Veeam Backup & Replication

Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Platform

We use Veeam to protect around 100 VM and 50To with data deduplication, hardened repository, GFS archives and tapes.
Our goal was to retain over 6 months of granularity and in a short backup window.
With Veeam we are able to achieve multiples backups every 4 hours at 3x deduplication in less than 10 minutes windows.

Pros

  • Performance of backups
  • Clarity of the UI
  • Alerts and reporting
  • Tapes management
  • deduplication and compression

Cons

  • Management of agents fleet
  • Reporting of agents
  • Performance of agents
  • More virtualisation plateform support (standard KVM like proxmox or opennebula, xen...)

Did implementation of Veeam Data Platform go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Veeam Data Platform again?

Yes

  • We went from 2 hours long daily backup to 10 min long incremental each 4 hours.
  • We have over 450 To of backup stored on a 250 To volume
  • We are now 4-3-1-2-X (more work needed for the last 0)
The Veeam data platform is easy to install and use.
But moreover, it's easy to understand its spirit and behavior. You are not surprised when things happen and can easily manage any events.
It has great performance that save a lot of time and storage
Agent management could be better and more friendly.
