Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."I am not a direct user of this product, but my technical guys tell me that they like the product, and it is easy to use. We don't have any issues with it."
"Most of the features that we can use with HPE products are directly integrated with the Veeam. This is very important for the customers to have only one pane of glass to manage the backups and also use the HPE products for the backups."
"Replication and restore object in Exchange boxes with possibility to select part of Microsoft directory."
"I like all the backup features in Veeam."
"It is cost-effective. A lot of times, people pick Veeam because of its price."
"The product is very simple in its design. We don't need it to perform complicated tasks."
"The solution is easy to install and very stable."
"Recovery of backup data is the most valuable feature."
"Cloud Connect's best features are its simplicity, flexibility, and constantly-expanding options."
"The administration and management integrate with multiple solutions, not just with one or two environments, even if they're not VMware products."
"While there are some complexities, Veeam tries to keep the product simple and offers a good knowledge base. It's quite structured, so you can easily take one subject and learn about it simply by reading through the documentation."
"The most valuable feature is the snapshot capability."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Cloud Connect is the server backups, such as the Microsoft Windows server. Additionally, the updates provide useful enterprise functionality."
"The best part about this solution is that it just works."
"The solution is already far more advanced than our customers require. It offers advanced scripting and automation pre-testing to support the custom library and custom tasks."
"A really good feature is backing up the emails of the company."
"I have used NetBackup. For heavy workloads or if I need consistent backup and restore, I prefer NetBackup over Veeam Backup Replication."
"Pricing can be improved."
"The cloud part of it can be improved. There should be an option for Veeam in your own cloud, as compared to the Veeam cloud offering that's currently there. The rest of it is easy."
"The one downside to Veeam is that they don't have a cloud product of their own."
"I think Veeam needs to improve the file installation process, as well as more technical things like snapping feature issues. Sometimes during backup, when it's taking the scan snaps on the ESXi, it started and didn't remove the snapshot from there, which consumed storage on the EXSi. It could be improved with more technical depth. The response time for Veeam's technical support could also be improved."
"The product is missing some commonsense features and tools for an enterprise backup recovery product,"
"The remote SQL server has had multiple sizing issues within the logs and SQL backup space and sharing with other database apps."
"It would be ideal if users could know that their data is backed up and have some security functionality where you can actually use the backup to spin up a new cluster and take it from there."
"The flexibility results in more administrative GUI. The GUI needs improvement."
"The solution needs to be more scalable. There should be no reason to set up Veeam Cloud Connect and have 10 servers in order to have a cloud backup. The initial setup could be easier."
"Pricing could be improved and I also think archiving could be improved."
"Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases."
"I think Veeam Cloud Connect could be more stable, scalable, and secure. I think better pricing is needed."
"We were interested in investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in VMware. VMware right now is one of the biggest solutions in the world, in terms of the IT environment. But for Cloud Connect it's not. I think they need the cloud version to reach more customers, to enable the cloud version to be used by more people."
"The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors. They could work to build something around that concept."
"The dashboard could be more intuitive."
