Cons
"One area for improvement with Azure is helping customers predict usage more accurately.""Site Recovery's scalability could be improved.""When it runs, it runs well but when it doesn't run, the solution needs to make it clearer as to why and what the troubleshooting process is. All this would be possible if the error logging was streamlined a bit.""Azure Site Recovery's deployment is complex. There are a lot of bugs, and it needs to improve stability.""The pricing predictability and clarity around the final cost of the plan of this solution could be improved.""The immutable backup could be better.""It would be good if we could replicate the solution to multiple locations simultaneously because we are currently allowed to replicate to just a single location.""It could include more of a backup and recovery."

"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.""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.""Doesn't back-up from KVM.""The pricing is much higher than what our clients expect it to be.""If a customer has a low budget, Veeam may be too expensive.""Pricing could be improved and I also think archiving could be improved.""The dashboard could be more intuitive."
