"The ease of use of the solution is its most valuable feature. The interface is also excellent."
"The product has many valuable features for handling backup needs, including replication, live migration, and incremental disaster recovery."
"Reverse Delta is Altaro proprietary backup deduplication technology. With Reverse Delta, the latest version of a file is always made available in its entirety, not as a delta file."
"Ability to restore to any host."
"The initial setup was simple and easy. Anyone without prior experience can install, configure, and use it."
"We use the latest feature in Altaro called CDP (Continuous Data Protection) to back up our VMs as often as every five minutes. It allows us to make sure no data is accidentally deleted or overwritten."
"Excellent compression and deduplication with off-site WAN backup included."
"I don't have any major problems with the agent connectivity with Microsoft applications or Microsoft Azure."
"The product is free to use. We don't have to pay for a license."
"The solution is very affordable for small businesses."
"The most valuable feature is that it's a VMware environment."
"This is a good product with a simple environment."
"I love Veeam because it is very easy to work with."
"The most valuable features are backup and restore. This solution is also easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to navigate inside a backup point to look for a specific folder or data you want to recover."
"Basically, how it works is that you have a single local drive, and then you have a cloud backup. It'd be nice if you could rotate the single local backup drive. As of now, you can't."
"Replication is not fast, the GUI could be more user-friendly, and technical support is lacking in Iran."
"Stability."
"It would be nice to see a feature that backs up the host so that, in case of a server failure, an entire server could be restored all at once."
"It would be nice to be able to recover the items to their original location."
"Improvement areas for Altaro VM Backup include enhancing backup and deduplication solutions for continuous operation and offering an all-in-one solution for hardware backup."
"Backup speed and comparisons between versions used to be slow on big VMs but that was improved greatly later on."
"Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful."
"There isn't really anything I would like to improve. Maybe the solution could be more secure."
"I am not very impressed by the technical support I received when I had an issue."
"If they could let you can do replication to physical servers - a backup from physical servers and a replication to physical servers - that will be better."
"Some customers have Oracle databases and Veeam does support back up of Oracle databases."
"The solution's compression ratio and high speed for backing up can always improve. Aspects that need improvement are less time, better quality, higher security, and more compression. These are continuous requirements for any customer."
"Maybe in the future, they could do something better with the user interface and the performance, but so far it's a really good, efficient solution."
"There are not many options available for AIX backup. They provide the agent for AIX, but it could be more mature."
"I can't think of anything that may be missing."
