Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."My customer has Dell EMC CloudBoost integrated with all of their other Dell products. It integrates well."
"The solution's support team is excellent."
"Once you get it set up, everything is smooth, and the recovery is excellent."
"Replication and restore object in Exchange boxes with possibility to select part of Microsoft directory."
"The product allows us to use data more efficiently, reducing the cost of storage and backup time. It is vital to have data available in the shortest possible time."
"The most valuable feature is adaptability, where it automatically adapts to the environment that it's being installed on."
"The whole replication aspect of the solution is excellent because it compresses the data so well."
"Its backup capabilities in general are great."
"We get a lot of features with Veeam and we are happy to use this solution. After shutdown, the servers here automatically turn off and Veeam is keeping up all this. It's tension free work."
"One of the most valuable features of Veeam is that the restoration is easy and reliable."
"They should eliminate the tape-out function from the solution."
"It needs to support more applications. In terms of supported applications, Oracle SQL and Office 365 are supported, but I am not sure if it supports Linux-based applications. That's why I'm looking for an alternative. I am currently testing Commvault. The advantage of Commvault is that a lot of applications are supported with it. I am not sure if CIFS is currently supported. It would be nice to have this feature in case it is not already supported"
"I have also been struggling with the storage and in some cases I need to move things due to performance."
"They have an integration with MS SQL, and you have to license MS SQL. This is something they need to change. They should go for an open-source database or a free SQL because you're already buying this product, and you shouldn't have to buy another product."
"My biggest issue with Veeam at the moment is how the backup reports are displayed. We use the SolarWinds integration to generate consolidated reports for monitoring purposes, but we aren't getting all the available data shown to us in the way that we want."
"If they could add more support for all of the modern hypervisors, that would make Veeam much better and more flexible to work with. For example, there is no solution for VM to VM replication when it comes to Oracle OEM servers."
"I would like to have them come up with more robust features when it comes to individual endpoint protection."
"The implementation was straightforward. However, we used an integrator, the process could be easier for us to do it ourselves."
"There is some complexity we have experienced when using the solution that should be simplified."
