Overall Satisfaction with Veeam ONE

Our Systems Administrators use it most frequently to manage and monitor performance of our virtual infrastructure components across the enterprise. We have other monitoring solutions in place (SolarWinds, VROPS) but none of them are as handy, or intuitive as Veeam ONE for a centralized monitoring tool for near real time performance.
  • Quick and intuitive to use. Compared to other products we have used, Veeam ONE is the easiest to get new users to utilize. Search functionality is fast and the amount of data that is in the console window is logically organized.
  • Broad, or detailed overviews of infrastructure performance depending on the need at the moment. Users can easily scale the reporting from a full cluster, down to a single object in seconds. Users can also easily adjust the reporting time period from minutes, to hours/days/weeks/etc. in a few clicks.
  • Support for Veeam ONE is often slow. Because it is not a 'production' system, unless the server/service is hard down, Veeam's Support Team is not really all that quick to respone to Veeam ONE support needs.
  • The most positive impact has been a centralized platform to manage all our vCenter Tags, which orchestrate all our BCDR solutions with Veeam.
  • Response time for analyzing system performance when there are issues has greatly increased due to the simplicity of the software, plus we have been able to allow access to application developers and managers to view and asses their servers when they feel there are issues, without the need to contact the infrastructure team members.
Veeam ONE is SO much easier to use than anything in the SolarWinds and VROPS suite of products. A single interface with simple vCenter connectivity and you are up and running. There aren't a whole host of servers and applications that you need to set up and manage just to run Veeam ONE...it's a single server that gathers vCenter performance logs and that's about it, but the power of visibility and reporting that it offers is amazing.
Support, as mentioned earlier, is often slow to respond for Veeam ONE requests. To Veeam's credit, they will work on an issue until they find a solution, and will even develop a specific hotfix for your environment if one is needed, but response time is just slow.

When there is any sort of performance issue, Veeam ONE is well suited to help assess the problem.

We prefer this tool over any of the more complicated ones in our environment.
