Veritas Backup Exec Reviews

We implement digital solutions for our customers and this is one of the products that we help them with. It handles their backup and recovery.

In most cases, our customers use a private cloud deployment model.

The most valuable feature is the ability to back up IBM Power virtual servers. The functionality does not even exist in Veeam. 

I would like to see a more powerful and effective processor in the appliance.

Compared to other vendors, there are features that you will find not included in Veritas.

I have used this solution for approximately twenty years.

This is a very stable solution.

The scalability of this solution is good. It is very flexible.

Technical support for this solution is good, and I haven't and any problems with them.

This was our first backup solution.

This initial setup of this solution is not complex, but once it is deployed you need to have somebody who can handle it.

There were no other vendors on our shortlist. We did evaluate a few other products, but our customers did not need the whole portfolio. 

This is a solution that I recommend.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Protection plans can now be created by performing fewer steps, as compared to version 2010.Software deployment is straight forward. The homepage has been redesigned, which provides detailed statistics about backup operations, media, and job statuses.Remote agent installation is also simple; when you go to the Backup and Restore options it displays all the systems that have agents running.Backups can be restored or converted into virtual machines running in VMware or Hyper-V environments.Multiple systems can be placed in groups to share the backup strategies

Most features work when agents are installed on servers, but you have to pay extra for most of them. The product is totally redesigned and requires some patches and updates to become fully compatible with different types of environments.

Symantec Backup Exec 2012 is a feature rich tool for data protection and recovery. It can protect both physical and virtual environments to avoid disasters and reduces down time.

Veritas Backup Exec is used for backups and disaster recovery.

The most valuable feature of Veritas Backup Exec is the ease of use.

The solution could improve by having better documentation.

I have been using Veritas Backup Exec for approximately 15 years.

The installation is straightforward, other solutions are more difficult, such as Veritas NetBackup. The whole process took approximately three to five days.

We have two technicians who are deploying Veritas Backup Exec and are managing the solution.

I would recommend this solution to others. We have a lot of success stories with this solution. It is very easy to use and others have a high opinion of the solution.

I rate Veritas Backup Exec a ten out of ten.
