We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I believe the solution is very scalable. We can continuously add mailboxes and sites.""It is easy to set up. You can use some functions to make sure you get the maximum bandwidth to do the backup. It has an option to bypass Microsoft network limitations and things like that.""The solution is stable and reliable.""Veeam Backup gives you the option to backup your data from the cloud to on-premises.""The product is easy-to-use.""Its ability to restore at the item level is very valuable. It is very strong at that. In the past, we had to restore a lot of data only for a couple of items. We can now restore an item as well as an email, which is good for productivity.""One of the valuable features is the ability to restore a specific email. For example, if a user has deleted an email and they would like that particular email back we are able to restore it.""Once you set it up, it works very well. You do not have to go back to reconfigure it– it is very easy to use"

"he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources.""I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope.""It's a good solution. It's pretty stable.""The most valuable features are the ease of administration and the ease of configuration.""Veritas is loaded with features because the appliance is ready to integrate with the cloud in cases where the customers have a hybrid or cloud environment.""The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it.""The most valuable feature is that it is simple to use.""It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field."

Cons
"Some additional training materials would be helpful.""The solution should provide more integration with Teams and SharePoint Online to perform other tasks.""This is a cloud solution, and the speed can be slow sometimes.""As with all things, the solution can be improved by reducing the cost.""They need to enable the encryption of backups so that nobody can gain access unless they have encryption details.""They should improve the backup and restoration time.""A while back, I had some trouble using the agent. It might be a problem with older versions. Sometimes, I also have issues installing or making backups from the console to that type of operating system.""In the next release, it should have direct export to tape drive abilities and NDMP support."

"The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching.""The usability of the solution isn't the best.""The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with.""The technical team wasn't very helpful.""Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS.""An area for improvement is the product's performance, especially how long it takes to do a job.""In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines.""The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
