### "Excellent backup solution for any SMB"

July 28, 2017

5.0

Very fast recovery time for any DR solution.

Pros

The biggest pros of this backup solution is its diversity of platform which it can backup. Based on the license bought you can backup any VmWare or Hyper-V virtual machine but it also features a client that can be installed on any platform and can do the file level backup. The coolest feature is the restore where you can using the client do the restore within the machine itself and go back to all available restore points and have many version of the same file that you want to restore. It supports the backup of the SQL databases within the VM itself and it is also prefer for the backup of Microsoft Exchange as it can pull out for example only the desired email from any specific mailbox which is a big plus.

Cons

The solution it self is not cheap but it is justified with the professional support who, except contacting you via the email, also gives you a phone call if they dont get the replay from you any time soon. Other con is that it really requires a lot of HDD space, but then it is an enterprise level backup solution so this is self understandable.

### "Tried and True Local Backup"

June 15, 2022

4.0

Veeam worked as expected and did its job flawlessly. It is a bit of an older paradigm, but it works. If you need a straight-forward solution for on-prem backups, Veeam is great.

Pros

Worked seamlessly with VMWare integration. The ability to do file-level recovery on backup snapshots was superb.

Cons

The UI is a bit dated and clunky. I would suggest a new UI/UX redesign from Veeam.

### "Has lots of capabilities"

September 25, 2020

4.0

The Suite of products from Veeam are great and work well. As we've migrated from mostly in-premise to the cloud, we have continued to use other products in the suite for business continuity and disaster recovery. Veeam has always worked well with multiple products.

Pros

Can backup Office365, Azure, and AWS instances. Very easy to use and setup. Restores are quick and easy to schedule.

Cons

Can only use limited types of storage on the backend. Can be difficult to do the inisital backups, especially if you have a lot of data in the cloud already.

### "Veeam Backup"

July 26, 2022

4.0

A very excellent experience, the program helped me to make periodic backups in a fully automatic manner and with various recovery options, previously I had to make a backup manually.

Pros

The program is full of great features But for me, the most important feature that I liked very much is the cumulative automatic backup feature You can customize the time, place, and size of copies and the number of copies Also, the possibility of merging new changes without the need to make a full backup

Cons

Throughout the time I used the application, I had no issues or drawbacks.

### "Top shelf enterprise backup and recovery solution"

February 27, 2018

5.0

Pros

The ease of use of this product suite is OUTSTANDING. By far the quickest to learn and use of any of the many different solution we have tried out over the years. This one is the keeper. Scheduling and chaining of jobs works like a charm. So little overhead in managing the backups and recovery.

Cons

If I were to point to anything it would be the lack of integration with Dell SAN systems, but I'm sure that will be sorted in a future release.

### "A competent VMWare focused backup suite"

March 31, 2018

4.0

Veeam is an excellent DR tool with good native understanding of application specific backup items. Works great for backups with no more than 60 or so copies.

Pros

First party tools for native understanding of application items, such as exchange, active directory, SQL, SharePoint, etc. These work very well Backups are reliable and simple to setup.

Cons

No legal/compliance copies. Not a great tool for long term archival, really works better with shorter retention times.

Intelligent and automated installation. Detected NAS/SAN device without intervention. Backup setup easy and straightforward.

### "Veeam has a been a very great addition to our team. Very easy to setup and use."

September 18, 2017

5.0

Easy to perform backups. Easy to restore from backups. Easy to implement software and servers. My old backup system was hard to restore from and would take awhile. Veeam is quick to restore from backup.

Pros

Very easy to one click and spin up a backup if a server dies. I also love how if you need more space you can very simply attach storage.

Cons

some updates are not as easy to preform as stated. Sometimes when running updates its not as straight forward as they said.
