Veeam Backup & Replication

Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Platform

It backs up our local servers of VMs and files. It also backs it up into azure for immutable backups.

Pros

  • Backup servers
  • Backup files
  • Easy to deploy

Cons

  • Needs better information tutorials
  • Better suggesting for equipment
  • Virtualized workloads
  • Endpoints and physical servers running Windows & Linux
  • Cloud-hosted VMs within AWS or Azure
  • Enterprise UNIX servers running Solaris & IBM AIX
  • Enterprise applications such as Oracle or SAP HANA
  • NAS filers
  • In addition to back up, we also replicate some of these workloads
  • In addition to back up, we also snapshot some of these workloads
  • None of the above

Exactly what I expected
  • So far azure backup is more expensive then predicted
  • It messes up snapshots often
Datto was too in depth for us and expensive. Veeam suits us perfect.
We send immutable backups to azure through Veeam and so far it's working great.
Datto was handled through a third party so I didn't get to stay experience it.
