Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Platform

We use Veeam Backup and Replication to secure contant, encrypted backups as well as immutable backups to secure our data in the unlikely event of a ransomware attack. Using a 3-2-1 standard for backups, Veeam has improved our overall security and peace of mind. Veeam is likely the biggest name in backup, and as such, we feel very good about our choice.

Pros

  • Immutable Backups
  • Encrytped Backups
  • Restore to AWS and Azure VMs
  • Unattended backups

Cons

  • Dashboard layout
  • In-app help and assistance
  • Documentation!
  • Positive impact due to overall cost of the product;
  • No expectation of rising values over time
  • ROI was exceeded 300% since Veeam's inception
In all honesty, we use BOTH Veeam and Synology Active Backup as part of our backup solution; each has it's strengths and both work very well together. As there is no additional cost to use both, we are very satisfed with the variety.

Did Veeam Data Platform live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Veeam Data Platform go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Veeam Data Platform again?

Yes

Veeam is particularily well suited when you have a single point of failure, in our case a single, large server running VMWare ESXi and housing our main Windows Guest, as well as various other application VMs. Additionally, not wanting to pay for cloud storage or backup, but keep an immutable backup off-site at a connected site, while also having a high-speed data backup at the main site. The setup was fairly straightforward, and works very well!
