"End-users like that they can rely on the Snapshot technology so they can do their restores themselves."
"For virtualization it's perfect."
"We get a lot of features with Veeam and we are happy to use this solution. After shutdown, the servers here automatically turn off and Veeam is keeping up all this. It's tension free work."
"The initial setup is simple to do in Veeam Backup Replication."
"The encryption password is used to protect the backup files. Even if someone gains access to the backup job or files, they won't be able to utilize them without the password."
"The backups we have been receiving from Veeam Backup Replication on-premise have been good."
"Enables us to restore the VM when the needs arises and for disaster recovery."
"They introduced a new feature called the Immutable Repository feature, which helps protect environments from malware attacks that target backup file extensions."
"With regard to our operational requirements, Veeam is very good because it's so user-friendly."
"As I see it, there could be more interfaces, more cache, etc."
"The high cost of the product is an area of concern, so from an improvement perspective, the tool needs to be made cheaper."
"Dedicated storage efficiency accelerators could improve the overall performance of the system."
"There is room for improvement in deployment and configuration processes."
"They should add new features to the product."
"The NetApp FAS Series is not as high-performing and is not as fast. Its speed needs improvement, but this could only be done if it's an all-flash solution."
"If our customer needs a high-performance storage solution then we don't recommend this product."
"Needs more SAN support."
"During the initial setup especially, there's a bit of a learning curve."
"The integration with other solutions should be improved."
"Veeam Backup & Replication could improve by making it more user-friendly."
"The SME that helped us with the implementation would probably have more insight because he used it way more than we have. We just use it for making sure that our backups are done daily, and the replications are being performed between sites. We haven't had any issues at all with it other than the fact that there is a slight process to acquire additional licenses if we want to expand our number of hosts. That's because it is based on the number of cores and threads that are used."
"The product is missing some commonsense features and tools for an enterprise backup recovery product,"
"In the next release I would like to see a bit more intelligence as far as a solution or troubleshooting - to put it more on the level of resolution and not simply identifying there is a problem."
"Veeam Backup Replication could improve by having more comparably with other hardware with the immutable copy feature."
"The Veeam portal should be better integrated with all the parts of the new release. But there's always a workaround to replicate the new solution. I'd like to have better integration with other solutions like SAP."
