Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication
Veeam Backup & Replication is being used to backup our VMWARE ESXi virtual infrastructure, We backup Virtual machines to a local datastore (different Rack) and between 2 of our 3 sites. Currently it is only being used for this purpose, we will look to use replication functionality when we have increased infrastructure capacity at our newer sites.
- Virtualized workloads
- Endpoints and physical servers running Windows & Linux
- In addition to back up, we also replicate some of these workloads
- In addition to back up, we also snapshot some of these workloads
- License portability as your environment needs change
- Automating test restores to validate recoverability
- “Instant” recovery or portability between platforms (physical > virtual > cloud-hosted)
- “Instant” recovery or portability between platforms (physical > virtual > cloud-hosted)
- When data loss occurs it is easily recoverable with little/no downtime
- Easy to use interface
- Excellent scalability
- Slow Backup and restore tasks
- Troubleshooting errors can be tedious
Currently around 40 in our VI. has been scalable and time permitting I will add more to this scope
- Effective DR saved loss of time and data
I was employed in my position and saw a need for a backup solution for our Virtual Infrastructure, looked into and implemented without a problem and has been working ever since.
I haven't looked too heavily into this
