Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

We internally use Veeam to backup our internal servers, and we design and deploy it for our customers. It is a comprehensive backup solution that allows granular recovery of files and application data for VMs, as well as replication. It solves problems for data protection and disaster recovery. It is easy to use and maintain.
  • Reliably backs up and replicates VMs
  • Easy to use and maintain
  • Recovers major application and service data granularly easily, such as Exchange and AD
  • Great technical support
  • Better solution for physical machine backup
  • Tighter integration and performance for major deduplication appliances such as Data Domain
  • Proactive notification of inability to purge VMware snapshots
  • Increased sales by protecting data
  • Allowed customers to maintain compliance for Disaster Recovery Objectives
Veeam is very reliable as a backup and replication suite. It is also very easy to use. The only two areas where it doesn't fit well for Hyper-V and VMware environments are places were additional technologies are required to backup massive amounts of VMs, and customers that need to backup physical machines other than Windows 2008 and newer.
Backup and replication of virtual machines on VMware and Hyper-V. Granular file and application data recovery. Works well in environments where intuitiveness, ease of management and maintenance, and reliability are critical.
