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 …

(1-4 of 4)Small Law Firms Review of Veeam Backup & Replication
- Endpoints and physical servers running Windows & Linux
- Virtualized workloads
- None of the above
- None of the above
- Protects our data with nightly incremental backups
- Allows for quick restoral of data if needed
- Can create new 'full backups' from data sets without having to perform a full backup
- The interface is a bit clunky...I preferred it before they 'fisher priced' the interface
- Support can be problematic, as it takes a while to get someone to respond to a ticket; that MAY be related to Covid
- The cost has gone up considerably in recent years.
I've used other products that are better at protecting the data (faster backups, more recovery points), like the Datto Siris, but they're much more expensive. To protect the same size data set with Datto would require about $50,000 purchase and $5,000 monthly expenses.
- It's greatly increased our recovery time for accidently deleted or damaged files.
- It's greatly increased our recovery points.
- Recovery of accidently damaged or deleted files
- Projecting growth by easily seeing how much data is changing
- Ransomware protection
- Sadly, we're pretty vanilla. Just using it to perform nightly backups and restore the occasional 'oops'
- Again, we're happy with the basic functions
- Price
- Product Features
- Prior Experience with the Product
- Implemented in-house
We're running a single physical server, with two data volumes (35 TB and 25 TB) that are being protected.
- The times for full backups. Each of our large data sets took a week or more.
- No Training
Then, the actual reseller was sluggish to produce the quote and process the purchase... the sales agent again helped out getting things finalized.
- Sadly, none. The interface is very clunky and required a lot of looking things up.
- Most things. The interface is very clunky, and needs to be redesigned. It required a lot of looking up reference material to figure out where something was. Luckily, that was mostly a setup issue.
- We haven't integrated it with anything.
- None at present.
- Still on the version we purchased. That said, reliable backups.
- N/A

Veeam, in my 5 years
- Endpoints and physical servers running Windows & Linux
- Virtualized workloads
- Application-centric recovery using Veeam Explorers (for Exchange, SQL, Sharepoint, etc)
- Capacity Tier to store data within object storage for longer term retention
- Application-centric recovery using Veeam Explorers (for Exchange, SQL, Sharepoint, etc)
- File Level Restoring
- RPO based tag reading across vcenter
- SQL truncation
- Better interoperability with AWS tiers
- Better design for the UI or description - currently too difficult to guess what does what
- Can be very error prone even if a little scheduling conflict takes place
Large production hives, where it's mostly VC based
Inappropriate:
Small to medium companies where servers need to be active a lot, leaving little in a backup window
- Scalable
- Learning curve is smaller
- Support is pretty great (though half the time)
QA Specialist
SQL Admin
System Administrator
Understanding of networking topology, backups, virtual infrastructure, SQL is needed
- SQL Truncated Backups
- Regular Backups of VMs
- Backup Copy
- Recovery of accidentally deleted files from file servers
- Backup copy
- Fast file level restore
- S3 Offloading
- S3 Direct Backup
Can do most things really well, though S3 support has been wonky at best
We replaced it because Veeam came with a lot more features (vcenter level rpo tag) and the licensing was cheaper
