Reliable, Fast, and Easy-to-Manage Backup Solution
What do you like best about the product?
Veeam Data Platform provides excellent reliability and flexibility for both on-premises and cloud backups. The interface is intuitive, and setup takes minimal time even for complex environments. I especially like the instant recovery and replication features — they make disaster recovery much faster and stress-free. Reporting and monitoring tools are also well-designed and easy to understand.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside is that initial storage configuration can be a bit tricky for new users, and licensing could be more transparent. Also, the console sometimes feels heavy when managing large-scale infrastructures, but performance is still acceptable once configured properly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Veeam Data Platform has helped us achieve reliable, automated backups for both virtual and physical environments. Before using it, backup failures and recovery times were a constant challenge. Now, backups run smoothly, restores are fast, and we have clear visibility into the status of all jobs. It also simplifies compliance reporting and ensures our critical systems are always protected. This has reduced downtime and improved overall business continuity.
Comprehensive Review of Veeam Backup & Replication
What do you like best about the product?
What I appreciate most about Veeam Data Platform is its dependable and adaptable approach to data backup and recovery. The platform integrates smoothly with virtual, physical, and cloud environments, making it much easier to manage hybrid infrastructures. Its instant recovery capabilities and support for immutable backups offer reassurance against data loss and help protect against ransomware threats.
What do you dislike about the product?
Veeam Data Platform offers a high level of reliability, but new users may find the initial setup and configuration process somewhat complex. Additionally, certain features require extra licensing, which can complicate cost management, especially in larger environments. While the console interface is robust, it could benefit from a more intuitive design to facilitate quicker navigation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Veeam Data Platform enables us to safeguard our essential workloads across virtual, physical, and cloud environments through one unified solution. It addresses challenges such as data loss, downtime, and vulnerability to ransomware by providing dependable backup, instant recovery, and immutable storage. As a result, our business continuity has greatly improved, our recovery times have decreased, and we are better able to comply with data protection policies.
Data resilience and mobility enhance operations with effective automation and support
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features in Veeam Data Platform are data resilience and data mobility.
In assessing the platform's ransomware protection, I find Veeam's immutability feature very valuable.
Regarding their role in policy-driven data management, I find that the data qualification within the backup jobs is quite sufficient. At the customer side, we speak about backing up Hyper-V data and unstructured data, and this is mainly what the Veeam Data Platform is focused on. Therefore, this is quite well integrated.
What needs improvement?
The licensing model is currently in improvement, and changing from instance license to Veeam Universal License is a great step. Further improvements could include the logging functionality, which I think should be more granularly adjustable, but in this case, it can be improved anytime.
Regarding additional features expected in the next release to make it even better, most parts are on the way, and the AI integration should be improved.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been dealing with Veeam products for almost eight to nine years.
How are customer service and support?
I would rate their technical support eight or nine out of ten. The escalation from first, second to third tier is sometimes very long-lasting, but the resolve rate is quite high.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
Regarding the initial setup and configuration, I find it straightforward and it should not be more simplified because users are able to back up most environments within minutes. This is one big advantage of Veeam Data Platform.
What other advice do I have?
Their pricing is reasonable.
The advanced analytics, which are part of the Veeam ONE portfolio, are not currently productively used in optimizing backup operations.
In my assessment of the automation features of Veeam Data Platform, it is greatly usable if implemented correctly, but currently in the customer environment, it is not being used. We have to use the built-in REST API functionality to automate the workflows at the customer side specific to the customer environment. The REST API functionality of both platforms, Veeam Backup & Replication and Veeam for 365, is greatly improved over the last years and almost fully usable for automation.
On a scale of one to ten, I rate Veeam Data Platform a nine.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Veeam Data Platform is incredibly reliable for backups and fast recovery. The intuitive interface, strong ransomware protection, and seamless support for hybrid and cloud environments make it a top choice for data protection. Scalable, secure, and easy to manage.

Setup requires some planning, but once configured, it runs smoothly. The platform is reliable enough that we don't need to interact with it daily—just monitor and adjust as needed. Customer Support is excellent and the Integration of this product is very easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Veeam helps us protect critical workloads with reliable backups and fast recovery. It solves our need for secure, centralized data protection across on-prem and cloud environments, giving us peace of mind and reduced downtime.
