Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use [Veeam] Backup & Replication as a department, but backing up organization data as a whole.

This solves the need to store physical backups. We used to have physical tape drives that we would have to send off to Recall. With the pandemic, going into the office was not allowed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Restoring backups are very simple and the GUI is well thought out.
Great support and user community

Cons

The Scale Out Repository setup could be simplified or more intuitive.

Return on Investment

Sense of security
Reliability
Ease of access

Likelihood to Recommend

As described earlier, with the pandemic hitting, we used to backup to tape, then send our tapes off to Recall. It was a very clunky process and not very efficient. The need to get backups offsite without a manual process was a requirement with COVID and not being able to be in the building. It offloads backups to Azure (in our case) very efficiently.
