"We turn on the solution and it works well for backing up our data, it is easy to use."
"Technical support is great."
"The disaster recovery feature."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it can cover both the cloud and the on-prem devices."
"The product has been very reliable from day one. The biggest advantage of the cloud is that you can scale up and down as you go along."
"The ease of implementation is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is simple to do in Veeam Backup Replication."
"Replication and restore object in Exchange boxes with possibility to select part of Microsoft directory."
"Sandbox feature is like a power tool for troubleshooting."
"Once you get it set up, everything is smooth, and the recovery is excellent."

"It's the most easy-to-use backup replication that I have used so far."
"The solution can work for companies no matter the size or scope."
"I faced some problems with the solution's local sign-in part."
"The reporting could be improved. I would like to see some enhancements in that regard."
"The shortcomings in the solution can be overcome if the product improves in the area of completion time so that the restoration process does not take much time."
"I would rate the product an eight out of ten. The tool needs to have better protection. The tool should be also able to take backups while users are offline and upload to the cloud whenever the internet connection is restored or if there is a good bandwidth."
"Technical support needs improvement. They are too slow to respond, and when it comes to backups, it's critical to deal with issues quickly."
"One of the areas where the product could be improved is its online cloud backup. I do appreciate the way the product is easy to navigate, however, sometimes I have difficulty managing the security permissions on my backups."
"Its mailbox migration feature needs improvement."
"The Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud server could improve by having better performance."
"In the past, Veeam had a host-based license, but now it will be part of Microsoft's core license. I don't like this licensing model. Host-based licensing is better for my system. Maybe so other organizations prefer the core-based."
"It is efficient but can improve security-wise."
"Sometimes Veeam is not that effective when it comes to legacy environments."
"The Cloud version is not ready, they need maturity and ease of deployment in terms of management."
"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 interface and cluster environments could be improved in the future as presently they are using agent interface instead of user interface. Also, the backup for the Oracle WAC environment can be improved."
"It is always nice to get products cheaper."
"The price can be better."
