Everbridge IT Alerting vs. Veeam ONE

Targeting people (or their SIM cards to be specific) in a specific area and warning them about a hazard in their neighbourhood is the intended use, and it executes that perfectly. In addition we have implemented the traveller alert where we can send messages to all Icelandic SIM cards present inside another Country (another Country code), and send them messages about f.ex. terrorist attack and provide guidelines about where they shoud seek assistance if needed. A slight minus here is that you can only address entire countries, where it might be useful to have next level of area codes.

Veeam One works great for monitoring virtual infrastructure. However, other dedicated server monitoring apps do better with monitoring the individual VMs. Where it stands out is its reporting functionality, which allows you to forecast growth and keep track of how you are using your resources. It is also great for companies without a big monitoring budget, as there is a pretty functional free version.

• Proactive Alerting - the product can provide email alerts to notify one of any issues in the environment.
• Capacity Planning and Forecasting - it has the ability to provide an analysis of the current environment as well as provide a report to forecast future capacity requirements.
• Monitoring and Reporting - the software can monitor you environment 24x7 with the ability to provide comprehensive reporting.

• The licensing is tricky to understand. You can have an enterprise BR license or a Veeam ONE license, and the split modules read from only one module where the license is actually loaded into it.
• Documentation could be a little better.
• It's not exactly pretty to look at. Themes and tweaks are pretty limited.

I would really like to have easier reporting. What warnings were issued, when, and received by how many, by operator or area etc..

The support team has been very supportive, but there is only so much they can do, and of course sometimes things take a bit too long for my impatience.

We rarely if ever call support, but overall Veeam is very responsive, quick to get a hold of, and knowledgeable in there help. Some companies get big like Veeam and their support drops off, but we haven't seen that with Veeam (but again, their products seem really solid and trouble free so we rarely need help).

I have reviewed quite a few at conferences, but none to the depth of installation and use.

Veeam ONE does not stack up well against Prometheus because Prometheus is must more flexibile and customizable. AppDynamics and Veeam ONE are similar in that they excel with certain but different aspects. Veeam ONE with backups and AppDynamics with application performance.

• The government has the duty to equip itself with a mechanism to warn its people. It has allocated that duty to us, and we have chosen Everbridge to provide us the tool for that duty. It is very well suited to fulfill that role.

• The most positive impact has been a centralized platform to manage all our vCenter Tags, which orchestrate all our BCDR solutions with Veeam.
• Response time for analyzing system performance when there are issues has greatly increased due to the simplicity of the software, plus we have been able to allow access to application developers and managers to view and asses their servers when they feel there are issues, without the need to contact the infrastructure team members.
