Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication
Veeam Backup software provides peace of mind for my many customers. I support a number of small VMware ESXi deployments. Veeam software is simple to set up and provides a lot of flexibility as to my desired storage medium. I've never had issues with the software itself—it just works.
- 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
- NAS filers
- Immutable storage to protect against ransomware
- Immutable storage to protect against ransomware
- Recovers well from errors.
- Provides flexibility as to choosing your storage medium.
- Fast and reliable recovery.
- Detailed and understandable error messages (as compared with others).
- Would be nice to have native apps for NAS, such as QNAP, Synology and Drobo.
I use Veeam to backup the full virtual infrastructure for each of my customers.
- Compared to the other options I've tried, Veeam was the hands-down choice considering features, ease of use, and footprint.
I moved my customers from individual backups at the OS level to a centralized backup at the hypervisor level. This significantly reduced resource usage, time to backup, and provided a single pane of glass for server backups.
