"I am not a direct user of this product, but my technical guys tell me that they like the product, and it is easy to use. We don't have any issues with it."
"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."
"The solution is quite stable."
"This is very user-friendly."
"It is cost-effective. A lot of times, people pick Veeam because of its price."
"Initially setting up the product is easy."
"The most valuable addition recently introduced is the Continuous Data Protection feature."
"The most valuable aspect is its reliability in recovering any replaceable data in the event of server issues in a production environment."
"Veeam Data Platform manages and protects data across multiple cloud environments amazingly."
"The solution's instant recovery feature is good and allows you to capture and copy individual files."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Veeam Data Platform copies data very efficiently."
"The tool's stability is good."
"It provides a much better user experience compared to other vendors. It works faster as well."
"I have used NetBackup. For heavy workloads or if I need consistent backup and restore, I prefer NetBackup over Veeam Backup Replication."
"Its licensing needs to be improved. Its licensing has become complex since last December. They have changed the way the product is licensed, and there is a lot of confusion. Sometimes, when a new version comes, it seems that it has not been tested enough because I usually find some bugs in it. It could also have more integration with other virtualization products, such as desktop virtualization products and open-source virtualization products."
"The initial setup is not always easy, and customers often need a lot of help to get Veeam up and running successfully."
"Lacks online training."
"I think Veeam needs to improve the file installation process, as well as more technical things like snapping feature issues. Sometimes during backup, when it's taking the scan snaps on the ESXi, it started and didn't remove the snapshot from there, which consumed storage on the EXSi. It could be improved with more technical depth. The response time for Veeam's technical support could also be improved."
"The scalability of the product in large organizations is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The web interface could be more visual."
"This is an expensive solution."
"Since the solution has many options, it is not easier to give tasks to schedule it."
"Expanding its compatibility to include Linux would represent a significant advancement."
"Veeam is not in SaaS right now."
"Veeam Data Platform needs to improve data backup for Oracle admin. It needs to improve its stability."
"Apart from security improvements, enhancing compatibility with various platforms and addressing limitations related to integration and verification would be beneficial."
"Regarding managing LQ or Liberty delivery, there was no system initially; it was solely for backing up Vista Disc. I suggested enhancing this option. However, my experience with Dibree was unsatisfactory. I recommended adding Azure for EBMI XPower backup and incorporating SolarWinds for end-of-month risk processes, which were not part of the initial solution."
"The product must provide better security."
"Setting up for my case was completely different. There were some product-level bugs that caused a lot of challenges for Veeam Data Platform. So, it took a while."
