"As a manager, I find Veeam One's reporting service to be very helpful."
"Veeam One is a centralized management and centralized reporting tool. The tool has supportive infrastructure to create specialised applications and some server application. You can add all the resources and infrastructure. You will get the reports, can easily manage and monitor any feature."
"The solution is quite stable."
"The installation is pretty straightforward."
"I think Veeam ONE is a good product to supervise and monitor infrastructure and for backup purposes."
"The stability of Veeam ONE is good."
"It is easy to set up initially."
"The solution has many valuable features. Virtualization is flexible and it has simple clustering. However, the most important feature is the ability to move between VMs. The vMotion features are very good."
"The most valuable feature is being able to VMotion and migrate easily, moving machines around on the host. I know DRS will take care of a lot about that, but there's still some manual intervention here and there, so the flexibility of it has been really good."
"It is easy to manage the solution. It is scalable and very stable."
"We could easily move workloads from on-premises to the cloud and vice versa if we were running on-premises and cloud, which is one of the most important points in the new releases, in particular."
"It's extremely simple. Installing the ESXi is a piece of cake and then putting servers on there is really simple and having HA and building a cluster for our VM servers. It's very easy."
"This product is useful for running multiple virtual machines from a single server so that people can utilize the hardware resources in their organization. Its ability for backups is also valuable. In case of a disaster, you can recover the entire server from the images. It is easy to use. In terms of features, whatever they are providing is more than sufficient for us. We are not exploiting this product up to a hundred percent."
"An easy way of providing near-zero downtime services, the operation of the instances between clustered services, and providing the projected SLA for our customers."
"We use it for our VDI infrastructure and managing virtual machines."
"I've never considered what improvements Veeam needs, and I haven't asked our customers if there is any room for improvement. As the manager, I only see the reports."
"Not highly customizable."
"I would like the solution to have better integration with other hypervisors and cloud features that are not exclusive to VMware."
"It's not that easy to use from the management side."
"We'd like to see them add more custom templates."
"It would be better if the solution presented the number of servers and the success rate on the dashboard."
"They need to support more platforms."
"Veeam's biggest limitation is the lack of integration. I can't use the tool because there is no integration between the tool and the environment."
"The user interface could use some improvement."
"I would like them to move into having a containerized application to manage the vCenter."
"We need to improve availability and disaster recovery in VMware vSphere."
"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."
"If they improve on the knowledge base and documentation, it would be extremely helpful."
"Security and patch-related items need improvement."
"The solution could be cheaper and less expensive."
"The solution’s pricing is too high and could be improved."
