  • Endpoints and physical servers running Windows & Linux
  • NAS filers
  • Immutable storage to protect against ransomware
  • “Instant” recovery or portability between platforms (physical > virtual > cloud-hosted)
  • Immutable storage to protect against ransomware

  • Backup to tape
  • Backing up NAS Shares directly to tape
  • Backing up to cloud

Do you think Veeam Data Platform delivers good value for the price?

Did Veeam Data Platform live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Veeam Data Platform go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Veeam Data Platform again?

Yes

We currently backup in the neighborhood of 1000 VMs and 25 physical servers.
  • Veeam was able to backup our Exchange environment when other applications failed
  • It has proven beneficial with Disaster recovery efforts
We were struggling to backup a few key applications with our previous product.
We are in the proof of concept phase with backing up to the cloud
We backup our NAS direct to tape. This feature (NDMP) is supported however it has its downfalls. We just didn't have the disk space to backup to disk.
Veeam works really well for virtualized environments. Veeam does not work well for physical Solaris hardware
