Veeam Data Platform Reviews

We are resellers of Veeam with an official partnership and a contract for reselling the product.

What I like most about this solution are the simplicity and the price-performance ratio.

It's a great product, but only if you have everything virtualized. If you still have non-virtualized environments, then it's not treatable for customers who have some products we can not virtualize. For example, another service, or if you have Oracle or other databases, then it's not treatable for those environments.

We have been using Veeam Backup Replication from the point that Veeam was available.

It's a stable solution. We have not had any complaints from our clients.

It's scalable with no issues.

If we have any issues, our technician teams contact the manufacture if they need help.

The initial setup and deployment are handled by our technician. I have never done it myself, but from my understanding, it's easy.

We have a team in-house for maintenance.

The price is quite fair.

People always want something cheaper but then it doesn't work as well.

Most of the time, we recommend Veeam because it's good enough. But in some environments, we don't see any reason for it and we recommend other solutions.

Know your environment before choosing Veeam to ensure that it is suitable.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

The primary use case of this solution is to back up all of our applications and all of our data.

It's very easy to work with and it's very reliable.

We haven't had any issues so far, and the backup and restore works very well.

I would like to see the Veeam cloud solution and Microsoft Office 365 included all in one platform.

I have been working with Veeam Backup & Replication for five years.

We are working with the latest version.

We use this solution daily. It's very stable. We have not had any issues.

It's a scalable solution. We started out with a few issues, and after we purchased Office 365 it was easy to store and proceed with other backups.

This is a backup of the applications and data. We don't have any users who access it.

We contacted technical support one time only. They were able to solve the issue. 

They were good.

Previously, we used a few different solutions. Before Veeam, we were using a solution from HP, and Symantec.

We decided to go with Veeam because we had a few issues that were not able to be resolved in time.

The initial setup was simple. When you compare it with other solutions it was simple.

This solution does not require a lot of maintenance. This component of the solution is very easy. We only need one person to maintain it.

The implementation was completed within the company.

This is not an expensive solution. It's on the cheaper side.

I would recommend this product to others who are interested in using it.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We implemented Veeam Backup & Replication on-prem and also on the cloud - we have both infrastructures. We use it internally to backup our internal servers and we have a cloud infrastructure where we use it to backup our customers' virtual machines for disaster solutions. We use it for disaster replication.

In terms of most valuable features, we are mostly using the Cloud Connect feature. It is flexible because you can use it on-prem and on cloud.

In terms of what can be improved, I would say they could add automations for disaster migrations and for reverse replications. Overall, they need more automation.

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

Veeam Backup & Replication is a stable product.

Veeam Backup & Replication is scalable.

I don't know our user count, but we have about 8,000 virtual machines.

We recently added this product to the environment so we will continue to use it.

The Veeam technical support is not very good. We can solve problems one by one because there are some sales teams and technical teams in Turkey. We can contact them and solve the problems with them. But it must be faster and they must have more technical knowledge.

Veeam is very easy to install. We can install it and begin use in one hour.

We implemented it ourselves with our three person backup team made up of three admins.

I would mostly recommend this product because it's easy to use and it is easy to install. On a scale of one to ten, I would give Veeam Backup & Replication a seven.

I'm not doing anything with the the solution right now. I'm just using them for database purposes. We store databases there and applications.

The solution saves our organization some money as we don't need to store to a physical machine.

The solution gives me everything which is no physical machine gives, however, it is much easier to relocate to do anything with it. 

The solution offers the normal benefits of a virtual machine versus a physical, actual machine. It doesn't take up space, for example.

Sometimes, when we shut it down, it doesn't properly shut down for us.

If we need to back it up, would be even better if we could do a backup when the files are open and the applications are working. If the solution itself had that capability to backup everything consistently, across all the files, across the system just as we are using the product, then it would have huge benefits, even more than it has today. It would mean that I would not need to purchase any other party third-party products to ensure that my application or my database will work after I back it up and start it up. 

It would be ideal if they could capture everything and then timestamp and back up everything up to that timestamp. Then I would not need other products and I could just use this, which would be better.

I'm currently using the solution. I've been using it over the past 12 months at least.

The stability seems to be pretty good. I haven't had issues with bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It seems to be reliable.

I'm not sure if we have plans to increase usage. I don't make that decision in the organization.

I have a systems admin who maybe has reached out to technical support in the past. I have not, personally. I find my systems admin quite knowledgeable. When I asked him something, he knows what to do right away. I'm not sure how many cases he's faced, where he did not know the answer and then had to go somewhere to get it.

Therefore, I can't really speak to any knowledge of technical support. I don't know how they are, to be honest.

I don't really handle the installation process. I can't speak to how difficult or easy the implementation process is.

Overall, I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

We use this product for backing up on-premises virtual servers. We have virtual servers at our two sites that we back up, and we also replicate them between each other.

Compared to other products, Veeam has a lot of features for the price.

I would like to see better features for exporting to cloud-based repositories.

Having reduced pricing for smaller businesses would be helpful.

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

This product is very stable.

There are two of us, myself and my colleague, who use this solution in our company.

I have been in contact with technical support and they are very good.

I find the installation fairly easy, although I've been working with it for quite a while.

This product is not cheap, but it's well worth the cost.

I am looking forward to a new feature that is coming out in version 11 that allows you to lock your backups in a Linux backup repository. This will stop ransomware from destroying your backups.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Our primary use case is for the backup of our virtual machines.

The most valuable feature is the continuous backup.

At this point, my only complaint is about the licensing costs. We have not experienced any technical problems.

In the future, I would like to see better support for direct backup to tape.

We have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for two weeks.

This is a stable product and we haven't had any problems.

Our installation is not very large, so scaling is no issue.

We have seven users who are operators.

We have not needed to contact support.

The initial setup was straightforward and the deployment was quite quick.

We did the implementation ourselves.

Our licensing fees are paid yearly and the cost is about $12,000 Swiss Francs ($17,400 USD).

We did evaluate other options before adopting Veeam.

This is absolutely a product that I recommend.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We use Veeam for the backup and recovery of our production environment.

The most valuable feature is the ability to restore the VMs into a test environment.

Some of the best practice documentation could be improved.

The stability is perfect and we have not had any problems with it.

With respect to how much we use this solution, we don't expect to increase it. Rather, we're just going to keep our usage the same that we have.

Their support is pretty good and I haven't had any issues with it.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward.

We had an integrator do most of the implementation.

I am the only one in the organization who uses the software.

Overall, we are happy with this software and have not found any limitations to it.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

We use Veeam Backup and Replication for image backups.

We use Veeam Explorer for Exchange for single item restores and to restore mailboxes, which is good. With SQL Explorer, you can access SQL, and it's got some good tools that are integrated into the product. 

The Veeam physical backups for Windows is good, but I'm not sure about other operating systems. If you have a lot of central sites and remote sites, you can easily set up the replication and make it easier.

Veeam Backup and Replication is a very good product, but there's room for improvement. For example, if you have to set up multiple servers, there's a lot of work to configure and set up projects. But once it's set up, it's very easy to manage. I think you have to resize it in the data center, and then it's pretty simple. We can integrate the storage, and you can use data resizing and do a lot more.

The reporting feature can also be improved. Version 10 has come up with a better report, but version 9.4 isn't so good. I mean, it doesn't show whether we can allow customization of reports and more.

I have used Veeam Backup and Replication for one year. 

Veeam Backup and Replication is very stable. I haven't faced any problems with it so far.

Their technical support is excellent. Whenever I have contacted Veeam support, they were very good, very helpful, and supportive. Their website is a very good support site as well.

The initial setup is straightforward, and it took us about an hour to deploy.

I'm told that Veeam Backup and Replication is a cost-effective solution, and it's very competitive in terms of pricing. It's cheaper, and it's going to be up ahead of the competitors in terms of pricing by sockets. Compared to other vendors, they're much cheaper, and Veeam is almost everywhere now.

Veeam is very good. 

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Veeam Backup and Replication an eight.
