"The Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows is easy to use and performing a recovery is easy to do."
"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."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"This is a good product with a simple environment."
"Technical support is good. They're very responsive. It depends on the timezone responding, but I usually get a response within three hours of creating a ticket."
"Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows's most useful features is the ease of use and user-friendly."
"The solution is useful for taking backups for end-user laptops and end-user workstations where data is involved."
"The interface of this solution is quite good."
"They should eliminate the tape-out function from the solution."
"The solution lacks instant recovery."
"If you are doing an AIX backup then you have to use the CLI because it doesn't appear on the console, the way that Windows and Linux jobs do."
"A feature I would like to see is universal restore. At the moment, restoration can only be smooth on the same hardware. Let's say you have a server and you back it up with Veeam Agent, in case it fails or crashes. If you later buy a new server because the same one isn't available on the market anymore, there's a high chance that Windows will not boot up if you restore from the Veeam backup because the hardware is now different. Acronis has the universal restore feature, so it will work with generic drivers and you can restore Windows in any dissimilar hardware. As far as I know, Veeam doesn't have this feature yet."
"Some customers have Oracle databases and Veeam does support back up of Oracle databases."
"The backups can go slow."
"The compression ratio and application ratio could still be improved in this solution. Reporting could also be improved, for better monitoring."
"The solution could use some updates to minor details omitted from current reporting."
"An area that this solution could be improved would be with the licensing."
