Veeam Backup & Replication
Overall Satisfaction with Veeam Data Platform
VEEAM provides a number of critical uses to our agency. First, it acts as a backup agent to backup critical machines on a scheduled basis. If these jobs don't complete or complete with errors I am notified. Second, VEEAM creates replicas for critical virtual machines so that in a failure of a host machine, the replica can be quickly failed over and put in use. WHen the original host is restored the replica can be restored back to the original. VEEAM also works very well as a migration tool to move VM's to new hosts.
Pros
- Notification of pass / fail on replication and back ups.
- Native cloud backups and backups to tape
- Ease of restoring replicas back to original hosts
- malware detection
Cons
- Difficult to initially configure cloud based backups. instructions hard to follow or did not match actual look of software
- Help files are often circular or difficult to follow steps
- Cloud based support is separate for normal VEEAM team causing some confusion.
- as our infrastructure has grown more complicated, VEEAM has allowed us to manage backups and recovery with less reliability on tape backups.
- Success / failure is an automated report received daily, saving time reviewing logs.
- Migration of VM's to new servers is accomplished 75% faster and can be scripted in advance.
