Veeam Data Platform Reviews

• Centralized backup
• Remote WAN backup copy
• Replica
• Physical server backup.

If it backs up, then I'm sure it will restore!

• Application awareness (via Windows VSS Writers, Oracle RMAN integration, etc.)
• Quick migration.

Dedupe capabilities.

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.

Backup and replication.

Great RPO and RTO.

Replication.

Cross-hypervisor replication.

• Detailed monitoring and alerting (I loved the advanced monitoring and reporting at my previous organization)

Previously, the infrastructure was configured and backed up at the application level and configuration changes were not replicated. With replication at the infrastructure level now, we don't have to worry about configuration changes.

• Monitoring of Xen- and KVM-based virtualization

I have used it for approximately over one year.

I have not encountered any stability issues.

I have not scaled it until now.

I have not used technical support.

I did not previously use a different solution.

Initial setup was simple.

It’s a great tool and management should consider spending money for it, as it eases a lot of complexities.

I have been using the free version but would definitely opt for the paid version if management approves it.

Before choosing this product, I did not evaluate other options.

It’s a simple and reliable solution, especially as I have experience with VMware products (ESXi).

Ease of use, it's simple to backup and restore.

Backups don't fail often which saves time and data.

Backing up Exchange could be better, particularly Clustered Exchange.

No

No

No

No issues.

Excellent, their support is fast and efficient.

Backup Exec, I was looking for something designed for Virtual Machines.

In VMWare it's really fast. For Hyper V it took some tooling around.

In-House.

I didn't measure it but it saves me tons of time and no data loss so it has likely paid for itself many times over.

Unitrends

Do it, it's a great product and is easy to use.

The solution can be used to backup databases. For example, from Windows, Linux, and Oracle. It is sometimes used by government organizations for email backup. 

The solution is easy to use and have good performance.

The data duplication should be improved.

I have been using the solution for a long time.

I have found the solution to be stable.

The solution is scalable.

The technical support has not been good in my experience. They need to have faster and more reliable support for this solution.

The installation was straightforward for me since I have done it before. It might not be for first time users. The time for the installation all depends on the environment.

We have one technician for the maintenance and deployment.

There is a license required for this solution and the price is a bit expensive but it depends on the environment that you have on how much it will cost.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a seven out of ten.

• Simple VM backup & restore management console
• Works with both industry standard hypervisors, VMware & Hyper-V
• Fast and easy implementation
• Granular restore points for SharePoint

It provides simple DR operation & management for our heterogeneous virtualisation platform.

Besides Wintel environments, it would be good to have DR/HA for Unix/Linux platforms.

I have been using it for 1½ years.

We have not had any issues with deployment, stability, or scalability.

Customer service is awesome.

Initial setup was straightforward because it only provides DR.

Project implementation was via a vendor team.

We evaluated Availl software, because of their Wide Area File System technology.
