Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."It works with different types of partitions or different OSs."
"The image backup and image restore features have been very beneficial to us."
"For local backups, it has options to back up almost any storage. The back can be either a shared folder or anything you want, it's pretty flexible."
"In our recent experiences, Acronis Cyber Protect proved most valuable during instances of colleagues facing migration challenges due to ransomware impacts. In these situations, where servers and backups were affected, having a backup stored in external drives or other devices within our data centers posed risks. To address this vulnerability, we decided to shift to a cloud backup solution."
"It is a very fast and reliable backup, which requires less management and restores quickly."
"The most valuable feature is the quick restoration. We can restore the data quickly."
"The best thing about it is that we can back up pretty much everything we want to. We don't have to have multiple solutions. It can back up any physical or virtual server, including servers in Azure. It can back up SharePoint, OneDrive, and G Suite. Everything we need to back up can be backed up, and that's why we like it."
"The solution was easy to install and to deploy."
"The ease of use for the graphical interface and the ease of installation are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The most valuable feature is the instant restore option."
"I like the incremental backups and their failover."
"The solution is very simple. Management of the platform is so simple that we don't need to have any training to deploy this solution."
"Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward. The deployment is easy because Veeam is compatible with all our VMware services and VMs. Veeam Backup and Veeam ONE are integrated into vCenter or vSphere site deployments, so we don't need to deploy each server one by one."
"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to pick up individual files."
"What I found most valuable in Veeam Agent for Linux is that it can unify machines and even simplify management."
"The solution could be better if some of the features were more in-depth."
"It does not delete locked files."
"I would like to have more hardware space. It would make it better. I would like to have two more terabytes."
"If I could create a protected image backup on a computer partition that just would be just for the image backup; and only the program could access it to prevent viruses from getting into it. That would be very, very good."
"The solution could improve by providing more database backup features and have better integration with many different types of databases. We cannot implement it in all of our infrastructures."
"It would be better if they made it easier to obtain images for laptops and desktops. It isn't easy right now to have many different types of desktop computers. This is because Microsoft is changing a lot of things in Windows 10."
"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."
"It could have a better ability to manage backups over a longer period."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
"It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network."
"In new releases, I hope they can support Oracle cloud."
"It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side. For example, their agent for Windows not only can back up the Windows machine, but it can also back up Active Directory for granular restore, SQL servers, Exchange, Oracle, SharePoint, etc. When it comes to Linux, only Oracle databases are supported. There are workarounds, though."
"They could be more customer-friendly."
"Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."
"The integration needs improvement."
"There is a compatibility issue with HCI."
