Likelihood to Recommend Our company was originally with VaultLogix which was taken over by LiveVault. The transition to the new product was not as smooth as expected and presented us with issues especially with a restore. Restore and what files needed to be included in the backup policy were not communicated to us correctly and it was not until a customer's server failed that we found out we couldn't do a restore because we were missing files that were needed for a complete restore.
I don't believe it works very well for backups of virtual servers. Installation of the product is user-friendly.

Read full review Pros Easy to install the client piece. Easy to setup the backup policies. Data encryption and security. Read full review The program installation is straight forward and uncomplicated. Once running it does not put a drain on system resources. After the initial backup subsequent backups are quick. It does what it is deigned to do and they have kept it simple for a reason. Read full review Cons It does not play very well with virtual servers. Support is not always responsive. Issues with failed backups have cost our company time and money. Read full review The reporting could use some work. If you have a client who has some serious audit controls in place, you may find yourself creating the report versus depending on the system do that piece for you. My complaint would be with the notification emails. They are not configurable and come out regardless of whether a backup set completed or is still running. The scheduling is a little clunky. It would be much nicer if the backup could be "continuous" anytime it's connected to the Internet (similar to Carbonite). Read full review Usability Veeam is very easy to use once fully on-boarded and trained. Part of the reason we can respond to a critical situation swiftly is that it is so easy to use. We did take 2 years to be fully comfortable with the product as we tested it with others, but once we committed to Veeam, there was no question about it.
Read full review Support Rating At the moment I cannot say anything bad about the overall provided services. It's holding me back to put the mark even higher as other cloud solutions have their advantages as well, so I can't rate this one higher than competitor ones. However the experience is really positive to the moment and it has delivered always.
Read full review Alternatives Considered LiveVault is the only product we have used. The reason is that we chose it initially was the fact you can restore individual files. Also that the data is transferred offsite to a secure data center and data is backed up again, providing a second offsite copy.
Read full review Veeam BLOWS AWAY Veritas in terms of reliability, recoverability, and Especially PRICE! Veritas is literally thousands of dollar more than comparable Veeam Software. Veritas's support is virtually non-existent. I believe the only reason Veritas is even still in business is because of their reputation as the ONLY backup software a decade or more ago. If you use Veritas, I HIGHLY recommend throwing it away and trying out Veeam - You will NOT go back to Veritas!
Read full review Return on Investment LiveVault has initially cost us more labor time than we anticipated for our IT staff. Installing cloud backup has given us a piece of mind that our data and our customer's data is safe. Read full review We solved a problem where we needed a backup for some remote clients and paying the cost for local backup was not feasible. allows us to put a solid backup and recovery solution in a client with very little monthly cost. Business backup and recovery, disaster recovery, hybrid data protection (onsite and cloud), server and workstation backup. Read full review ScreenShots Veeam on IBM Cloud Screenshots
