Veeam Backup & Replication

Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Platform

We use Veeam as a backup resolution. Veeam collects backups of our servers, and core switches. I also use Veeam to back up our Lab data to a NAS, mostly we utilize Veeam to create back up Disk rather than in the cloud. We will continue toto use Veeam for our on-prem devices but will transition over to cloud later.

there are about 10 cloud, or virtual workloads being utilized by Veeam Backup and Replication. We are also using Veeam for a physical workload as well. Veeam backups get placed on tapes that then are distributed to a facility that holds tapes for a certain amount of time specific to the increment value.

Veeam Data Platform was most important to our company because it provided backups as an option for all of our data. We were under review for the FDA and there are certain guidelines that need to be followed, providing Veeam backups helped us surpass our review. There was a scenario where I needed to back up the lab data, the Veeam cloud option didn't seem like it would work as well as the physical NAS, but that is personal preference.
