Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The backup and restore features are helpful."
"What I like most is it is a professional product. It supports all kinds of technologies, and I consider it one of the best backup products available."
"We were evaluating other products and getting confused between Commvault and Veritas NetBackup. The one reason that we started with Veritas NetBackup is the pricing of the license. There's no other reason from a technical perspective or even operation or capability of the two software. The main reason we chose Veritas NetBackup was that in our use case it is more cost-effective."
"We believe that everything Veritas NetBackup offers, including backups, snapshots, deduplication, and replication, is valuable."
"Its ability to cover a large spectrum of products and operating systems is invaluable. We evaluated other products but always found certain limitations like some products had only intel-based virtualization, while others had power servers."
"NetBackup is highly stable. We have more than 1,800 policies that run every day."
"I am comfortable with using this product."
"Veritas NetBackup is a reliable, easy-to-use, and easy-to-deploy solution."
"The solution captures the system state, so when we restore the system, it will be restored to the state it was in at the time of the backup."
"The solution has helped reduce my company's cost by around 50 to 60 percent."
"You can back up the whole image."
"With Veritas System Recovery, we have the option to run an infinite number of full backups according to our requirements."
"The installation was straightforward."
"The tool helps automate system recovery. The solution is most useful in scenarios involving restoration to a different environment. For instance, when migrating from a physical server to a virtual one, the tool facilitates conversion."
"It has a user-friendly interface."
"Offers good recovery quickly."
"This solution would benefit from a more friendly, web-based interface."
"It's a little bit complex to manage."
"We would like the Java console to be updated."
"When the customer is using SaaS applications like Office 365, the integration falls short and needs to be improved."
"The only pain point we have with this solution is the cost. It's very expensive. In fact, it's so expensive we are looking for other platforms. We want to move away from it in order to save our organization costs."
"Once the protection plan is created, we cannot pause or resume via the web administration page."
"It needs support for Kernel-based Virtual Machines (KVMs)."
"There could be granular control over metadata components, specifically in the context of JSON data for the product."
"Lacks the ability to protect the database snapshot."
"The reliability is sometimes lacking."
"We faced issues with recovery and restoration."
"It needs an easier interface."
"The tool's deployment could be easier. The deployment itself isn't the issue; rather, the problem lies in configuring policies and testing everything before it's ready. We invest a significant amount of time in preparing for various scenarios. However, we often encounter situations where changes have occurred since our initial preparations. This can render the automation less valuable."
"Veritas System Recovery’s pricing and local support need some improvement."
"Veritas System Recovery Manager offers some manager solutions, but there is room for improvement."
"The pricing could be cheaper."
