For my particular scenario, Data Platform is perfect. It backs up my companies important information to a local host that is easy to access when we need it, but also backs that up to an offsite location in the event of a major catastrophe. And the guest file restoration is a godsend for when users get a little over zealous and delete or change something they shouldn't have.

I think Veeam Data Platform has the capability to offer a comprehensive back solution for every backup scenario and needs. It has been one of the main backup solution we have been using for us to be in compliance with the company's policies. However, depend of the cloud platform you are hosting your application and taking in consideration the cost you have to transfer outbound data from your cloud provider, I think Veeam Data Platform is more suitable for backing up on-premise data.

If you are looking to implement a robust backup solution with configurations anywhere from daily to 10 minute increments, Veeam provides the tools to set yourself up with a reliable backup platform. They also give you the tools to use your own resources for off-site backup, which can make for huge savings whether you have your own secondary site or use colocation in another data center.

Veeam Data Platform shines in virtualized environments. Its ease of use and straightforward interface make it particularly well-suited for protecting and managing data in virtual machines. Whether it's backing up, replicating, or recovering virtualized workloads, Veeam's capabilities in this area are top-notch.
When it comes to data recovery tasks handled by IT teams, Veeam Data Platform proves highly effective. IT administrators can easily perform data restores, ensuring minimal downtime and quick resolution of data-related issues. But there are some challenges when it comes to delegating restore tasks to helpdesk personnel or non-technical users. The administrative interface could benefit from improved features for delegation and role-based access control to streamline this process. This limitation can make it less suitable for organizations that rely heavily on helpdesk teams for routine data recovery tasks.

A few years back, we had a blackout from a lightning storm that stuck close to our data center, and one of our clusters got corrupted.

I worked for a publicly traded company and they didn't have ANYTHING for backups. I was blown away and could not believe that. All they did was take manual, not even automated, snapshots in their AWS tenants and Azure tenants. This company literally had themselves in the worst spot ever if they got hit with an attack. This was one company that could have greatly benefitted from Veeam. I tried to push it to them, but ultimately I ended up leaving as there was too much else not right there..

Backing up to multiple storage points has never been easier than with Veeam. I would always recommend using Veeam for your backup strategy. Also, migrating VMs from older hosts is very easy with Veeam. Veeam would be less suitable for backing up user desktops. There might be other solutions for that.

Star product in the virtual space. Regular and progressive updates to the platform by a company focused on the future. Great support team that takes ownership of any problems. Innovative solutions such as RestoreLabs that solves problems you didn't know you had. Physical backups check the box, and while definitely not the focus of the organization, do get the job done. Ditto for the tape space. Overall a reliable product with good support.

As long as the system is properly configured and monitored I have never been let down when needing to recover granular items or entire servers. I used the replication abilities to migrate a small datacenter group of Hyper-V VMs to a new datacenter with zero downtime which was invaluable. I have also used the product in VMware environments where it was rock solid.

Veeam Data Platform has been great for backups and restores. We had a serious outage and Veeam came to the rescue allowing us to restore quickly. We also trust Veeam to be configured to withstand ransomware attacks, always a major concern when it comes to backups. So far, we don't have any issues with Veeam.

The ability to see all backups and an overview of success and failures is very useful. Reports for VM's and other detailed reports might not be necessary for small users. Having options not to included data reporting to lessen the price may be appropriate.

Even for small companies VEEAM offers a great all in one solution for most of our scenarios, e.g. getting some machines backed up over an internet connection with 100 MBit/s without blocking the whole connection. The restore of a specific data file is well implemented even a restore of files based on a linux system are possible on windows.

Veeam has been the go-to backup platform for me in every place of employment since 2010. It is extremely reliable with excellent customer support, and the product is very quick and efficient for both physical and virtual workloads. With the recent change to reintroduce per socket licensing again, the product is even more cost effective.

We have had servers in the past where they would go down without notice and was lost. Thanks to the restore functionality of Veeam, we were able to get it back in a timely manner and did not affect overall business. This also applied as a test of the platform to verify that it was capable of doing what we needed it to do.

Over Veeam is a great solution for any medium to large company. Support is friendly and knowledgeable. The solution provides a number of additional features that can be used to meet almost any backup needs. Recovery from backups are simple and quick allowing a few clicks to recover a single file to restoring a full VM. The only issue I have encountered was the price.
