Veeam Backup & Replication Reviews

The solution can be used to backup databases. For example, from Windows, Linux, and Oracle. It is sometimes used by government organizations for email backup. 

The solution is easy to use and have good performance.

The data duplication should be improved.

I have been using the solution for a long time.

I have found the solution to be stable.

The solution is scalable.

The technical support has not been good in my experience. They need to have faster and more reliable support for this solution.

The installation was straightforward for me since I have done it before. It might not be for first time users. The time for the installation all depends on the environment.

We have one technician for the maintenance and deployment.

There is a license required for this solution and the price is a bit expensive but it depends on the environment that you have on how much it will cost.

I rate Veeam Backup Replication a seven out of ten.

I have used all flavors of backup solutions since early 1990s, this is by far the most advanced yet and easiest product to use.

It was straightforward. Basically, it was start, next, then finish.

It can be costly if the wrong license type is chosen. It is important to know what is needed before ordering.

Use a skilled consultant for the initial setup, then let him/her teach you for a day and you are set.

Application Aware simplifies the backup of applications that are deployed as virtual machines. Treating VMs as VMs. Virtual lab is also another useful feature for verifying backups with SureBackup and also allowing us to deploy test environments for test/dev.

It simplifies the backup process by allowing applications that are virtualized to be treated as virtual machines. Veeam's virtual labs actually takes into account all the required dependencies of testing application servers with ease. Not all solutions have this feature.

There should be additional support for guest base backups.

I have been using this solution for more than 5+ years. I have also looked at and did competitive analysis among all the data protection solutions that are out there. Veeam is very simple and intuitive.

Nope. The solution is very simple and intuitive.

There was no stability issues with Veeam that I had encountered.

I have not encountered any issues with scalability with Veeam.

The level of customer service has actually improved over the years. Rather than a level 1 support who has no idea how to troubleshoot. It seems that the level of support is more knowledgeable these days.

I would rate it as a 4 (with 5 being the highest).

Very straightforward and intuitive for someone who has been in the data protection industry for many years.

In-house because it is very simple and intuitive.

Excellent, their support is fast and efficient.

Backup Exec, I was looking for something designed for Virtual Machines.

In VMWare it's really fast. For Hyper V it took some tooling around.

In-House.

I didn't measure it but it saves me tons of time and no data loss so it has likely paid for itself many times over.

Unitrends

Do it, it's a great product and is easy to use.

We use this product for backing up on-premises virtual servers. We have virtual servers at our two sites that we back up, and we also replicate them between each other.

Compared to other products, Veeam has a lot of features for the price.

I would like to see better features for exporting to cloud-based repositories.

Having reduced pricing for smaller businesses would be helpful.

We have been using Veeam Backup & Replication for approximately 10 years.

This product is very stable.

There are two of us, myself and my colleague, who use this solution in our company.

I have been in contact with technical support and they are very good.

I find the installation fairly easy, although I've been working with it for quite a while.

This product is not cheap, but it's well worth the cost.

I am looking forward to a new feature that is coming out in version 11 that allows you to lock your backups in a Linux backup repository. This will stop ransomware from destroying your backups.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Backup and replication.

Great RPO and RTO.

Replication.

Cross-hypervisor replication.

We use it for backup and recovery.

It is a powerful software for communicating with the storage and for redundancy.

Its price is higher than other solutions and can be improved. They can also change the version of the software more often.

I have been using this solution for five years.

It has very good stability. It doesn't have any glitches, and it is very stable so far.

It is very scalable. You need more licensing to scale it. 

We have five users of this solution in our company.

I would rate them a ten out of ten.

The initial setup was easy. The deployment took two and a half hours.

It is more expensive than other solutions.

Feature-wise, it is a good solution. You can install the free version of this solution to try it out. This free version is valid for 13 days.

I would rate Veeam Backup & Replication an eight out of ten.

• Simple VM backup & restore management console
• Works with both industry standard hypervisors, VMware & Hyper-V
• Fast and easy implementation

It provides simple DR operation & management for our heterogeneous virtualisation platform.

Besides Wintel environments, it would be good to have DR/HA for Unix/Linux platforms.

I have been using it for 1½ years.

We have not had any issues with deployment, stability, or scalability.

Customer service is awesome.

Initial setup was straightforward because it only provides DR.

Project implementation was via a vendor team.

We evaluated Availl software, because of their Wide Area File System technology.
