Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use to it back up all of our servers and workstations and virtual machines. In case of failure, we are able to roll the target to a backup. It is very convenient and much better than needing to rebuild or start over from scratch.

Pros and Cons

Virtual Machine backup
Bare metal backup
Workstation backup

I would like to be able to do licensing while offline.
In my opinion, some of the UI is not very intuitive.

Return on Investment

Positive in that we can assure the customers that their data is safe.
It is easy to install and manage.

Alternatives Considered

Veeam Backup & Replication

We recently replaced Veeam Backup and Replication with Unitrends. The change was not too cumbersome, and I feel that we are to the point now where we are getting proper backups. They both seem to do the same thing from what I can tell. They both handle backup of bare metal servers and virtual machines.
