We performed a comparison between AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery and Veeam Backup & Replication based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."For regular backup and restore solutions, this product is fine."
"It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests."
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users."
"The initial setup is really straightforward."
"The setup is pretty straightforward."
"The solution is dependent on the network bandwidth. For example, if they have a bandwidth of 10Mbps the solution will run a little heavier. If the bandwidth is good the solution runs well."
"The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads."
"We have never had any issues with scalability."
"The standout feature for us is instant recovery."
"Veeam Is very useful for most environments and can scale up in most environments - such as Amazon or Azure."
"If you have a lot of central sites and remote sites, you can easily set up the replication and make it easier."
"It's a pretty complete product."
"The solution is very easy to deploy."
"Features with the most value are Instant VM Recovery, SQL Explorer and Exchange Explorer."
"One of the most valuable features is the simplicity of the solution's administration."
"It serves its intended purpose and it works well."
"I set up a test, deleted the source, and went to fail it back, and it didn't work."
"The user interface, customer support, and the recovery time for the current customer query could use improvement."
"The UI could be a little sleeker."
"The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line."
"I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives."
"The failback could be improved. It should be more intuitive."
"I have not seen any areas that need improvement at this time."
"Definitely there should be better logging. From a customer perspective I would like to see more logs on what is happening. If there is an issue, I would like to know what the problem is. Right now, we have to depend on the support of the vendor to check and let us know, because we don't have access to a lot of logging information."
"I think that Veeam could improve some performance issues when the backup itself is restored. I'm also using HPE StoreOnce, which has deduplication, and when I'm trying to test or run backups, it takes a lot of time. I think they could improve the testing for backup copies."
"I would want them to improve some technical features that are still missing because we are working with NetApp NVMe and they're not fully supporting it yet. But both NetApp and Veeam know about it and they're working on it."
"The deduplication feature could be improved by changing to global deduplication."
"If you do not use the standard software and you go with a third-party solution such as this one, it might not work the same. There is an integration issue I understand between the database standards."
"The cost needs to be considered."
"The initial setup can get complex."
"The initial setup of Veeam Backup Replication is straightforward. The process took approximately two days. The setup could be streamlined to take less time."
"I have used NetBackup. For heavy workloads or if I need consistent backup and restore, I prefer NetBackup over Veeam Backup Replication."
