Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup for AWS
Cloud backups as a copy of on-premise backups. We have VMs running on-premise and on AWS. We also have storage buckets hosted with AWS. We run local backups that are also replicated via Veeam to AWS storage buckets and also VMs running in the cloud with AWS that we back up directly to AWS on a different zone.
- Fast
- Reliable
- It just works.
- WAS Storage cost management.
- AWS storage alerts based on Veeam Backups.
- AWS storage alerts based on storage being used by VTLs.
- The only thing is that you have to make sure you understand your AWS costs if your retention periods are not kept under control.
- ROI is hard to prove until the moment you need to restore your workload.
- Time-saving is something that comes to mind. Before Veeam, we used to spend/waste a lot of time verifying and testing our backup and restore. Veeam makes it easy with its SureBackup technology.
Clumio is great in terms of simplicity and cost. Cost is better if your retentions are higher. For example, we pay the same amount of money for keeping a 6-month retention or ten years retention of VMs. You can't beat that. Of course, Clumio doesn't offer all the capabilities that Veeam has, but when costs are an issue, Clumio is a winner in terms of having simple backups that you can restore to on-prem locations.
