slow. It takes too long to replicate a virtual machine.

This is a scalable solution.

I am using this solution in trial mode, as opposed to production. As such, I have not used technical support from Veeam.

I would rate this solution a six out of ten.

We use Veeam Backup Replication for our backups, for Windows, Linux backups, AIX backups. We also use it for backups for Office 365 mailboxes and files.

Veeam Backup Replication is easy to use and has high performance. The backups are very fast. It's a complete solution that fulfills our current needs.

The replication functionality only works for VMware environments. Veeam has a backup agent for AIX operating systems, and we will like to see the replication functionality available for the AIX operating system. Additionally, if the backup functionality for AIX to be included in the Veeam console would be an advantage.

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

Veeam Backup Replication has been stable.

The scalability of Veeam Backup Replication is good.

We have contacted the support and they are very good.

The implementation of Veeam Backup Replication was at a medium level of difficulty. It was not completely easy, or complex.

The full deployment took approximately four months.

I would recommend others to use this solution.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a nine out of ten.

We use it for backup and replication in small environments.

It has not improved anything. It is just a backup solution. Our customers needed something for disaster recovery in case something bad happens. It is something they needed, and it is something they have got.

The backup and replication features are most valuable.

I would like them to move back to host licensing.

Everything should improve over time as new functionalities come along. The product needs to follow new technologies and integrate them.

We have been using this solution for about 10 years.

It is stable. It is almost fire-and-forget.

We don't have experience with large environments. We only have small environments with a host of virtual machines. It is scalable for our use. There is no problem.

Its users are system administrators. Any increase in its usage would depend on the pricing. Veeam has changed its licensing policy. With their universal licensing, things have become a bit expensive. It is a free market, so we'll see.

It should be good, but we have not used it.

We also use other products. This is not the only one. We use Micro Focus Data Protector, Arcserve UDP, and Microsoft Data Protection Manager.

Microsoft Data Protection Manager is more windows-oriented. It is not as good as Veeam for sure, but it is good enough for certain environments.

It was quite straightforward. We are using it in relatively small environments. These are not big installations. 

It took a few hours. The deployment is quick, but you have to test everything and make sure everything works. 

We are an integrator. For its deployment and maintenance, one system administrator is enough.

We try to use perpetual licensing, and there are no additional costs. 

They have recently moved to universal licensing, which is more expensive, and I would like them to go back to host licensing.

I would advise others to decide for themselves if it checks all the boxes. 

I would rate it an eight out of 10 because it is now more expensive with universal licensing.

The most important feature for me is the security - you can trust that Veeam is working without having to test or check it.

An area for improvement would be the product's high use of resources and memory.

I like Veeam a lot because it solves problems, is stable, and runs very well.

The initial setup is not always easy, and customers often need a lot of help to get Veeam up and running successfully.

Our customers use Veeam for its good price, quality, and performance. I would give this product a score of eight out of ten.

We use Veeam to protect and replicate the data. We need another tool for protecting the information.

Veeam's file monitoring capabilities are strong and consistent. 

The Veeam portal should be better integrated with all the parts of the new release. But there's always a workaround to replicate the new solution. I'd like to have better integration with other solutions like SAP.

I've been working with Veeam Backup for three years. 

Veeam is highly scalable.

Veeam support is integrated across phone, chat, and email, and they have excellent discipline.

Veeam is relatively easy to deploy and you have two options. It only takes one engineer to deploy and maintain.

I rate Veeam nine out of 10. Cloud integration is a good option. They have many ways to provide integration. Some on-premise elements are part of the integration with Google. You can add part of the center to the backup to create a hybrid setup. It's not enough to have all the backup with RAMM or ERMA. The portfolio that comes with Veeam is easy, and that's also good to have — to cover all the enterprise and part of the availability suite. 

My primary use case is as a backup for VMware Hypervisor and SAP HANA.

Veeam communicates with the vCenter in VMware, which means it's very smooth and doesn't interrupt production on VMware and you can backup or restore anytime, anywhere.

The most valuable feature is the virtualization backup - Veeam is the best for this.

The deduplication feature could be improved by changing to global deduplication. I am also concerned about the master server landing on Microsoft Windows only, which means that if there is a ransom attack on the Veeam server, all the backup features will go down, and the data will be lost.

I've been using this solution for over seven years.

This solution is very stable, including its support for Hyper-V and Nutanix.

This solution is scalable - you can backup to several locations without additional cost.

I previously used IBM TSM, but the IT environment in Thailand changed from Linux to Intel, which TSM did not support, so I switched to Veeam.

The initial setup is very easy, it takes about one to two hours and requires only one person.

The license can be expensive if you have a lot of VMs, as that's what the cost is calculated from, but it's also flexible in terms of what kind of backup you can use.

Veeam is really easy to deploy and easy to use. I would rate this solution nine out of ten.

We are using Veeam for regular backups and disaster management.

The backup and restore features are the most valuable.

The user interface needs to be improved. It could be simpler to use.

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

This is a stable product.

Veeam Backup & Replication is a scalable solution. We have approximately 300 end-users and we don't plan on increasing this by very much.

I have not been in contact with technical support.

Prior to Veeam, I was using the regular Windows Backup utility.

The initial setup is straightforward and it takes roughly an hour to deploy.

Our in-house team was responsible for the implementation.

We have four people in our IT team. They are all administrators.

In summary, this is a good product and I recommend it for those who are interested in using it.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
