We performed a comparison between Veeam Backup & Replication and VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery (DR) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I'm satisfied with tech support, because the solution is so stable that I haven't had the need to engage any of the engineers yet."
"Veeam's file monitoring capabilities are strong and consistent."
"The setup was straightforward Veeam Backup Replication. NetBackup is a larger solution and takes more time to implement but Veeam Backup Replication takes approximately 40 days."
"It is a good solution for backups and reporting."
"It is a stable product with useful snapshot and replication features."
"It's fairly easy to manage and set up."
"WAN Accelerator helps tremendously with replicating our data because we have a large chunk of data that gets replicated between our two facilities."
"Simple and stable."
"Setting up VMs can be done quickly. It is easy to use."
"Technical support is very proactive and helpful."
"We feel the ability to move virtual machines while they are still running to be the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable features are the backup and disaster recovery services."
"The initial setup is easy depending on the environment you are working with."
"Near-synchronous, better RPO and RTO snapshot-based takes a lot of space and resources."
"The pricing model could be improved. It can be made cheaper."
"Restoration takes about two to four hours with Veeam. Zerto can restore in about 10 seconds. That's the restoration speed I'm looking for now that we're dealing with ransomware."
"The scalability of the product in large organizations is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The implementation of the features can be improved. Currently, there is no segregation of duty. Normally, any backup software or client service software is implemented in a way where one person is responsible for the implementation of the server, and one is responsible for the client, but Veeam Backup & Replication is not implemented in that way. Therefore, restores don't work like that. The backup guys have to do the restores, which is not a good thing. Its pricing should also be improved. It is quite expensive."
"I have also been struggling with the storage and in some cases I need to move things due to performance."
"Although the solution offers documentation, it has it only in English, which doesn't help us much in Belarus."
"The DR component should be part of the comprehensive package, not separate."
"It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution."
"VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery could improve by enhancing the network bandwidth from the storage."
"The improvements should be as per customer requirements."
"The automation should be simplified or improved."
"When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient."
