Veeam Backup & Replication
Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Platform
We use it for our primary backups and it does a great job. While it isn't perfect, nothing is, it really is the best on the market and makes setting up an intricate backup system to meet the needs of our business easy. We have it performing daily backups to 2 different NAS servers as well as a USB rotation. It then will copy this data to an Archive NAS for long term retention. Lastly it replicates our VMWare VSphere server to our data centre for disaster recovery situations.
The cost is well worth the services it provides.

Pros
- Replication of VMs to secondary locations
- Backup jobs to different locations
- Instant restores to test backup integrity
Cons
- User interface could use a refresh
- More detailed errors for failed jobs would be useful. instead of having to find and open log file.
- Grand Father system could have more granularity and options.

Yes
- If we didnt buy VEEAM we would have sought out another product
- As I understand it though VEEAM really is the market leader
- Having this solution means we dont need to spend 100-200K on a hyper-converged solution that would provide backups
