Veeam Backup & Replication

Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

I use [Veeam Backup & Replication] to backup our Server and 10+ workstations. I have also deployed it among numerous client's networks to backup their Server's and Workstations.
It has been a major help since Windows Server Essentials 2019 and later have removed their Built-in Workstation/Client Backup System.
We have also used it multiple times to perform Bare-Metal Restores of systems that have had their hard drive physically fail. Veeam Software literally made the process effortless!

Pros

  • Bare-Metal Restore using a Simple Thumb Drive!
  • Complete Backups of Client Workstations to the Server
  • Supporting Multiple External Backup Hard drives (destinations) to allow for off-site storage of Backups, etc.

Cons

  • Data Deduplication should be easier to implement for Client Workstation Backups
  • The time saved because of the Restore simplicity with Veeam is invaluable
  • The affordability of Veeam compared to other less capable backup software programs is invaluable
[Veeam Backup & Replication] is perfect for anything from a Home Network with a Server to a SMB with a Server that wants full protection of the Server and Client/Workstations in case of the need for a Bare-Metal Restore due to hardware failure or Ransomware/Malware.
Veeam works, it is very reliable, handles multiple back-up destinations, Bare-Metal restore is effortless and it is easy to manage.
