Veeam Backup & Replication review.
Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication
Veeam is used by many of our customers primarily for VMware backups. Customers like its simplicity and ease of management.
- VMware backups are very easy to set up.
- Application-level protection from a VM level is tightly integrated and works well.
- It's easy to use and manage via a web interface or gui.
- Limited support for physical servers and products, such as Sybase and other products.
- It can be difficult to track down complex issues.
- Limited support for external storage.
- Veeam does a great job backing up VMs, and with very little management.
- The email alerts and reporting are very good and can be automated to send.
- SQL backups work well and transaction log backups are good.
Veeam does support cloud workloads, and is constantly improving in this area.
The user interface and reporting are straightforward, which adds confidence in the ability to recover. Combined with the ease of testing recovery, this product is ideal for virtualization.
Veeam is on par with Rubrik for VMware backups. It feels well put together. Veeam handles medium-sized environments exceptionally well with little to no day-to-day administration.
