Veeam Backup & Replication
Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Platform
I backup both VM and physical servers in our DCS environment, totaling 30. The mixed environment made managing backups difficult, whereas VEEAM made this easy and efficient. Being able to manage backups from one location, as well as create one-offs on servers too old / incompatible with networked solutions made this the best choice.

30 - what we needed the platform to do
- Backups kept one system in service after an update killed the application
- using the backup, we were able to create a new instance of a server to send off for lab testing
After a Cyber Event on our company, we took new steps to protect our servers
We aren't currenlty using the cloud, we use NAS storage
We use NAS storage at different locations to utilize availability in the event of a disaster recover episode.
