Veritas NetBackup Reviews

We use the product for backup.

The tool's information transfer and patching up is easy. The solution offers protection from ransomware which is also a valuable feature. 

Data restoration from Veritas NetBackup is quite slow. I would also like documentation that I can share with my technical team. 

I have been working with the solution for a year. 

I would rate Veritas NetBackup's stability a seven out of ten. 

I would rate the tool's scalability a six out of ten. You may encounter issues when you expand the tool's usage. My company has 50 endpoints for the product. 

Veritas NetBackup is easy to install and I would rate it a seven out of ten. 

Veritas NetBackup is quite expensive and licensing costs are fixed. 

I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. 

Veritas NetBackup is a solution for system backups. They have recently integrated anti-ransomware.

Veritas NetBackup has some limitations and it would be a benefit if we had better documentation.

I have been using Veritas NetBackup for a few months.

Veritas NetBackup is a scalable solution.

The support has been good for Veritas NetBackup.

I have used Veritas Backup Exec previously. Veritas NetBackup is a far better solution.

The initial setup of Veritas NetBackup could be easier.

We had Veritas NetBackup do one of the installations in Algeria. We have good communications with the sales and technical teams.

We recommend this solution to a lot of customers. If they are using Veritas Backup Exec, I would advise them to upgrade to Veritas NetBackup.

I rate Veritas NetBackup a nine out of ten.

We are integrators, and we sell this solution. I am in a sales position.

In most cases, Veritas NetBackup is for carriers or the banking sector; these are our primary customers.

It includes many features and has all of the features that other solutions have.

I think this is the best backup solution that we have. It is very good for the infrastructure.

We had some issues with the hardware backup appliance. Our main customer is the one that is experiencing these issues.

I have been working with Veritas NetBackup for five or six years.

We are working with the latest version.

Last year, we started to sell this version.

Veritas NetBackup is a stable solution.

My colleagues in the engineering department handle this area.

I don't have any information regarding the installation.

The licensing model for this solution is very powerful. The licenses are related to the number of years.

We are Veritas partners.

I would rate Veritas NetBackup an eight out of ten.

Our primary use case is for backups.

We are a reseller. We use Veeam for a virtualization platform and we use Veritas for enterprise backup.

The solution is deployed on-premise.

The most valuable features are the ability to create a trust relationship and historical reports.

The pricing could be improved, and the interface could be more intuitive.

Our company has been using Veritas NetBackup for 10 years.

It is stable.

The solution is scalable.

I haven't had any issues with technical support. It's okay.

Pricing is expensive, so it could be lower.

I would rate this solution 6 out of 10.

NetBackup is used for backup in an enterprise environment. If you have VMware, Windows or Linux, and complicated database machines, like Power or Eonix, then NetBackup is appropriate for this kind of environment.

I like NetBackup's accelerator feature. You can take a full backup with incremental speed and integrate it with block tracking.

NetBackup's reporting features are a little poor. 

We've used NetBackup for nearly six years.

NetBackup is highly stable. 

I would give NetBackup a 10 out of 10 for scalability. 

I rate NetBackup nine out of 10. If you're implementing it, I wouldn't recommend installing the media server on a VMware environment. I would also suggest getting some limitations for a LAN-free backup.

I primarily use the solution to back up vital aspects of our workload.

The backup aspect of the solution is the most valuable aspect of the solution.

The product is quite flexible. 

The product is stable and reliable. 

We would like the Java console to be updated. They need to redo the console so that it is no longer on Java. It's outdated. 

I've been using the solution for three years. I've used it for a while. 

I have found the solution to be stable for the most part. It's not buggy. I haven't dealt with glitches. it doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable so far. 

I haven't really used technical support. I wouldn't be able to effectively comment on how their services are or if they are helpful if a client has an issue. 

I did not handle the initial setup. Therefore, I cannot speak to how easy or difficult the setup process is, or how long the deployment takes 

We're a Veritas partner. 

I use two versions of the solution: 8.3.0.1 and 9.1. We use it both on-premises and on the cloud. 

I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten. I've been pretty satisfied with it overall.

We are a solution provider company and we have several support contracts with our customers. We try to select the best solution for each. In smaller environments, we prefer using Veeam Backup. For our larger enterprise customers, we use Veritas NetBackup. This solution is very stable and flexible for experts who wants a feature full backup solution.

Veritas NetBackup is implemented as a primary tool in the organization for making backup a huge landscape of Aix, Unix, Virtualization, and Windows machines. This includes Oracle, DB2, and SQL Database, and etc.
We mainly looked at a trusted long-timer in the market to be able to invest to ensure the solution is proven to be trusted.

In my view, it's been a reliable backup solution for all of our enterprise customers. Our maintenance cost has been reduced and we were able to have more time to service more customers.

As one of the best data backup and recovery solution worldwide, NetBackup gives enterprise IT a flexible and powerful way to ensure the integrity and availability of their data from the edge to the core to the cloud.

The main feature Includes:

Flexible Deployment: Support for any workload, any cloud, any architecture at any scale.

Operational Simplicity: Orchestrate and automate discovery, protection, and recovery.

Enterprise-Grade Resiliency: Ensure recovery of business-critical data with near-zero RPO and RTO.

Veritas integrates well with the cloud, all databases, all operating systems, all hardware, and all software. Veritas also has solid malware and ransomware protection features. From time to time, we face a new kind of attack, and Veritas has always proven to be the best protection solution for some of my customers. Our customers who have faced ransomware attacks were able to recover their data in less than one day without any stress. Veritas is ransomware resilient and because of its implementation, it is not dependent on the operating system to work. Most of the functions of the Veritas software are isolated from the operating system and it's not dependent on the operating systems involved. This is very important. When some of our operating systems are infected by a virus, Veritas still works perfectly and protects our data. This feature is very well implemented in Veritas NetBackup.

Main features of Veritas NetBackup are:
Log management and truncation.
Third-party integrations.
Hypervisor aware.
Physical and virtual protection.
Cloud system security.
API integration.
Database consistency preservation.
Integrated appliance.

Like the other enterprise solutions, Veritas NetBackup isn't easy to implement. It's a little bit hard compared to other solutions like Data Protector for HPE. You have to struggle to learn a lot of features that Veritas NetBackup offers to customers. I don't think it's impossible to simplify this solution. Some solutions like backup solutions are mandatory solutions and they are inherently complicated because you have to integrate them with other services. We have a lot of services and each service has its own conditions. After several years, every engineer can learn most features of this solution and in some companies, they could use support from the source company. As such, I think it's not challenging for all customers. 

I have been using this Backup solution for more than 15 years.

In Veritas, I'm hoping for a better price. Veritas NetBackup is very expensive, and I think price is the main reason which some customers don't want to use this solution. 

When evaluating and choosing a solution, it depends on the situation. We choose the best solution for our customers, so it's hard to say if I would recommend Veritas over Veeam. In many ways, Veritas is a unique product. It has advantages when you want to transfer your data over SAN. SAN backup solutions are very important in some environments. Where window time is very limited for them and a huge amount of data needs to be transferred in less than five or six hours a day, we have to use a SAN backup feature. In this area, Veeam is not good compared to Veritas NetBackup. When you want to use this feature, you have to share the mainline of your storage with Veeam Backup, and many customers refuse to adopt this method of SAN backup. Many customers don't want to compromise their source of data, so they prefer Veritas' SAN backup in this area. I think it's one of the best, like IBM TSM.

I would rate Veritas NetBackup nine out of 10. I can't find any problems. I think it is the best. I think it's perfect.

I use it to back up servers, databases, files, and photos. 

I like the virtual server backup. 

Maybe they could add more cloud solutions.

I've been using NetBackup for more than 10 years.

It's very stable and very good.

It's easy to scale. 

Technical support is very good.

It's somewhat complex. It wasn't very easy but it's fixable. It takes about one or two hours to deploy.

I would give it a nine out of 10.
