Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Backup & Replication

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We've used Veeam products for a few years now, and implementing Veeam B&R for some of our VM infrastructure was a natural next step: the interface is familiar, and the features are robust. We brought in a reseller to help with some of the setup (and to help make sure we nailed the best practices), and it's been working seamlessly since then. The biggest thing we're currently waiting on is the ability to seamlessly back up and bare metal restore SMB shares; we've been told that comes out in v12.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Simple and methodical VM backups.
Stable and well-supported.
Robust monitoring.

Cons

SMB bare metal restores (upcoming feature!)

We're waiting on a few more features in the coming months, but it's been an excellent product.
