We performed a comparison between Bareos and Veeam Backup & Replication based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of the solution is the ease of installation it provides its users."
"The main benefit of the product is its backup feature."
"I can't think of any improvements yet for Veeam because they are very good. It integrates very well with Microsoft applications. It is very easy to integrate. Micro Focus can also integrate but it's more complex. You have to know the product very well to be able to integrate. While Veeam, it's very user-friendly. You don't need to have certifications or anything to work on Veeam."
"The backup and replication capabilities are quite good."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"With Replication, Veeam allows us to have a duplicated VM on standby."
"Simple and stable."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to restore the VMs into a test environment."
"The WAN accelerator feature has been the most valuable for me. That feature reduced the time needed to complete the task from 25 days to less than a week! This is compared with the original tools used: ntbackup, robocopy and Windows Server Backup."
"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."
"The virtual machine backup is an area with shortcomings that need improvement."
"The tool is not user-friendly."
"The deduplication feature could be improved by changing to global deduplication."
"In the future, I would like to see better support for direct backup to tape."
"Some of the best practice documentation could be improved."
"The direct SAN backup integration can be perfected by improving the snapshot removal mechanism and process from the storage volumes."
"The interface and cluster environments could be improved in the future as presently they are using agent interface instead of user interface. Also, the backup for the Oracle WAC environment can be improved."
"The only improvement I could think of is it could be cheaper—cheaper is always good. Sometimes the product is just finished. Cheaper is always nice for the customer, but the company needs to benefit so that they can keep maintaining the product. New Windows versions, etc., always take some work. At the moment, I wouldn't switch to another solution because of the money."
"Veeam currently lacks features for backing up to network-attached storage. Veeam Backup & Replication agents do not support S3 storage. Only Veeam Backup & Replication server supports S3 storage."
"I like the Acronis backup solutions on the block-based part of backups or snapshots. That's a nice functionality that Veeam doesn't have."
