Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

We used Veeam Backup & Replication to enhance our current backup solution at some of our remote sites that we did not have licensing for our primary backup software. Veeam community edition fills in the gap with no charge for using the community edition and meets all of our backup/recovery/replication needs.

Pros

  • Replication between sites.
  • Customizing retention periods.
  • Backing up multiple virtual machines.

Cons

  • Wish the community edition could to fail over/fail back.

Did implementation of Veeam Data Platform go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Veeam Data Platform again?

Yes

  • Lower then expected cost of ownership.
  • Advanced features included in base pricing.
Veeam Backup and Replication, specifically the community edition, is a perfect solution for any business that has less than 10 machines to backup. I'm not aware of any other free solution that has all the features and functions that the Veeam community edition has included at no charge. If you happen to grow over 10 servers you can easily upgrade to a paid version.
