"Veeam Cloud Connect has helped us to reduce the cost of cloud storage for an offsite solution using their archive storage feature."
"Pricing is fairly reasonable and not overly expensive."
"Its performance is fine. It supports us very well. It is able to support our policy for RTO, RPO, and other things that we need."
"The features I find most valuable are probably the VMware snapshot backups and the Veeam replication. Their replication is very good. It can easily be used for disaster recovery in a number of situations."
"One of the most valuable features is the simplicity of the solution's administration."
"Its simplicity and the fact that it just works are most valuable. We kind of set it up and generally forget about it. It does what we need it to do in the background, and it doesn't involve a lot of management."
"Its ease of use for restore is really good. For Exchange, the Exchange Active Directory is great."
"The initial setup is complex."
"Areas that need improvement would be the support for recovery in the physical environment."
"While the product does support various databases, the company needs to make more of an effort to support N-minus-one compatibility."
"Google has stopped supporting the on-premise version of the tool."
"The solution doesn't support AIX software or in-cloud, and we have a lot of servers running on AIX and Oracle."
"Lacks the option to price backup costs within the solution itself."
"The direct SAN backup integration can be perfected by improving the snapshot removal mechanism and process from the storage volumes."
"The solution could improve by having a version to be compatible with the Linux system. They have improved the storage depository using the Linux proxy and Linux storage, but it can completely run on the Linux environment it would be much better."
"Backup speed should be increased, and there should be more functionality."
"If a single file is corrupt then the restoration of the entire backup will fail."
"I like the Acronis backup solutions on the block-based part of backups. That is a functionality that Veeam does not provide."
"I would like to see the licensing model improved. They have recently changed the model and have made it more complicated."
"It would be ideal if users could know that their data is backed up and have some security functionality where you can actually use the backup to spin up a new cluster and take it from there."
"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."
