We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The intuitive interface allows you to set up and perform backups and restores easily.""The most valuable feature of Altaro VM Backup is its ability to backup and restore various types of data, including Active Directory, application servers, and SQL Server databases.""VM backup and the item level recovery are the most valuable features.""Excellent compression and deduplication with off-site WAN backup included.""This solution is stable.""The CDP backup feature is very nice, as it allows you to take backups at high frequencies and with application consistency.""The interface is user-friendly and even if our tech isn't onsite, we can work with the owners to confirm that the data will be restored with no issues.""We use the latest feature in Altaro called CDP (Continuous Data Protection) to back up our VMs as often as every five minutes. It allows us to make sure no data is accidentally deleted or overwritten."

"The most valuable features of Veeam ONE are the backup reports, such as the status of the storage.""The solution is quite stable.""I like the backup and backup copy features.""The product's initial setup phase was straightforward for me.""Veeam ONE is a very good management product...The technical support is very good, and I think it's one of the best. The response time is very quick.""The solution's customer service is good.""The solution is really easy and straightforward to use.""The best feature of Veeam ONE to me is the infrastructure analysis that you can perform before deploying a backup environment. You can put in your backup requirements, for example, repository files and improvements on your VMware side, to ensure that it runs optimally. Pricing for Veeam ONE is also cheaper than VMware vRealize Operations (vROps) which is a direct competitor in the ops space, so this is another advantage of the solution."

Cons
"The scalability of the solution is limited.""Basically, how it works is that you have a single local drive, and then you have a cloud backup. It'd be nice if you could rotate the single local backup drive. As of now, you can't.""Backup speed and comparisons between versions used to be slow on big VMs but that was improved greatly later on.""The cloud backup and VMware support (now available in the latest releases), could do with some improvement.""The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer.""To improve Altaro, I would like to see the ability to choose more than one backup location at a time.""It would be nice to see a feature that backs up the host so that, in case of a server failure, an entire server could be restored all at once.""Availability of physical server backup would be an added advantage."

More Hornetsecurity Altaro VM Backup Cons →

"In future releases, I would like to see more automation capabilities. It could integrate with automation services to automatically resolve identified issues rather than simply providing instructions to the user.""The appliance doesn't have a domain. If there was a competitor with a domain, I'd likely use them.""I've never considered what improvements Veeam needs, and I haven't asked our customers if there is any room for improvement. As the manager, I only see the reports.""I would like the solution to have better integration with other hypervisors and cloud features that are not exclusive to VMware.""The user experience can be better, as it is one of the areas with shortcomings in the product.""I think Veeam ONE should be included in the base product instead of as an add-on because customers tend to look for simple solutions that are integrated.""Creating reports is a bit difficult, and you have to spend some time on it.""Veeam's biggest limitation is the lack of integration. I can't use the tool because there is no integration between the tool and the environment."
