Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

In our company, we use the Veeam Backup & Replication solution to backup all our production VMs. The Veeam Backup & Replication solution came to meet an open gap in terms of backup, which the company was outdated and with backups in an unsafe way, and it works. With Veeam Backup & Replication, we can backup VMs extremely quickly, with a centralized management console where we can quickly restore specific files, entire VMs, just volumes, etc., with robust control of stored backup versions.

Pros

  • Incremental backup of Hyper-V VM's
  • Restoring individual files from any existing restore point
  • Replication of Hyper-V VMs between servers

Cons

  • Possibility to replicate jobs and restore points to another Veeam console
  • Possibility to add google drive as external repository

Would you buy Veeam Data Platform again?

Yes

  • Company data security for business continuity
  • Agility in the management and monitoring of backups
  • Better use of datastore resource for backups using Veeam Backup & Replication
  • License cost a little high
The Veeam Backup & Replication solution is ideal for backups of virtualized environments. It provides agility for the backup of VMs, all in a centralized console for monitoring, making it possible to retain several restore points and restore files in a granular way without the need for backup of folders isolated, which makes management difficult. However, the Veeam Backup & Replication solution fits better in medium-large enterprise environments, as it needs a dedicated and robust datastore. The cost of its license to allow the backup of several VMs is not very affordable. For small companies, it is possible to use the free version with limitations, but it also works excellently if the environment has a simple infrastructure.
