Veeam Data Platform

Formerly Veeam Backup & Replication

I use the system to backup our VMs. I constantly do security tests for return and replication. I am extremely satisfied with the solution and intend to extend our use to more systems. I'm frequently looking for training and reviews to learn about features and updates to improve my usage.

I honestly love Veeam. They provide enough options of configuration for specific job functions, along with the ease of use you'd expect from an enterprise solution in today's day and age. The ability to install the console software anywhere you like is quite handy, and the new features getting added all the time prove to be consistently helpful. If you have VMs or Physical Hosts to back up there is really not a better product out there. I check my backups once a week, and they are always successful. What more could you ask for?

I decided it was time to look for a replacement for a backups solutions which we had been using for many years (BackupExec). Additionally I wanted to find something that would better support our virtual environment and potentially be available as a purpose built hardware solution. Veeam can support this from what I have read to date. Additionally I needed to try it before making a decision to move forward. The community edition has allowed me to do this and works well.

We currently use two versions of Veeam in our organization. The first is through our MSP which backups more than a dozen virtual servers and several physical servers. The second instance of Veeam is the Community Edition in the IT sandbox development area backing up test systems and sandbox virtual setups that we keep out of the production network. Prior to Veeam, we had no constantly monitored backup system that had an ease of use for restoring files or virtual servers. The biggest problem Veeam solves is giving us backup and restoration of our Exchange mailboxes with extreme ease.

We use Veeam Backup & Replication to backup our servers and virtual machines. With VMWare, if you want to use replication, you have to buy 2 expensive licenses, one for each server in the replication cluster. With Veeam Backup & Replication you can use the free VMWare license, as long as you don't exceed the amount of machines allowed. For smb this will usually suffice.

I am currently using Veeam to backup several Windows servers and desktops. As the work we do requires design and customer interaction, we run backups hourly to minimize any chance of data loss.

A fantastic backup solution that helps us to retrieve data when it is needed. It enables us to keep backups on-site and off-site for disaster recovery, including duplicated tasks. I found the features and reports to be rather strong. It's not difficult to practice restores. I've never required vendor help to use or configure Veeam Backup & Replication - it works great and has excellent documentation!

I've been testing for the file server daily backup, when I found a simpler option in Veeam Backup Agent that works perfectly. We used pervasive backup solutions in basic server environments like file server. Finding such an effective tool with free features was a really big addition to our business.

Backing up my virtual Servers is very easy and secure with Veeam B&R. Recover Files or complete HyperV is fast and easy. No Problems with the Software at all. Very good Community and Support.

We have a multi-terabyte volume (6tb and growing daily) of marketing images/drawings/3d assets that is difficult to manage just due to the size. We were able to set up a NAS volume quickly and use Veeam to keep it backed up daily, and are keeping 14 days of recovery points live on this NAS unit. Was easy to configure and get working right away.

We use Veeam B&R to protect the integrity of client data from destruction and comply with regulatory needs based on industry. Whether the client's server pool is virtual or physical, Veeam allows us to backup/replicate at a rate that matches our client's needs. If a machine goes down, we can spin up a virtual instance of the machine on the B&R appliance. It is a very flexible tool. Some clients use a completely on-premise model, while others use a hybrid of on-premise and cloud storage. Replication of virtual machines to cloud storage is quite straightforward. I have used this in real life. One client's data storage was taken down by a power company equipment explosion which created a surge that blew out several essential pieces of equipment in the data center. Luckily, we had a Veeam appliance in a separate, unaffected area and were able to spin up a replica that was only 10 minutes old in less than 30 minutes. Everyone kept working until we were able to have the storage array repaired. Then we just pushed the data back to the array and were back to normal. Staff only had to re-enter 10 minutes of work. A big save.

At Spitfire, we develop and maintain software. At any one time, three versions are under maintenance and we require VMs suitable for building each and another set of VMs for QA and testing. This adds up to a lot of VMs, with a need to be able to restore an entire VM. Of course, we also have standard infrastructure: AD servers, gateways, storage. Our old backup solution was taking far too long to run each night. Veeam gets the job done in minutes

Backups are plain and simple. No miss and very little fuss. Veeam allows us to deploy a backup solution to a number of customer environments and integrates well with our VMware hypervisor. Veeam gives us lots of flexibility with who has access and its ease of use allows us to trust our less skilled admins to perform simple tasks.

It's a great software, and very handy for everything it was built to do. I can always trust a Veeam Backup of my work!

We use [Veeam Backup Replication] for daily, weekly, and monthly onsite as well as offsite backups for both virtual and physical infrastructures.

In my current environment, we use Veeam Backup and Replication in order to back up our production and sandbox virtual machines. We have been using Veeam as it's a very user-friendly backup solution to set up and use. As we needed a tool that centrally manages all of our backup schedules and jobs, Veeam gives us that and more. With Veeam I am able to see all of my backup jobs easily, organize and schedule them. Veeam also makes restoring from backups a breeze. Many times we have VM's that get tarnished during OS update testing, new application testing, or just average everyday wear and tear. Our normal process includes deleting a corrupted version of the VM from our host and simply restoring it with ease using Veeam. Another great selling point of Veeam was that it was a tool I could easily teach to my other Admins. They were able to pick it up with ease thanks to the user-friendly UI and descriptive explanations of what all the features do. Their support is stellar and always willing to lend a helping hand when we have technical issues. Finally, alerting after jobs complete successfully or fail is a huge help.

We use Veeam to back up our virtual machine, as well as the Hyper-V host. Veeam has been an invaluable tool in retrieving data and ensuring data is being backed up. It truly provides peace of mind for our organization.

We use Veeam for all of our critical company data backups. Veeam Backup and Replication is a versatile solution that allows us to manage all of our backups from a simple and easy-to-use interface. It is feature-rich and multifaceted and at the same time easy to set up and configure your backups. Outstanding product and great value for money.

We use Veeam to back up all of our VMs for archiving and for disaster recovery. We can also use it at a more granular level and restore even singular files on a machine, or create a second copy of a machine to do a test with instead of trying it on the production server.

We can start virtual server replications quickly and easily. Thanks to its flexible structure, we can back up many data storage systems. Thanks to the ease of management, we reduce the time for users to adapt to the management interface.

Veeam Backup and Replication is used to back up our entire virtual infrastructure and a handful of physical servers using the Veeam Agent. With Veeam's application awareness we are able to quickly restore individual items instead of full servers. We also use the Lab functionality to perform quarterly restore testing to confirm the backups are reliable.

We use Veeam to store backups on a Nas. Rather than an extremely dated tape system. Tapes are extremely unreliable and often get lost or damaged. Veeam offers a more secure and reliable backup system. We currently back up around 20 servers and can scale with ease on the Veeam platform. I highly suggest anyone who has to backup server data choose Veeam.

We use Veeam backup and replication to take daily backups of all our virtual and physical servers at our business. We use Veeam B&R to protect all the company data by backing it up to external hard drives and also using Veeam to upload the data to online repositories as well to keep us protected in multiple ways.

Veeam is utilized for us to manage retention-based copies of our critical data sets for on-premise data (file servers, SQL DBs, and whole virtual machines (Windows)). We also utilize it to back O365 data to Azure blob storage. Some data sets are protected multiple times per day if the RPO dictates. Veeam solves compliance retention for our Bank plus allows us to help users who may have an operational impact when data is removed accidentally.

I have used several backup and replication software applications in the past. We have found that Veeam is VERY user-friendly and reliable. The user interface is simple. The application is reliable and the technical support is excellent. I strongly recommend this software and will continue using it. Not only do we use it for backups but the snapshots are an excellent addition to our disaster recovery plan should there be a major issue with our data
