Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Veeam Backup and Replication across our organization to facilitate backup and recovery of our Hyper-V workloads. We currently write our backups to a local NAS and are planning to implement moving backups offsite to cloud storage. We've used the community edition for quite a few years for manual backups and have recently purchased a license allowing us to schedule backups automatically and access all of the other product features.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Reliable and consistently recoverable VM Backups.
Excellent product support. Very responsive.
Good online documentation.

Cons

This is a complex product and there is a learning curve.
Perhaps make it more clear how to recover a Hyper-V VM backup to a different Hyper-V host.
More documentation and video examples of common use cases.
