Veeam Backup & Replication

Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

I use Veeam Backup & Replication to back up my entire Infrastructure, both physical and virtual. I also use it to move virtual servers off Nutanix to VMware with very little effort. It's the only software I have found that does it. Another AMAZING Feature is that Veeam can do a P2V on the fly. If I have a physical server crash, I can bring it up on VMware fully converted and published using VEEAM B & R In 15 Minutes.
  • Virtualized workloads
  • Endpoints and physical servers running Windows & Linux
  • NAS filers
  • In addition to back up, we also snapshot some of these workloads
  • Application-centric recovery using Veeam Explorers (for Exchange, SQL, Sharepoint, etc)
  • Capacity Tier to store data within object storage for longer term retention
  • Utilizing backup copies for secondary purposes via DataLabs
  • Automating test restores to validate recoverability
  • “Instant” recovery or portability between platforms (physical > virtual > cloud-hosted)
  • Automating test restores to validate recoverability
  • Converting Physical workload to Virtual.
  • Backup Copy.
  • Cloud Integration.
  • Immutability.

  • Positive - The Product support is excellent.
We had no completed backup and restore package before Veeam --- after evaluating 3 backup packages, Veeam was the way to go.
We are not utilizing cloud backup with Veeam.
I back up seven file share servers and so backup copies as well; this has given us the confidence to use Veeam and be comfortable with the decision.
Veeam Backup & Replication is well suited in every environment with more than 25 servers in my opinion. Other than that use Acronis for smaller deployments.
