"The solution is stable and the performance is good."
"The solution's instant recovery feature is good and allows you to capture and copy individual files."
"The most valuable addition recently introduced is the Continuous Data Protection feature."
"I think Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) is an excellent solution for ensuring user-side disaster recovery. It involves a platform on-premise, which can be replicated to another site. It's a very effective solution, and we prioritize both the FTO and the FTO."
"The platform has a useful disaster recovery feature."
"Backup and restore features are valuable."
"Continuous Data Protection is a game-changing technology."
"When it comes to service cases, I would choose Veeam Data Platform over Commvault because restoring from Commvault can be time-consuming due to filtering tasks. Veeam Data Platform, on the other hand, offers a much simpler and faster restore process."
"The solution is quite easy to configure."
"I would like to have the capability of backing up a physical machine, as opposed to just a VM."
"Offering mobile apps that give engineers a global view of his backup regime would be a "nice to have" feature."
"We would like to see support for some additional storage systems."
"I have a problem with the VM. When we started doing a backup, it takes a snapshot for our virtual machines, but when we try it two or three times, in some cases, our virtual machines go to a consolidated state. I don't know why this problem happens. But I still think Veeam is a top-ranking solution."
"The stability for AIX machines could be better."
"I have also been struggling with the storage and in some cases I need to move things due to performance."
"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."
"Limited support for environments other than VMware or Microsoft."
"The product must improve its performance."
"The solution’s scalability could be improved."
"Veeam's support services need improvement."
"There might be room for improvement at the plugin level, specifically concerning application plugins."
"It would be nice if the solution scanned for malware in the backups."
"It would be beneficial if it could expand its coverage to support Frostbox and provide greater flexibility for service providers to recommend backup solutions based on customer preferences in prospective environments."
"Regarding managing LQ or Liberty delivery, there was no system initially; it was solely for backing up Vista Disc. I suggested enhancing this option. However, my experience with Dibree was unsatisfactory. I recommended adding Azure for EBMI XPower backup and incorporating SolarWinds for end-of-month risk processes, which were not part of the initial solution."
"The cost of the product is an area that would prevent me from using it in the future."
