Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The restoration and infrastructure is extremely reliable."
"Very flexible, all-in-one solution."
"It's the most easy-to-use backup replication that I have used so far."
"Veeam's file monitoring capabilities are strong and consistent."
"I like all of Veeam's features, but the most important ones are the tape backups and replication. Those are the two options available for us, and it's enough for our needs."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is definitely very useful and simple to learn, and the restoring processes are very straightforward, making it a very solid product."
"Very reliable and easy to use."
"The initial setup was not overly complex."
"For virtualization it's perfect."
"We would like to have the opportunity to omit data from being backed up. For example, we have three virtual machines, each with three disks. When running the backup, it will automatically take each disk rather than allowing us to select what data we want backed."
"The Veeam backup application interface is application-based and not web-based."
"I would like them to move back to host licensing."
"They need to improve their technical side."
"Even though the speed has improved over the years, I think that there are some instances where it still takes a while."
"The implementation of the features can be improved. Currently, there is no segregation of duty. Normally, any backup software or client service software is implemented in a way where one person is responsible for the implementation of the server, and one is responsible for the client, but Veeam Backup & Replication is not implemented in that way. Therefore, restores don't work like that. The backup guys have to do the restores, which is not a good thing. Its pricing should also be improved. It is quite expensive."
"The ability to do more backups should be addressed."
"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."
"Pricing can be improved."
