Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

Used to backup all critical servers across entire organization. Addresses business continuity and disaster/recovery plans.
  • Virtualized workloads
  • Endpoints and physical servers running Windows & Linux
  • NAS filers
  • In addition to back up, we also replicate some of these workloads
  • In addition to back up, we also snapshot some of these workloads
  • “Instant” recovery or portability between platforms (physical > virtual > cloud-hosted)
  • “Instant” recovery or portability between platforms (physical > virtual > cloud-hosted)
  • Bridges gap between bare metal, hyper-v, and vmware installs
  • Incremental backups + full backup merging feature
  • Cloud storage support/integration
  • Difficult to manage portable backup drives
  • Errors for backup repos can hang or take an extremely long time to scan/correct
  • Some error messages are difficult to decrypt and require Googling or forum support

  • Peace of mind in terms of having a disaster/recovery solution
  • Support for all types of critical data/servers
  • Support not only from Veeam Backup & Replication but from other customers as well
Cost of existing backup solution increased + failed to deliver when needed to restore data. Tested Veeam Backup & Replication thoroughly and Veeam Backup & Replication delivered on features and cost savings.
Did not use feature - license is too expensive since it is per GB/Tb
Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365), Google Workspace (formerly G Suite), Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
Universal in support physical bare metal, hyper-v, and vmware installs. Conversion from one to another has been the easiest using Veeam Backup & Replication.
