"The solution is already far more advanced than our customers require.

Users are generally happy because of the familiarity they have with the features.

Cons
"Azure Site Recovery's deployment is complex.

More Azure Site Recovery Cons →

"The biggest thing that Cloud Connect needs is native deduplication.""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.""Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases.""The bandwidth optimization needs to be improved and have better efficiency so that you send fewer amounts of data from one site to the other.""We need the solution to offer IT storage.""The solution needs to be more scalable. There should be no reason to set up Veeam Cloud Connect and have 10 servers in order to have a cloud backup. The initial setup could be easier.""I would like to see more advanced training courses made available to cover complicated use cases.""The solution could improve the stability."
