We performed a comparison between Veeam ONE and VMware vSphere based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, IBM, Nutanix and others in Virtualization Management Tools."Veeam ONE is the best and the most mature solution for hypervisors and physical machines."
"I like the backup and backup copy features."
"Veaam ONE is a very good product in virtualized environments."
"Storage gateway feature is very flexible."
"Veeam ONE is a straightforward solution and compatible with almost all hardware."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward for me."
"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."
"The feature that we have found most valuable is its traffic plan. The traffic plan is very good."
"I definitely like the stability, performance and ease-of-use."
"Has many good features, and is stable and reliable."
"The ease of movement of these machines is the most valuable. It is very easy to move these machines between physical hosts. The fast deployment of services is another valuable feature."
"Visibility: We can easily pull reports and give access to other people to look at specs or performance metrics."
"It is easy to use."
"VMware vSphere is user friendly. It is scalable and stable."
"Some of the most valuable features are: the ability to Snapshot so that when we do updates we have a layer of protection for simplified rollback; the replication that we can leverage for data center failures and data center downtime; the ease of migrating workloads from physical device to physical device for maintenance that we have to do on physical servers."
"The scalability of the solution is good. You can scale up to maximum levels."
"The product’s stability has certain issues and needs to be improved. The solution’s pricing could be also cheaper."
"There is a bug that prevents enabling the restore button, which is hectic."
"For our company's usage, the price of the product is considered to be one of the major drawbacks because we have a lot of infrastructure, and its services don't fit well with our needs."
"Veeam ONE should make available notifications through SMS."
"Perhaps the interface could be improved, though it has always been fine for me."
"Veeam ONE could improve by having capacity planning, intelligent automatization, and ransomware."
"Creating reports is a bit difficult, and you have to spend some time on it."
"Veeam ONE should improve its UI."
"There are some limitations with the solution regarding migrating."
"I would like more Amazon stuff inside of VMware."
"The cost could always be lower."
"Customer support takes a long time to respond."
"vSphere itself is great when you don't need to make updates, but any time you have to touch it, unfortunately it's always the little bit of a fight to get it to do what you want."
"It is not easy to upgrade VMware vSphere from an old version to a new version."
"VMware vSphere is perfect for the on-premise solution, but we are in the cloud era, so I think maybe VMware needs to invest more in the cloud and the microservice chain. It would be better if VMware offered more cloud solutions and continuous applications."
"An improvement could be in terms of keeping up with the upgrades. The upgrades could be set in an automated way so that the newer features don't require you to manually update, or you get an option to update automatically. This would be a useful enhancement."
