Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The most valuable feature by far is the Virtual Disaster Recovery. On top of that is the bare-metal recovery. The recovery options that we have are great. We have tested the Virtual Disaster Recovery and the bare-metal recovery in just about any scenario you can think of. We have even restored bare metal, a full server, to a laptop, and had full functionality. It's just insane how well it works and how simple it is. It does most of the work for you."
"It provides a single dashboard for all types of data protection, we monitor everything through a single dashboard. It simplifies everything overall. It allows us to see everything, whether passing or failing any issues, any problems through a single pane of glass that we don't have to click through or adjust as we go forward."
"It's extremely important that Cove provides cloud-based data protection with backup, disaster recovery, and archiving. That is a necessity for my insurance. As an IT company, my insurance would cost more if my backups were not offsite and off-network."
"It's their cloud, it's their storage. I don't have to buy a space on Amazon or Google's cloud and then use their software to push it. That works well for me. This way, I don't have to worry about another option or the opportunity that there might be a credential leak."
"One of the bigger features and advantages of the solution is that it is easy to integrate with my RMM which is also N-able."
"For starters, this is one of few databases that allow us to backup MySQL databases, most others only support Microsoft SQL. This solution also has a very user-friendly interface accessed through a web browser. Additionally, backups can be easily configured through N-able Backup."
"The product is simple to use and manage. The customers have access to verify the backups."
"What I like the most about it's the ease of use and the reliability that it has when copying information to the cloud."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It was very easy. Deployment only took about one hour with configuration and everything considered."
"I like working on the Azure platform."
"It is good and easy to use for backing up physical servers. It is working fine, and it is stable and scalable."
"It is a stable solution."
"The solution is very affordable for small businesses."
"Veeam helps to create a stable environment with virtual servers."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows are the backups, ease of use, and report manager."
"A feature I'd like to see would be a more customizable admin console."
"A disaster recovery console would be an improvement for the product."
"Having the licensing available for partners to be able to take advantage of testing without paying would make a big difference."
"The one thing they don't are Linux servers, it's Windows only. I understand that directive. I have another product that I use for our Linux servers and stuff, but it would be nice if they had that flexibility on the Linux side. I understand the development and the world is geared towards Windows in 365, I know that's where the clienteles are and the business and the money is."
"The recovery side, the restore side, could be a little more optimized."
"An area for improvement that would really work out well would be if there were a little bit more of an elegant handshake relationship between SolarWinds RMM and the PCs that are being backed up, to advise regarding "up" status... Since RMM is an agent that feeds back that a machine is alive and on, I don't see any reason why they can't either tap into that one feature or build the same exact polling within the backup agent, to update right away and say the system is online or offline."
"A better default view on my dashboard would be great. There is a lot of useless information there that it pulls up. They could present the dashboard slightly better, in terms of the extra information after the first five columns. The first five columns are awesome. After that, I don't care about the rest, and there are another seven things after that."
"We would like to have better reporting."
"Maybe in the future, they could do something better with the user interface and the performance, but so far it's a really good, efficient solution."
"If they could let you can do replication to physical servers - a backup from physical servers and a replication to physical servers - that will be better."
"I would like to have a more automated installation process."
"We can't use tape for primary storage on Veeam."
"A lower price would always be beneficial."
"The stability of this solution needs to be improved."
"I would like there to be more integration with other platforms."
"We need some sort of security for backups and archives."
