Our organisation uses Veeam Data Platform Backup and Replication as both a local backup solution, and as a Disaster Recovery solution via replication to a Veeam Cloud Service Provider. The solution protects 30 virtual machine hosts, and provides us a comprehensive solution, which is extremely cost effective at this scale.

We recently moved from another product to veeam, as a small company we were looking for an affordable and robust disaster recovery solution. The pricing on our previous solution had become an issue for us. We use the product to protect several windows workstations and 35 hyper-v guests.

We found the initial set up to be very easy and it is simple to test backups to ensure confidence in the product

Veeam Data Platform has been our replication solution for our VMware environment for several years. The integration and ease of use when dealing with VMware hypervisors made it an easy choice. As the cyber threat world evolved, we looked at several options to either enhance our backup and replication strategy, or to replace Veeam Data Platform all together. Several factors contributed to our decision making process such as ease of management, compatibility, licensing, cost, and feature set. In the end, our decision was to keep Veeam Data Platform. The product set has evolved over the years to handle the threats we see day to day.

A couple of years ago, we had a natural disaster happen very close to the station. This raised the risk of total destruction for all information that we have here. With Veeam Data Platform, we can replicate and rebuild our systems when needed. This has been a breather for my part without the risk that one day, I can come to the station and everything is gone. The GUI is rather intuitive and does not require a large amount of knowledge to start backing up right away. We use Backblaze and the integration with Veeam Data Platform has made the work seamless.

Veeam was utilized as our primary backup and recovery solution. It was frequently used to recover incorrectly deleted data from server shares. It was also integral to our disaster recovery plan with our laboratory services.

We have around 120 tbs of data and using veeam as one of my main data replication strategies has served me very well. The support for this product is excellent and literally any issues I typically encounter are solved within the first few responses with their support team. That being said the easy to use platform around spinning up a backup is incredibly useful and easy to do. I was even able to walk through all of my helpdesk staff on how to do this and spin up guest OS's to recover dead files. I really can't say enough good things about Veeam and I'd highly recommend them to any person in the IT field looking to supplement their disaster recovery policies, or make a new one centered around veeam.

We use Veeam Data Platform to handle all of our backups for our server estate. The product makes backing up so fast and seamless compared to another product we used to use, it offers great flexibility and major scalability with great support from the software vendor if needed. Updating is made a cinch and doesn't require any downtime from our side and the backups just pick right back up where they left off if they hit a snag.

We use Veeam Data Platform as our primary backup solution for our physical and virtual infrastructure, after a long history of using various backup products my advice is Veeam Data Platform should always be in consideration for any company implementing or replacing their current back up strategy. The product is so efficient on storage space and features like replication and copy backup help implement a great DR strategy too.

We use Veeam as a backup resolution. Veeam collects backups of our servers, and core switches. I also use Veeam to back up our Lab data to a NAS, mostly we utilize Veeam to create back up Disk rather than in the cloud. We will continue toto use Veeam for our on-prem devices but will transition over to cloud later.

Several years ago and several versions ago, we switched to Veeam after having multiple bad experiences with other backup solutions. It has always been easy to use and dependable. We run back up locally, remotely, and to the cloud with no issues. Over the years, we have done hundreds of different restores with no issues. We stay with them because there is just never an issue.

We currently use Veeam Backup & Replication within a supported client environment. This client has roughly 14x total servers, of which 11x are VMs and 3x are host servers. Veeam Backup & Replication is responsible for running nightly backups on all of these servers. We've found that it's an easy-to-manage, out-of-the-box solution for backing up both physical hosts and their associated VMs. We rarely have any issues that require reaching out to the Veeam Support Team and in the few instances that we have engaged their support, we've been impressed with their timely response and ability to assist with the issue at hand. The cost associated with the required Veeam licenses is slightly higher than some of the other backup solutions that we've worked with in the past. Still, we find that we have far fewer issues getting Veeam Backup & Replication to do what we need it to do and the time saved more than makes up for the higher price point that the software itself can carry.

It helps us secure and replicate our backups. The information being secured is extremely sensitive and requires the upmost protection to prevent any sort of unauthorized access or intrusion. We need to be able to ensure that all replications flare consistent and secure while both in transit and at rest. Making sure that it’s working properly is something we entrust to Veeam Data Platform.

We use Veeam as our server backup solution. It is utilized to store and restore our data nightly. All of our business is run from one server, so having a reliable backup solution is crucial. Not only are all of our records and project files from the last thirty-five years of business stored on the server, every employee utilizes it as a remote desktop. Keeping that data safe, accessible and usable is our number one concern. Veeam was introduced as a super solution to our problem.

In my experience, Veeam Data Platform is very easy to implement and manage. We are using it to do onsite backup for our infrastructure. We are currently a version behind. We like to wait with implementing new versions until a dot version is available. Backups are running quickly, and reporting is great. The tool adds a lot of new features, which we are looking forward to evaluate and implement if time comes.

We manage in-house Exchange for email. We use Veeam Data Platform to backup databases to have an off-prem safety net and the product was simple to deploy. Over the past 14 months we have had some small issues and Veeam Data Platform support was responsive and quick to resolve the issues. We are looking into their air-gap technology and may move to that system by years end.

It’s our main backup tool for all our servers we’re hosting within four data center. Additionally we started to us it for M365 data backups. My main responsibility is the usage of transactional-consistent backups for our main databases SAP HANA (Backint interface) and Oracle (RMAN interface). For both of these we’re using the Veeam plugin.

We needed a high quality backup tool to back up a handful of traditional physical servers we had system-wide. After researching, Veeam Data Platform seemed to be the best choice. Since then we have also used Veeam Data Platform to back up systems that needed application-aware backup like AD, plus one VM that needed a user-friendly GUI for restores.
