Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."All of the features are fantastic and also the management from Microsoft dealing with multiple machines is great. The whole package is excellent for me."
"We frequently use the granular restore option for when our users accidentally delete files or to recover emails from mailboxes. We have found that to be a must-have feature and it comes with the solution at no extra cost."
"The ease of use of the solution is its most valuable feature. The interface is also excellent."
"The initial setup was simple and easy. Anyone without prior experience can install, configure, and use it."
"The product has many valuable features for handling backup needs, including replication, live migration, and incremental disaster recovery."
"The ability to test the backups without having to manually mount the VHDs after restore allows us to check the integrity of the backups."
"The CDP backup feature is very nice, as it allows you to take backups at high frequencies and with application consistency."
"Valuable features for us include quick recovery, compression, and deduplication."
"The most valuable features are the fast replication and recovery of data."
"The most valuable quality of Veeam Cloud Connect is its reliability."
"The administration and management integrate with multiple solutions, not just with one or two environments, even if they're not VMware products."
"While there are some complexities, Veeam tries to keep the product simple and offers a good knowledge base. It's quite structured, so you can easily take one subject and learn about it simply by reading through the documentation."
"The deployment is quite simple. Users are generally happy because of the familiarity they have with the features. The solution offers good transparency for the end-user."
"It's a stable solution."
"A really good feature is backing up the emails of the company."
"One of the most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect is it does not require the use of an extremely fast internet connection for it to work. The backup process is automated which is great."
"The scalability of the solution is limited."
"Replication is not fast, the GUI could be more user-friendly, and technical support is lacking in Iran."
"The cloud backup and VMware support (now available in the latest releases), could do with some improvement."
"To improve Altaro, I would like to see the ability to choose more than one backup location at a time."
"If you look into the performance of a virtual machine and you look to the performance of the physical machine, the correlation between these is totally unclear."
"Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful."
"The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer."
"Availability of physical server backup would be an added advantage."
"The security of encrypted data could be better."
"We need the solution to offer IT storage."
"We encountered some issues with stability at the beginning."
"It would be helpful if the enterprise edition was more complete. It's not as complete as the enterprise plus edition is. For instance, in the enterprise version, we can only use one accelerator with the cloud provider. It means if I have my Cloud Connect, I cannot connect another site of mine with another cloud connect and use an accelerator of Veeam. They should change this."
"We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers."
"I would like to see more advanced training courses made available to cover complicated use cases."
"We were interested in investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in VMware. VMware right now is one of the biggest solutions in the world, in terms of the IT environment. But for Cloud Connect it's not. I think they need the cloud version to reach more customers, to enable the cloud version to be used by more people."
"The flexibility results in more administrative GUI. The GUI needs improvement."
