Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The solution is very affordable for small businesses."
"It's straightforward to set up."
"The solution is useful for taking backups for end-user laptops and end-user workstations where data is involved."
"The most valuable features are backup and restore. This solution is also easy to use."
"I like working on the Azure platform."
"If you have windows machine at home and you'd like a backup, you can always download their free edition and plug in an external hard disk, and do a full backup of your laptop."
"To do the actual backup configuration is also not too bad."
"I love Veeam because it is very easy to work with."
"It has got all the features. You can restore a mailbox based on an email or a calendar or based on all the emails. A user can also get access to restore the mailbox."
"The product offers good stability."
"The installation process is very easy."
"The solution provides good backup services for Microsoft 365."
"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."
"Technical support in Veeam is good."
"The support offered by both Veeam and our third party supplier is excellent."
"Veaam technical support, from my perspective, is one of the best technical support I've ever engaged with."
"The support could be improved a lot, as it is currently non-existent."
"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."
"The solution could use some updates to minor details omitted from current reporting."
"We can't use tape for primary storage on Veeam."
"Updating and configuration can sometimes be a little bit of a hassel, but once you know the product better it is easy to use."
"The predictability of the solution needs improvement. Sometimes, if it's doing something at the back end, it may go slow. Today, the backup completion took four hours, but sometimes it can do the backup in 30 minutes or an hour. With solutions like NetBackup, I can predict to a much higher degree of certainty how long something will take to complete."
"With the currency exchange, the solution ends up being quite expensive."
"There are not many options available for AIX backup. They provide the agent for AIX, but it could be more mature."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by reducing the time it takes for backups. I have mentioned this to Veeam and hopefully, in the next version, it will be a faster backup."
"The solution could improve by having the ability to back up without an agent installed on the system."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by adding more features with Microsoft teams. We have many files that we are working on with Microsoft teams and there should be more integration and features."
"Technical support could be improved."
"It needs to be able to integrate with other emailing systems, like Linux."
"When you add a new site for backup, it gives you a notice that there is a new site, but the way you select that and configure that could be slightly better. It works, but it is not always very clear. For example, for the URL, you need to hover over the title or the name of the site. You should see it immediately on the screen. It should have a better user interface for selecting what you want to back up so that you get a more clear overview of the sites that are there and the ones that you want to combine in a backup. Its user interface should be more user-friendly. It has a lot of scrolling and doesn't give you a complete overview when needed. That's the main thing why it is not very user-friendly. It should have a better user interface."
"The customer service and support response time can be improved."
"Veeam is quite expensive."
