Veeam Backup & Replication

Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Platform

We use VEEAM Data platform as a backup tool for our production and system virtual machines. Some of the business problems that the product addresses are: the prevention of data loss from accidental file deletion, always-on data availability and reliability, ensuring compliance with data retention and security policies. The scope really depends on the specific needs and objectives of our business such as the type and amount of data to be backed up, how frequent and the duration of backup operations, the location and format of backup storage, the recovery point objective and recovery time objective for data recovery and the level of automation and testing for backup and recovery processes.

Pros

  • Ransomware Warranty
  • Best practice analyzer
  • Direct backup to Object Storage
  • Data freedom
  • Recovery orchestration

Cons

  • Solution admin scheduling scripts need improvement, import and export processes for information and policies could be better
  • Interface and cluster environments could be improved in the future as they are using agent oriented interface
  • A complete Linux version instead of relying on Microsoft for management

Yes

Did implementation of Veeam Data Platform go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Veeam Data Platform again?

Yes

  • Easily manageable VMWARE workloads
  • Restores have been easy hence reducing offline time
  • Ease of configuration
VEEAM works amazingly with VMs with instant VM recovery, and built/designed for the virtual world, site replication for disaster recovery. Reporting is good but could be easier to setup, copy to tape interferes with normal backups, performance could be improved, ability to run on Linux would be a game changer
