What do you dislike about the product?
The new feature on NAS backup has limitation on the backup size quota. This can be eliminated to give full protection to on premise deployments where the storage capacity is managed by the organization
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During the earlier version, we were facing slower backups and with less speed. With excellent technical support and guidance from VEEAM team, we have overcome this issue and achieved much higher backup speed by fine tuning the implementation and on premise infrastructure capabilities. This enabled us to reduce the backup intervals and minimize the data loss in case of any disaster. While replicating to the DR, the latency was higher and reduced the backup speed and with optimized / enhanced DR site connectivity, our DR backup has also significantly faster.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Identify the RPO, RTO and Offsite / DR backup, Database or application constraints, if any to be addressed, replication to Fail-over /DR site, Storage capacity and number of years retention requirements in advance to have a clear vision, strategy for the solution deployment
Product is excellent and choose the right implementation partner with clear understanding & agreement of the implementation scope to avoid any rework affecting performance issues, backup Quality and any other issues.

Veeam is my prefered backup solution.
What do you like best about the product?
I've used Veeam since back in the mid 2000's in one form or another. It's progressively gotten better and better. Additionally, the new rollback feature is stellar as is being able to test in a test environment outside of production.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't much. Mostly small nit picks like the job delete and edit button are right beside each other in the right click menu although there is a confirmation prompt so you don't accidentally delete a job but they're still a little close for comfort. I also would like a way to delete backup chains from within the B&R console rather than in the raw data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aside from reconfiguration here and there it really makes my backups pretty automatic especially with Surebackup making sure my backups are going to actually work should I need them. I am able to set different retention periods for different servers so more important jobs can be run more often to minimize the amount of lost data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Veeam is easy to configure but in the effort to only do it once, learn more of the features and everything going in and you'll be further ahead.

What do you like best about the product?

Veeam B&R v10
What do you like best about the product?
Nice GUI, works fantastic and is very reliable. It is very easy to troubleshoot and find solution in case of error. Saved our work many times.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is very hard to find what is bad with this software, maybe that our Endpoints stopped working when upgrading central console untill update of them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have restored from single files to complete vm, very njce feature is instant recovery.
Best VM backup solution on the Planet
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use. Top notch support. It just works without any of the hassle that the competition's products have. It's reasonably priced and is constantly refined.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much. Sometimes there are growing pains during bigger upgrades but never to a point that will totally break my configurations. Fails could have better descriptions and information about what caused the fails, but nothing serious.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
None at this time. Using a newer backup to tape option for archiving was a bit troublesome but it's since been resolved.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't waste time looking elsewhere. If you have a primarily virtual platform, whether on-site or SaaS based nothing comes close. Competitors will tell you how great they are. Try them out. Use the trials. You'll find yourself ending up with Veeam. Backups will no longer be a hassle. You'll be able to spend more time on other projects and tasks because it just works. It;s the best VM solution on the market, by far. Try it out. It's great.
Excellent Backup and Recovery System
What do you like best about the product?
The additional functionality of the system has made it an all in one shop for backups, recovery, and monitoring of systems. In using the system having the integration with not only the virtual systems but physical systems when in the past they were separate.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I was first setting up the system I could not get the communication going properly but was able to figure out the issue and get the system functioning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I am in the process of rebuilding our server environment I have been able to recover entire VM's back to working order in a short period of time while still maintaining the backups.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is one of the best and easiest tools to ensure that your backups are done and done right. As they improve the software leaps and bounds with each iteration, I will always recommend VEEAM for the solution to backup critical servers and systems.
Veeam Saved My Bacon
What do you like best about the product?
Reliability, reporting, options available, OUTSTANDING support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Paying for licensing through a 3rd party vendor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1 - 2 - 3 backup of HyperVisor servers of varying ages & flavors, workstations, and file shares. Easy testing of backups to assure they work. Replication of Hyper-V servers in case of production failure (which is what lead me to Veeam).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend Veeam. When I couldn't figure out pieces of the configuration, their support team was there 100%, 7 days a week. As an essentially one-man IT operation that is critical for me.
I have not had any issues with VEEAM I have had to restore files from one of my disk with no issues
What do you like best about the product?
backing up and restoring is a breeze when using it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have really not found anything I dont like other than cost is a little high
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This has helped out when I had to change my exchange server to a new server and backing up made me feel secure if I failed the install
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are worried about having your servers or system fail, having this puts your mind at ease when issues arise
Super positive experience. Highly recommened
What do you like best about the product?
Veeam is very customer oriented. They help from the moment they are engaged. They thrive on customer satisfaction and success. Veeam was willing to help with multiple POCs and demonstrations in order to help leadership and the admin understand the product and how it fits into the environment for best results.
We are very satisfied with the Veeam virtual lab and the ability to stage backups and restores at ease.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at this time. We are in the early states of our implementation and everything has been positive thus far.
I would have been even more satisfied if the Veeam licencing was structured in such a way that it included 0365 backups. That is our next pain point that I believe Veeam will be able to tackle.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to implement a strong, readily available, and tested backup solution. Several cost benefits and usability items have already been addressed. We had a solution that unfortunately failed during a time that we needed it most. We were not able to readily test backups. Veeam has provided this solution and puts the organization at ease.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Understand you environment. Identify what your goal is. What do backups mean? How often do they need to be tested.
Easy, Great and full functionality
