It is no more and no less, just like i have calculeted. No surprise when you understand the "workloand system" (not easy...).
Needs Assesment
The save system is the same that others backup software (except the worload system...) so it is more the user interface witch will give you problem than fonctionality. You need to learn a little to find what you want.

- Our old backup solution was a file level recovery solution only. With no way of recovering entire VMs without manually reinstalling the OS with the same name as the destroyed VM, reinstalling the applications, then using the FLR to overwrite the configs. This was a disaster waiting to happen on …

Reviews
(1-25 of 372)Veeam Data Platform works better than DPM.
- Integrates well with 3rd party cloud backups particularly Wasabi which is very cost effective.
- Allows you to send secondary backups to multiple locations like other disk, cloud, etc.
- Sends good reporting emails when there is a failure.
- Their tech support has been much more helpful and knowledgeable than Microsoft's was for DPM.
- It could always be cheaper.
Good Product at a Great Price
- Backups
- Archives
- Resource Monitoring
- Notifications
- SQL Table recovery -- you are not able to restore a single table if it is above a certain size. Restoring a whole (large) database is very cumbersome.
- Some notifications are less important and could probably be ignored. More notification configurations would be helpful here.
- There is a slight learning curve to the interface/UI for Backups. It is fine once you learn it but confusing at first.
VEEAM Data Platform is better than it's competitors
- Restores to virtual machine fairly quickly.
- It sends us malware reports.
- Talking to support has not been extremely helpful. Some technicians are not sure of how to navigate our issues.
Veeam - amazing product!
- Backups
- Managing those backups/scheduled tasks
- Restoring from backups
- Running backups live from those backups
- Software support is great; the few times we've ever needed them they've pulled through
- A change to the interface for mounting then recovering individual files or folders feels clunky but it's the only complaint about the software. It works, the process just isn't as smooth as I'd like.
- An inline product update from an update button rather than going to the Veeam page to download a new setup file would be pretty slick, not a deal breaker by any means though
- It would be pretty neat to have an inline tech support data upload, provide a ticket number and have the support upload go directly to Veeam rather than taking that archive file and uploading it to the ticket via the web portal
Happy with Veeam Data Platform
- Unified backup solution using one console.
- Many different restore options.
- Many different backup options.
- Console takes some getting used to.
- SOBR is somewhat complex to set up.
- Backups take a fair bit of time, but this might be expected.
Veeam Data Platform Review
- Ease of recovery with file level restores.
- Application aware backups for Exchange and SQL servers.
- Ability to set backup windows and schedule backups based on other backups finishing.
- Slightly confusing license management.
- Sometimes has delays when loading file level backups.
- No ability to update from within the software.
Veeam Data and Backup.
- Automation.
- Ease of use.
- Rolling back old files.
- Make restores more easier to navigate.
- Download/Support Portal could be more user friendly.
The best backup solution !
- online backup
- hot restore point
- ransomware check
- immuable backup
- compression
- deduplication
PHP Veeam review.
- Highly configurable
- Dependable
- Backups
- UI update interval (like charts, copy speed update) is a bit slow.
- Starting backups takes a while, doesn't really explain what it's doing.
- Backups fail/warn for a lot of misc reasons, so a lot of time is spent diagnosing these (like the dreaded "Failed to index guest file system. VSSControl: Index failed").
Discovery of Veeam community edition.
The free lifetime version is a great opportunity to test it for company with low I.T. budget.
The backup copy functionality is very useful.
The backup explorer is easy to use to restore quickly a simple file.
- The free community version
- Backup hyper-V
- Compress backup
- Backup copy fonction.
- adding a group of usb disk easier
- To have the possibility to back up VmWare workstation player like a Hyper-V!!
- Have an option to buy Veeam definitely not at month.
A good back up software with huge documentation!
Not easy to use the first time without help.
The free community edition, very usefull.
Bad point:
No lifetime licence...
The data limitation when you backup a nas... no comment -_-
No backup up of a wmware workstation player environnement.
Veeam Backup & Replication - A review from an Education perspective
We also link in our backups with Veeam Cloud Connect, for secure, off-site backup, as part of our backup procedure.
- Provides a comprehensive, yet easy to navigate user interface.
- Lowers workload with automated backup scheduling.
- Easy integration with Veeam Cloud Connect for secure, off-site backup.
Whilst it's slightly more expensive than some of the other backup competitors, it's not the most expensive & I feel you really do get your moneys worth.
Especially with the flexibility of the various add-ons you can integrate with it as a platform.
Keep calm and use Veeam to win
- Restoring files from inside Linux VM from backup
- Replication with low bandwidth
- Make backup immutable for all NAS storage (Synology for example)
- Support for PROXMOX Hypervsior
Can you afford not to use Veeam?
- Immutable backups to protect against ransomware
- Easily integrate jobs that create copies of your data offsite or in the cloud
- Explore backed up files from the image
- Test OS level backups straight from the backup image
- I honestly can't think of anything
Veeam Backup: best for virtual infrastructure.
- Application-based restores are great & quick.
- I like the idea of having several states of backups on different devices.
- Copying existing backups to different types of media without touching the actual infrastructure is great.
- Creating different types of jobs sometimes gives you a headache.
- The way of creating a retention policy is very hard to understand at the beginning.
Primarily I'm leveraging it to fill the gaps in our backup systems; previously there was another platform in place, but it was long since defunct by the time I was hired, plus our current VM backup system is going away at the start of the next year.
Ultimately, once the VMs are transitioned, I want to use the redundant server to round out our DR setup.
- File-level restore is quick, reliable, and much simpler than other platforms I've used
- Replication is extremely simple to configure and test
- Agent setup for user endpoints and subsequent backup storage is incredibly simple
- Cloud repository configuration is extremely straightforward and well-documented
- My main gripe with Veeam Data Platform was resolved with the release of 12, which was cloud backup repository addition being extremely restricted in 11
Veeam is the standard for backup and replication.
- backups / snapshots
- replication
- cloud DR
- instant recovery, they can do it faster.
- more friendly GUI
- provide training
- Backups of virtualized infrastructure.
- Creating replication of backups between datacenters.
- Creating immutable backups for data protection.
- Incorporating in physical server backups alongside virtualized server backups.
- Haven't been a fan of recent licensing model changes
Veeam is great
- Reliable backups
- Immutable backups
- Various backup destinations
- Support could stand to improve by a bit. The level of support has seemingly lessened over the years I've been using it.
- It needs to be able to report backup repository statistics better when XFS and ReFS are in use.
- It could be a little better about cleaning up after itself (old logs, etc.).
A reliable, hardy backup product
- Backup replication
- Site failover
- File and folder recovery
- Console UI
Safe Data!
- Intuitive interface
- Quality, accurate reporting
- Ease of use
- Solid updates
- Sometimes if there is an error solutions take a fair bit of research.
Veeam Data Platform, Trusted and Reliable!
- Scheduled Backups
- Cloud Offloading

- Update dependencies: Veeam B&R sometimes cannot be updated until our Veeam Cloud Connect provider has updated
