Veeam Backup & Replication
Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication
We are using Veeam to backup data and also replicate the backups as a copy to our data center and vice versa for disaster recovery. Instant VM recovery and also file explorer based recovery to meet our SLA goal of recovery in minutes or at least less than 24 hours.Backup of Hyper-V VM's and physical backup of some desktops with endpoint backup.
- Virtualized workloads
- Endpoints and physical servers running Windows & Linux
- In addition to back up, we also replicate some of these workloads
- Cloud-hosted VMs within AWS or Azure
- Application-centric recovery using Veeam Explorers (for Exchange, SQL, Sharepoint, etc)
- Automating test restores to validate recoverability
- “Instant” recovery or portability between platforms (physical > virtual > cloud-hosted)
- Application-centric recovery using Veeam Explorers (for Exchange, SQL, Sharepoint, etc)
- Application aware backup
- Instant VM recovery
- Fast backup
- DR recovery and replication
- Portable backups that are taken offline for a long period have a hard time to re-sync backup and just fail
30, about the same as when we started, but can easily grow to more as needed.
- Reliable backup
- Fast backup
- Easy to use and implement
We are using it about the same now, but plan to add in some cloud backups down the road. The learning curve is pretty easy but there are alot of options that we have not also explored yet within the software, and updates happen all the time.
We have not yet started to backup from or to the cloud
You can backup to just about anything as a storage repository. We are using an old non-production SAN but could also use a NAS or anything else, very versatile.
