Veeam Backup for Azure is a much easier product to setup and configure vs other options we've used in the past, the initial install and setup is very straight forward and the interface to manage on-going backups and settings isn't confusing either.

Veeam allows much more flexibility in scheduling backup jobs, It also allows you to copy backups to an on prem server or another cloud if you wanted to, it also allowed you to restore Azure VMs on premise or to another cloud.

The other products we considered had higher overall costs and appeared to offer less functionality/customisation. We had also experienced reliability issues with one of the other products so did not have confidence it would provide a suitable backup and DR solution.

It is much faster, easier to use, has multiple scale out repositories that are immutable. Azure Backup works but it is slow when processing backups, and restoring backups. It is not flexible compared to Veeam.

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.

Cons
Veeam Software
  • 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

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.

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.

Return on Investment
Veeam Software
  • 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
