I currently use Veeam Backup for AWS to store backups offsite with Immutability and Encryption. Some of these features we took advantage of help our overall security posture and meet some of our compliance requirements. Our insurance company also has encouraged us to implement some of these features to reduce downtime if something were to happen. I'm confident in our Veeam and AWS setup that data is protected and accessible if I was need access.
- Ease of use
- Flexibility
- Provides clear insight into my protection status
- Consistent connection
- Setup is somewhat difficult but technical support was able to assist me from Veeam and AWS

Veeam Backup for AWS is simply ideal.
We use Veeam Backup for AWS for both physical
workstations and virtualized server backups. We have three physical
servers, and a couple of dozen workstations, and run three virtualized servers.
Backup and recovery are critical to our business, as it is for any business
running a database or having other critical data. Veaam Backup helps us
minimize our downtime as backup and restore operations run smoothly and
reliably when needed. With Veeam, any time we need to restore data it is
essentially available at our fingertips, so with a moment's notice we can
restore things at a file level, or even if there were a disaster scenario or if
we were the victims of a crypto lock or similar attack, Veeam Backup for AWS
will be there to get us back up and running in no time. It is a truly indispensable
product for our business. I would highly recommend Veeam Backup for AWS to anyone that is serious about data integrity and disaster recovery.
- Veeam is great for full volume or even just individual file restores.
- Veeam works perfectly in the background without using too many resources.
- Veeam support is great if you ever have issues.
- I have no suggestions for improvements.
Our organisation utilises Veeam backups for restoring VMs, fileshares and databases. We have found Veeam to be very reliable, easy to use via the graphical user interface, and it has reduced our recovery times massively. It also has great support for SQL Server application aware backups that allow us to provide transactionally consistent recovery points.
- Reliable
- Application Aware
- Data Protection
- GUI is slow and sometimes glitchy
- Support for Windows cluster shared volumes would be helpful
- The reports on backup history are very long and not easy to read

Backing up and recovering VMs, Veeam Backup & Replication to protect and restore individual files and applications for environments
- Backup
- Restore
- Recovery verification
- When creating a backup job with Veeam, you can create a daily backup, but it doesn't do it within that job. It does not give you the ability to also set the terms for monthly and/or weekly backups. It has to be a separate job.
- The licensing models, from a reseller's perspective, could be better.
- CDP also requires a lot of development, because there are a lot of restrictions now for CDP. There is a chance to improve CDP and make it much easier for the customers
