Overall Satisfaction with Vembu BDR Suite
Testing of new product software is performed on a single VMWare Server. We use VEMBU to back up the 60+ VM's on that VMWare Server to an external Hard drive.
- It reports test results via e-mail.
- We can run reliable backups without bringing VSphere server down.
- It organizes full and incremental back-ups coherently.
- Upgrading to new versions is relatively labor-intensive.
- VMs to be backed up sometimes fail due to a lack of ability to create a snapshot. Vembu should find a way to work around this issue.
- Supporting external storage (cloud) could be easier to configure, use, and integrate into the back-up processes.
- Confidence that development build systems and test environments were well backed up.
- We have not experienced a need to recover backed-up data, so I can't speak to anything in that area.
- The time to update through multiple upgraded versions was excessive. I would have preferred that the updates could be done more efficiently.
I had confidence that I could recover and backed up VM. I ran it in a test mode before purchasing it and confirmed the back-up and recovery processes.
No, we used it strictly for virtual environments.
No, we have not.
- Veeam Backup & Replication
I thought Veaam was overly complex for backing up a single VM Server.
