Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Nutanix can converge legacy-style rack mount servers, so it is highly scalable.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten.""Nutanix has its own backup system known as HYCU, as well as its own virtual server.""We use this solution as an integrated backup solution and it is integrated from the backup provider to the Nutanix solution.""We find the ease of use valuable.""I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the solution."

More Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup Pros →

"The solution is very scalable. Whenever we grew, it was just a matter of adding new licenses, so it's easy to grow.""This is a very flexible product, which allows you to back up not only the physical environment but also the cloud environment.""The beauty of the solution is that you can rely on it. It offers a quick recovery time when it's backing up items. The way it recovers data is excellent.""For us, the main two features that we appreciate in this application are backup and restore. They are the main purposes for which we are using this application.""It gives us the ability to locate and restore critical files which users may have intentionally or unknowing deleted a while ago.""Veritas is good for small environments.""Synthetic backup is valuable. It gives you the possibility to do a synthesized backup, which means that it combines a full backup and incremental backup data and gives it to you in one stream. So, you don't have to restore the full backup and then later go and restore the incremental backup. You can do that in one go.""We are satisfied with the stability of the product."

Cons
"I would like to see the multi-cloud improve.""This solution could be improved with regards to the hosts that integrate with the platform itself. Each of the hosts integrated with the storage and networking only provide one instance of a backup.""Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient.""The solution's setup process should be simplified.""The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""It could be cheaper."

More Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup Cons →

"Whenever a job fails, it would be a great improvement to be able to resume the job from that feature. Suppose a job was started this morning and that it is going on while there are interruptions like network issues, server restart issues, server connectivity issues, services stopping, etc. For some reason, let's assume that the job failed or that it was mistakenly canceled by another person. It will be a great improvement if that failed job can be continued.""Its scalability should be improved.""Veritas Backup Exec should improve by having a user portal that customers can use.""A web console would be great because nowadays a lot of products are web-based and you can access the console from various environments. So I would recommend bringing this feature in the next solution.""I have experienced some errors, such as failures, but there have not been very many.""Veritas Backup Exec's dashboard feature could be enhanced.""Something within the software itself isn't quite right. There may be a bug or glitch. It will work fine for weeks and then all of a sudden it just tanks.""It is currently missing the dynamic backup feature for virtual machines, which is available in NetWorker. I can create politics in NetWorker to add virtual machines with specific tags, but I cannot do this in Backup Exec, which is a minus point for me. Currently, a user has to send a request to the Backup administrator to add a machine to the backup, but I should be able to create rules to automatically add a new machine to the backup. This kind of functionality is very important in current times, especially when we are using cloud solutions. I should be able to create more than one stream in a policy and specify how many streams I want to run in parallel in one policy. Currently, I have to manually create more policies to backup more than one virtual machine at the same time. Their support can also be improved in terms of response time."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by Veritas Backup Exec users.

    An IT Network Analyst at a manufacturing company says, “The backup potential of the solution is very good. It's protected us in the past very well and allowed us to get up and running after an attack with minimal loss. As far as if we need to restore a file, the solution absolutely has improved the way our organization functions. It saves us a lot of time. We're backing up all of our servers with it.”

    PeerSpot user Masoud G., Senior Network Administrator at MapnaBE, mentions, “I prefer to use a tape library and Veritas Backup Exec is fully compatible with different tape libraries. So I prefer this software. It also has easy user and file recovery.”

    Kayode O., Chief Technology Officer at a tech company, explains, “This solution creates a differential backup to reduce storage requirements. This solution is not complex and you do not have to be too technical to use it. Veritas offers granular restore, which is an option that many other solutions do not have. It allows you to restore, for example, a single SharePoint document, rather than an entire site.”

    Rowland G., Product Brand Manager at Epsidon Technology Distribution, states, “The one thing for the last 12 months which has been very good for Veritas was the instance-based license. This means that you're able to license per instance, not only per physical server. And also, the incremental backup which they introduced for virtual servers, where it makes it much quicker to restore, it just automatically is able to mount it back to the original backup. This makes it much quicker when you're doing the restore.”
