"The recovery options in Microsoft 365 are not adequate and it does not help to recover data from the recycle bin that is older than 90 days. The solution has made us more efficient and helps to recover data that is older than 90 days."
"The backup and recovery functionalities of the product are very useful."
"It is the only product in the market that offers platform backup."
"The most valuable features are the email backup and the SharePoint backup."
"The initial setup is super easy."
"It is the best product in the market for Office 365 backup, and our customers are satisfied with it."
"The most promising feature of the product is data security policies, which make it simpler to include compliance processes."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Backup Replication are ease of use, dashboards, and reporting."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup Replication is application awareness. Additionally, the solution is user-friendly and it has been working very well."
"The standout feature for us is instant recovery."
"The most valuable feature is the instant recovery."
"Instant recovery, ease of use, and integrations are some of the valuable features."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is a scalable solution."
"One of the most valuable features is the simplicity of the solution's administration."
"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 restoration could be faster."
"The component in the product that can be improved revolves around the area where the tool should focus on providing more of a custom touch to the policies."
"I would like to see improvements in the tool's initial seed. The initial seed of around 10 TB of SharePoint data took 45 days to complete."
"It is not a traditional restore process and it is somewhat limited in what we can do."
"For improvement, AvePoint can provide details on how the tool's backup scope works."
"It would be beneficial to have a more optimal Google Backup for larger environments."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Some customers choose other backup solutions because AvePoint is Office 365 and CRM backup system, but they have other backup needs for Azure and so on. Such customers often choose another backup solution instead of AvePoint."
"I don't see much room for improvement except that the price could be better."
"The initial setup of Veeam Backup Replication is straightforward. The process took approximately two days. The setup could be streamlined to take less time."
"Veeam doesn't have the reporting part quite right. Its data visualization isn't as slick as other solutions like Veritas. For example, in Veritas, you can see a calendar that shows you which days are backed up. Veeam lacks features like that."
"There are certain solutions, such as Rubrik and Cohesity, that are little by little, taking market share. Veeam needs to be more aggressive to keep their dominance in the space."
"It needs to support more applications. In terms of supported applications, Oracle SQL and Office 365 are supported, but I am not sure if it supports Linux-based applications. That's why I'm looking for an alternative. I am currently testing Commvault. The advantage of Commvault is that a lot of applications are supported with it. I am not sure if CIFS is currently supported. It would be nice to have this feature in case it is not already supported"
"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."
"They need to focus more on cloud backup."
"Near-synchronous, better RPO and RTO snapshot-based takes a lot of space and resources."
