"Veeam ONE is the best and the most mature solution for hypervisors and physical machines."
"The solution is stable."
"I like the backup and backup copy features."
"The feature that we have found most valuable is its traffic plan. The traffic plan is very good."
"First, I like that this solution is fast. Second, I like the stability and flexibility."
"It is easy to set up initially."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The most valuable features are the seamless HA with vMotion and being able to run vCenters in HA mode."
"Visibility: We can easily pull reports and give access to other people to look at specs or performance metrics."
"The fact that we have the ability to easily scale out, and the ability to do maintenance on the underlying hardware without impacting our business applications, are important aspects."
"Also, the automated builds are being done through it, and we don't have to manually do it anymore. All of my AIS platforms are completely automated now with the VM suite."
"VMware vSphere is a very stable product."
"The main benefit of the version 6.7 is that it makes end-users able to use the interface much more effectively. They don't have to install a client on their machine, they can do it from their phone, their laptop, their tablet, any OS, anytime. It's a better experience for the end-user."
"As an end-user, I would say it has allowed us to have the flexibility of moving around our workloads on different machines, and not having to worry if anything is down."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution is the ease of deployment. It's also user-friendly and has been on the market for more than a decade, so it's a leading technology in hypervisor solutions."
"The support, reporting part and customization should all be improved."
"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."
"Veeam One has its ransomware monitoring, but it's based on static parameters."
"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."
"It is not easy to navigate, especially with the numerous reports available."
"The product’s stability has certain issues and needs to be improved. The solution’s pricing could be also cheaper."
"They need to support more platforms."
"We'd like to see them add more custom templates."
"I would suggest that the tool reconsider its pricing strategy. The recent price hikes could potentially pose a problem for VMware in the future. The recent price increases, especially since Broadcom acquired them, seem excessive. There are reports of businesses experiencing massive price hikes, sometimes as much as 10-30 times higher. This is causing smaller businesses to consider exiting the space altogether."
"The biggest issue with stability is the SSO. That is still an issue as far as integrating it with Active Directory, and any large scale of it."
"Lacks a simplified integration with services automation."
"We would like to see the container-based operating system launched soon for this solution."
"The quality of support could be better."
"I would like to see a more automated upgrade, where you take the other products into account, so you can upgrade the entire VMware stack from a single interface."
"They have multiple components required for the setup. It would be better to integrate it into one solution, especially for small business companies."
"Response time could be improved."
