Reliable backup solution with a terrible interface

  • December 10, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best feature is the ability to create complex backup plans with multiple base backups with daily or hourly incrementals.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is awful. There appear to be at least three ways to create backups under different tabs and sections. It is almost impossible to figure out how to restore a single file or an entire drive in an emergency.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am backing up multiple internal and customer systems at two locations. We have been able to quickly recover from deleted files and crashed hard drives.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Become acquainted with the user interface before committing to this product. Backups work well and are reliable. However, in an emergency it is difficult to find the right place to go to restore a file or folder.

Poor interface. Miss BackupExec 2010

  • December 05, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Compression rate is good. Speed is adequate for the amount we backup on a weekly basis.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface design looks like a 5th grader did it. Poorly designed and difficult to get to items that should be readily accessible
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Backups and restores are the only problems this solves.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Unless you like complex administration avoid it. TSM is ahead of then.

Veritas Backup Exec does a great job at backing up and restoring data.

Good backup application with just a little bit of quirkiness

  • November 16, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate that Backup Exec has continued to expand the types of media that it can use as backup destination. I also appreciate the fact that Backup Exec is fairly intuitive compared to other backup applications I have used previously.
What do you dislike about the product?
Backup Exec can sometimes be a bit quirky. Backups should for the most part be a set it and forget it type scenario (other than swapping out backup media.). But for some reason, everything would be going fine for awhile and then out of the blue, a job would fail. A little TLC and things would be OK for a bit and then another failure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since we have moved to a mostly virtualized server environment, we no longer use Backup Exec for the bulk of our backups, but we still continue to use for for a few physical computers. For these systems, the setup and use is very straight forward.

Backup I can trust?

  • November 14, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the easy to use backup features of VBE but had issues with the restore capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that I have been unable at times to connect to the cloud and restore time was longer than expected which is why we had to change to a different system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am working with a database of guest teaches and placement in schools in the Denver area.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I do not recommend Veritas Backup Exec.
