Veeam ONE

Veeam One is very easy to use, easy to configure and get what you want. The integration for Veeam Backup is perfect, for today i think Veeam need to make Veeam One monitor Microsoft 365 envirioment, this will give great imput and integrated with Veeam Backup for 365 will be amezing.

Veeam ONE does not stack up well against Prometheus because Prometheus is must more flexibile and customizable. AppDynamics and Veeam ONE are similar in that they excel with certain but different aspects. Veeam ONE with backups and AppDynamics with application performance.

Prior to moving to Veeam we used Symantec Backup Exec (VRAY) for managing our backups and VCentre for our VMware environment. The advantage is that Veeam One can monitor both the Vmware Sphere and Veeam Backup environments. It, therefore, provides complete visibility into both the VMware vSphere virtual and backup infrastructure.

Veeam ONE is SO much easier to use than anything in the SolarWinds and VROPS suite of products. A single interface with simple vCenter connectivity and you are up and running. There aren't a whole host of servers and applications that you need to set up and manage just to run Veeam ONE...it's a single server that gathers vCenter performance logs and that's about it, but the power of visibility and reporting that it offers is amazing.

The only other tool we considered was vRealize Ops. It seemed like a good choice as well, but the cost was prohibitive. We also already had Veeam BR and because of a bundle Veeam ONE was not nearly expensive to add on as vRealize Operations was to buy. The limited time I spent with the trial of vRealize Operations was several years ago (when we started using Veeam ONE) and wouldn't likely be relevant today, but at the time the functionality seemed somewhat equivalent if not better, but the expense and added complexity of use made Veeam ONE a better choice for us.

Oracle Enterprise Manager is great but very complicated and required someone with skills to set it up. Also, it’s very expensive.

Carbonite does not have the feature set that Veeam ONE does, thus not allowing our customers the full advantages of using a single pane of glass management system.

Veeam ONE just had great local support and we had a good relationship with them.

Veeam ONE is one of the premier backup solutions for VMWare Virtual Machines that is specifically tailored for VMWare. We feel that it's reporting capabilities to maintain complete histories of all objects, settings, and changes and superior compared to other vendors.

vCenter Server has some alerting and performance monitoring built in, but it is not nearly robust as Veeam One.
