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."The most valuable features of Veeam Backup Replication are ease of use, dashboards, and reporting."
"Veeam is quick, easy to work with, and its support for Microsoft products is good. They also provide adequate solutions for backing up Microsoft applications in the cloud, such as Office 365."
"This is very user-friendly."
"Vendor integration for many of the enterprise features have allowed for us to have greater performance from our storage vendors further improving on our commitments to protect our clients' data."
"Its portability and being able to back up between different platforms are the most valuable features."
"It serves its intended purpose and it works well."
"Veeam is highly scalable. In one scenario, we started with 2,000 users and scaled up to 24,000."
"Veeam Backup Replication's snapshotting and cloning are the most valuable features."
"The installation was straightforward."
"The solution has helped reduce my company's cost by around 50 to 60 percent."
"You can back up the whole image."
"The solution captures the system state, so when we restore the system, it will be restored to the state it was in at the time of the backup."
"With Veritas System Recovery, we have the option to run an infinite number of full backups according to our requirements."
"It has a user-friendly interface."
"Offers good recovery quickly."
"The tool helps automate system recovery. The solution is most useful in scenarios involving restoration to a different environment. For instance, when migrating from a physical server to a virtual one, the tool facilitates conversion."
"During the initial setup especially, there's a bit of a learning curve."
"There are certain solutions, such as Rubrik and Cohesity, that are little by little, taking market share. Veeam needs to be more aggressive to keep their dominance in the space."
"I would like for them to develop the ability to fix the way it does backups. We can't pick a backup for one database. We have to do a backup on the whole Exchange VM. I'd like for them to change it to where we can do individual backups."
"There's a lot of room for improvement surrounding the backup process."
"The pricing could be better."
"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."
"The reporting feature can be improved."
"Veeam doesn't have the reporting part quite right. Its data visualization isn't as slick as other solutions like Veritas. For example, in Veritas, you can see a calendar that shows you which days are backed up. Veeam lacks features like that."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"Veritas System Recovery Manager offers some manager solutions, but there is room for improvement."
"It needs an easier interface."
"The pricing could be cheaper."
"The tool's deployment could be easier. The deployment itself isn't the issue; rather, the problem lies in configuring policies and testing everything before it's ready. We invest a significant amount of time in preparing for various scenarios. However, we often encounter situations where changes have occurred since our initial preparations. This can render the automation less valuable."
"Lacks the ability to protect the database snapshot."
"Veritas System Recovery’s pricing and local support need some improvement."
"The reliability is sometimes lacking."
