Carbonite Cloud-to-Cloud Backup vs. Veeam Backup for Azure

If you need to send information to someone and you don't want others to see in case the wrong person gets it, that you can encrypt it and just make sure the person has the password to open it. This program makes it very easy to send emails to others and inform people when you are away and when you will be available upon return.

For our purposes I can't particularly find any shortcomings of Veeam Backup for Azure. It has been working well for our needs for a few years now. Maybe for someone with a larger cloud footprint or more complex needs, or maybe someone who wants to be able to deploy and configure the appliance using infrastructure as code it may not be as practical.

• Reduce storage costs and minimizing the impact on network consuption.
• Veaam Backup for Azure provides application-aware backups for Microsoft SQL Server, ensuring that our data is backed up and available for recovery correctly.
• Replication: Veeam Backup for Azure helps us to replicate our workloads to another Azure region or on-premises environment for disaster recovery purposes and compliance needs.

• More vocabulary to choose from when needing a different word to complete a sentence.
• For example, when you point the arrow over Review that a list will appear for what is listed under that section as oppose to having to click on it.
• Have a button that you can click on to demonstration how to use something for example graphs.

Incentivized

• Documentation around service account permissions was a little sparse when we implemented it
• It's sometimes hard to get the reason behind a (rare) job failure without going into logs
• The UI around snapshots and backups could do with some clarity around the restore points that will be available

Plainly, the product just works. I don't have to babysit it.

It was so easy that you thought it wasn't working. Once you saw data and was able to recover it or do a restore with the product those beliefs in the system went to the roof. Once you get a product that does everything you want it to do, you will give it it's props.

Super slow, often corrupted data, Carbonite is such a better engine and architecture.

Backup Exec was a very clunky application and took forever to backup to and restore from. We would backup to SSD external hard drives from a flash array, but the process still took forever to finish. Sending our data to the Azure blob storage via Veeam is a faster and more secure process than saving to the external hard drives with Backup Exec.

• Helping busy staff members keep up with dates .
• The reminders are perfect so you will not miss out on a meeting.
• Being able to put the Team meeting on the calendar and all the person has to due to click the link to join the meeting. Fantastic!

• We have had fast recovery of documents when needed; sub 10 minutes from start of restore to complete and in the users hands
• Easily a value add for backing up files outside of the given Microsoft retention period; piece of mind
• Easy tool to use with minimal training required to use it and set up backups
• When you do change your cloud licensing it does require manual intervention to update backup data requirements. if the business makes changes then your backup person may not know to make these changes
