Veeam Agent for Linux [EOL] Pros review quotes

The really amazing feature about Veeam Agent is that when you're using the central deployment model, you can actually use the instant VM recovery feature, which is really a pain point that I find some days.

The Veeam Backup and Replication Suite is very user-friendly.

The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine.

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.

It's most compatible with VMware. It can restore single files instead of having to restore the whole machine, once again leading to savings for the company.

The most valuable feature of the solution is its integration with Veeam Backup & Replication console.
 

Veeam Agent for Linux [EOL] Cons review quotes

It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side. For example, their agent for Windows not only can back up the Windows machine, but it can also back up Active Directory for granular restore, SQL servers, Exchange, Oracle, SharePoint, etc. When it comes to Linux, only Oracle databases are supported. There are workarounds, though.

In new releases, I hope they can support Oracle cloud.

It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network.

It could use deduplication features.

In terms of the physical environment, I'd like them to integrate it with other kinds of solutions. We don't just work with Microsoft or Linux, but other kinds of infrastructure data as well.

Technical support could be improved.

One problem in Veeam Agent for Linux is that you can't use your license for all your machines because you don't have a virtual machine, so if you're going to add machines and scale, you'd need to pay extra.
FM

It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform.
AA

Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible.
JS

More Linux systems should be made compatible with the solution.
