Veeam is working on storage snapshot integration and version 9 has some coming. Hopefully Nimble one day.

Highlights
Before Veeam, we had backup infrastructure sprawl. Veeam was able to reduce our overall backup windows while reducing our dedicated backup infrastructure.
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.
Features with the most value are Instant VM Recovery, SQL Explorer and Exchange Explorer.
The whole replication aspect of the solution is excellent because it compresses the data so well.
The user interface is good and it is very easy to use.
The most valuable feature is the ability to verify that backups are valid.
The most valuable feature is adaptability, where it automatically adapts to the environment that it's being installed on.
