Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The initial setup was straightforward. It's not complicated. It takes around half an hour to implement, but it depends on the performance of the server that you are installing the backup software on."
"The flexibility and user-friendliness of Veeam make it very IT operations-friendly."
"It's stable and reliable."
"Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward. The deployment is easy because Veeam is compatible with all our VMware services and VMs. Veeam Backup and Veeam ONE are integrated into vCenter or vSphere site deployments, so we don't need to deploy each server one by one."
"The most valuable feature is the instant restore option."
"What I found most valuable in Veeam Agent for Linux is that it can unify machines and even simplify management."
"I like the incremental backups and their failover."
"The Veeam Backup and Replication Suite is very user-friendly."
"We are able to store it on various cloud providers such as Amazon S3, Rocket, Azure, and IBM Cloud. It can also do on-premise integration, and we are able to use storage from on-premise. We are also able to recover data. It is a really good and intuitive solution. Veeam has developed a fantastic product. I've never seen anything that I don't like about Veeam. It looks like a very complete solution. It is really mature, simple to use, and quite interrogative. It also has APIs for writing scripts."
"Veeam Backup gives you the option to backup your data from the cloud to on-premises."
"I believe the solution is very scalable. We can continuously add mailboxes and sites."
"Backup and replication are the most valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with our Teams environment."
"Veeam makes modular solutions, so you can install Veeam Backup for Office 365 and Veeam Backup and Replication in one single server. You can do an all in one installation, and roll it out."
"The solution is easy to use. It's very simple and clients find it very easy to find all objects and things they need with the Veeam Explorer."
"The solution is also easy to manage and work with."
"It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform."
"They could be more customer-friendly."
"It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network."
"In new releases, I hope they can support Oracle cloud."
"The integration needs improvement."
"There is a compatibility issue with HCI."
"There isn't much to improve. They just need to follow the trend or the development of other Linux products. Follow in terms of making the product compatible with new versions of Linux. They just need to include as many versions for Linux as possible."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
"The solution announced many features two years ago, and they still have not happened, so I would hope that the next release has these ready to go."
"While there really is nothing wrong with the product some small improvements in the interface could make it even easier to use."
"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem."
"The capacity storage is a challenge everywhere in the backup industry. The general feedback people are coming back to about this is that there is no deduplication based on it."
"When using Veeam Backup for Office 365 when there is a server that's running, I have to have a hard drive installed on it. For example, if I want to use another storage solution, I can't incorporate it very well. If I want to use SMB or other protocols I cannot use them with the Veeam Backup for Office 365. They have the support in the other Veeam Backup and Restore solutions, but it doesn't support it in this solution. Hopefully, in the future, they figured it out."
"If you use a device to back up with compression and duplication, the solution doesn't work."
"As with all things, the solution can be improved by reducing the cost."
"We have found that there is a limitation in this solution where it only takes the backup of users who are using Office 365 Enterprise email IDs. We have many users in management and approximately 50 other users who are using Office 365 of which Veeam is able to capture the backup. However, for the other users who are on the local email server at that time, the solution is not able to capture the backup."
