Chose Vinchin Backup & Recovery
The majority of the backup solutions we evaluated struggled to "get straight to the point"—that is, to provide, in a simple and intuitive way, everything you need in a backup platform and keep the most important features easily accessible. That is one of Vinchin's greatest …

It is well-suited for most environments, from Small and medium businesses to large enterprises. But its cost may be prohibitive for smaller businesses with a limited budget. While there are multiple licensing levels, there may be a use case for creating a level between the community edition and the Foundation.

As Vinchin has released newer versions, it has gradually expanded support for a wider range of ecosystems while introducing more advanced features. We first started using it with version 6, when there were still several areas that could be improved. Today, the platform has evolved to include features we don't even use, reflecting how much it has matured. In the past, I would say Vinchin was best suited for small and medium-sized businesses. Today, however, with capabilities such as resilient backup options and support for private cloud platforms like OpenStack, it has become much more enterprise-ready. Adding backup support for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Microsoft Azure would likely further strengthen that positioning.

The ease of use in creating jobs and adding clients enables our new and less skilled administrators to work efficiently, quickly, and accurately.
The same ease of use is essential for junior admins as well. Backups are quickly and accurately restored, allowing our networking team to bring clients back to production within expected times.
The ability to create a restore for testing and to remove it quickly has proven to be an excellent asset for our production and DB teams.

On occasion, the 'reason' for a failed backup can be a little hard to understand. It would be nice if it were a bit more straightforward.
I would love to run the platform natively on Linux, but I don't think it's an option.
Sometimes, locating the correct update file for the platform software can be a bit confusing. If they had an option to download the correct update file from within the console, that would take some of the guesswork out of it.

I really have no complaints about Veeam Backup & Replication. Their service has been excellent and the cost is minimal in comparison to other services I checked out. Implementation wasn't simple and the Veeam Support team was there to help each step of the way.

It is a very robust solution that has never failed. It also has perfect integration with Windows server volume shadow copies. The processing load is moved from the backup server to the backup proxy. Increased fault tolerance: you can store data on a separate machine, the backup repository. Can perform a bare metal restore.

1. Vinchin does the Job (Agent, Agentless) with flexible recovery point options, and restoration has all the features like entire VM, file level, BMR, Etc. 2. Instant Virtual machine is very useful as an immediate recovery option and migration as well 3. BMR is super easy from agent-based backup or agent-less

I give Veeam Data Platform a rating of 9 for availability because it consistently performs reliably in critical data protection and recovery tasks. The platform is designed to minimize downtime, ensuring that backup and recovery processes are accessible when needed.While there may be rare instances of maintenance or minor application errors, these do not significantly affect the overall reliability of the system. Veeam’s strong architecture and features like high availability configurations further enhance its performance, allowing us to trust it in crucial situations. Overall, it has proven to be a dependable solution that meets our organization's needs effectively.

Veeam does a good job with backing up our servers in a timely manner. We are still at the beginning of our Veeam use and are pleased with the speed at which we can access the system as well as the backups and restore points. Veeam is definitely superior to our previous backup system in terms of speed and accessibility

The support team has never asked me to jump through silly hoops or waste time on pointless exercises. They seem to truly have a handle on what may be wrong. In fact, when we were having trouble getting our license renewal setup (because of yet another license migration at Veeam) a support incident got us connected to the right people to get our renewal done in time.

I rated the in-person training an 8 because it was generally effective and provided a solid foundation for understanding the Veeam Data Platform. The instructors were knowledgeable and engaged, making the sessions interactive. However, I felt that some topics could have been covered in more depth, and additional hands-on exercises would have further reinforced the learning experience. Overall, it was a positive training session that adequately prepared attendees for using the product, but there's room for improvement.

I gave it a rating of 7 because, although the online training offered valuable content and covered the essential aspects of the Veeam Data Platform, it lacked interactivity and opportunities for direct engagement with instructors. This made it challenging to ask questions or delve deeper into specific topics. Additionally, some sections felt a bit rushed, which could hinder a comprehensive understanding of more complex features. Overall, while the training was useful, improvements in interactivity and pacing could elevate the experience significantly.

Plan the process and then work through your plan, i know this should go without saying but its easy to get sidetracked. You tend to want to just get up and running so you can have that sigh of relief, spend the time to talk to your business stakeholder to see what goals they are trying to accomplish and how that may impact your plans first.

I believe it's not possible to compare these three products, as none of them are as feature-rich as Veeam Data Platform. The addition of Proxmox-VE in version 12 was certainly a game-changer, as we were previously dependent on the VMware environment to access all the features that Veeam Data Platform offers.

Vinchin Backup isn't exactly comparable to these products because it offers a multitude of features that allow it to be integrated into any environment, even beyond the smallest single server. These features include the multitude of virtualization platforms it connects to for backup, features that almost no other competitor can offer.

In terms of scalability for our company, Veeam was able to cover our backup needs with ease. They have options for even more individualized backup if we were to need them; i.e. if a specific workstation needs its own independent backup. We have not used these resources yet, but I am confident they will be beneficial to our company in the near future.

Positive impact: it "saved our ass" on one occasion. In that particular scenario, we were hit with ransomware.
On another occasion, it provided a means of building a staging environment from our production and saved us a significant amount of time from having to build from scratch.

We have been using Vinchin for the last 3 years, and we have had no issues with VM backups. VM backups are taken for approximately 450 VMs using multiple schedules.
For MySQL, we are using the Community edition, where the native hot backup solution is not available. Using Vinchin, we can take hot backups at regular intervals, which have significantly reduced our RPO. Earlier, we used to take MYSQL backup using our own scripts only once a day, at night. After using Vinchin, now it's every 2hours.
Support is very prompt. Whenever an issue arises, we get support in the WhatsApp group created for our organization.
