Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication
Veeam is used to back up my virtual machines running under VMware. I back up my entire enterprise with it and use it for backup and as a simple DR solution. I maintain local backups and offload them to Microsoft Azure as a cloud storage platform for the backups. I honestly do not face any challenges with the product, and it fully meets my needs and expectations.
- Virtualized workloads
- In addition to back up, we also replicate some of these workloads
- Capacity Tier to store data within object storage for longer term retention
- Automating test restores to validate recoverability
- “Instant” recovery or portability between platforms (physical > virtual > cloud-hosted)
- Capacity Tier to store data within object storage for longer term retention
- Backs up VM's quickly and efficiently.
- Excellent deduplication to reduce storage needs.
- Ability to automatically have local backups upload to the cloud automatically.
- Veeam really needs a single console/dashboard for Backup & Replication & M365 backup products.
- Better notification of updates/patches for Backup & replication.

In our case, it was my joining the company. In my prior company, we had implemented Veeam. When I joined YCC they were using a product that was inferior in my opinion. I sang the praises of Veeam to my management and they agreed to implement it.
We offload our local backups to Azure storage.
We do not use this feature.
