We performed a comparison between Veeam ONE and VMware vSphere based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, IBM, Nutanix and others in Virtualization Management Tools."I think Veeam ONE is a good product to supervise and monitor infrastructure and for backup purposes."
"As a manager, I find Veeam One's reporting service to be very helpful."
"The most valuable features of Veeam ONE are the backup reports, such as the status of the storage."
"One valuable feature of Veeam ONE for backup management is its dashboard, which offers a comprehensive view of backups and other essential data."
"The tool is a stable backup solution."
"Veeam ONE is the best and the most mature solution for hypervisors and physical machines."
"The solution is really easy and straightforward to use."
"For me, the most important feature is alerting."
"The most valuable feature is vSAN, as it reduces the cost of SAN storage and maintenance."
"The pricing of the product is reasonable."
"For me, the most valuable feature would be the EVC, but EVC has been changed to be per-VM which makes it possible for us to migrate the VMs to cloud and not take into account what hardware they're running on. Also, a big improvement from the previous version is that I'm now able to schedule backup for the VCSA. That is, in my opinion, a huge improvement. The last thing that I think is really great is, I'm not able to boot the OS and not the entire server. That's going to save me a lot of time."
"The main benefit of the version 6.7 is that it makes end-users able to use the interface much more effectively. They don't have to install a client on their machine, they can do it from their phone, their laptop, their tablet, any OS, anytime. It's a better experience for the end-user."
"We have seen an improvement in uptime. The whole hardware lifecycle process is easier."
"I have found the Storage vMotion feature to be the most valuable."
"It has allowed us to be more resilient to infrastructure and hardware failure, reduced hardware costs, and decreased recovery time from failures."
"We use the solution's vMotion feature to migrate VMs from one host to another across different environments and data centers."
"The user experience can be better, as it is one of the areas with shortcomings in the product."
"Backup management features are crucial for ensuring the reliability and automation of backup processes."
"The reports are basic and not customizable, making it challenging to get detailed insights."
"I think Veeam ONE should be included in the base product instead of as an add-on because customers tend to look for simple solutions that are integrated."
"Perhaps the interface could be improved, though it has always been fine for me."
"In future releases, I would like to see the solution provide auto resolution and auto relocation of resources."
"There is a lot of information, so maybe the dashboards could consolidate it."
"If you don't have technical knowledge about these services, monitoring the virtual machines is hard."
"The initial setup could be better. It manages all the setups, but it's not very straightforward, and it takes time."
"The price is a big issue for us because the market is very competitive in our country, so we can't really push our VMware vSphere products because the customers will prefer to use something cheaper."
"Not having to buy something from a third-party to scan the actual hardware components, like the hard drives and the port containers and fan speeds; not having to bolt something on and go through another vendor, would be helpful."
"They can lower the price of its license."
"They need to stop pushing code out so fast."
"The performance of the solution could be better and there could be an extra level of security."
"I would like them to move into having a containerized application to manage the vCenter."
"I met with the lead solutions architect for vSphere, and one of the things that I really kind of sat him down on was, "What's the deal between these Custom Attributes and these Tags? What are you trying to do with that?" He said, "So here's the deal. I know that they're halfway done and we have a vision of where they're all going, but we'll get it there." That that would be a great ability, to keep all that metadata about your virtual machines inside the solution and staying with the machines."
