Great Backup And Recovery Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Veeam Data Platform continues to lead with intelligent, resilient, and flexible data protection. The new AI capabilities—especially Veeam Intelligence and MCP integration—are game-changers, giving teams actionable insights and contextual access to their backups. Expanded hypervisor and platform support (like Proxmox and MongoDB), cloud-native enhancements, and investment from Microsoft reinforce future growth. On the security front, proactive malware detection, SIEM/YARA integration, and immutability safeguards fortify ransomware readiness. Plus, the Hardened Repo ISO 2.0 brings enterprise-class resilience and deployment ease. The implementation of this product is very easy. We are using it frequently for our daily usage.
What do you dislike about the product?
Veeam Data Platform is robust and intelligent—but there's room to elevate. Native support for clustered database environments (e.g., PostgreSQL/MySQL clusters) is still missing, limiting adoption in hybrid landscapes. The licensing and pricing structure can be difficult to navigate, with sudden cost escalations adding budgetary strain. UI/UX improvements are overdue—users crave more streamlined scheduling, built-in reports (like space usage trends), and simplified workflows. Customer experience is mixed: support often feels slow or generic, and sales handling—especially during renewals—has been hit by responsiveness gaps. On security, while patches are released, critical vulnerabilities remind us that timely mitigation and communication are key.

A tool that offers scalability and stability along with simplicity
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
Veeam Data Platform reduced the RPO. In our company, one of the network monitoring systems is working on the DR side for some reason, which may be because of some problem with the IP provider, but we just managed to restore it from the replication on our main data system and data center, after which we got the system running in a few minutes. My company doesn't use the tool too much, though we use it in case we need to recover some data, which happened only a few times, after which the tool has been running smoothly. It is a great product.
What is most valuable?
There are no features of the product that I found to be specifically valuable to our company. I like the simplicity of the product. I like the overall product since it is a great tool that is available in the market.
Though I don't like the pricing model of the solution as it is constantly being made more and more expensive, it is a great product that my company likes.
What needs improvement?
Veeam Data Platform uses only a limited set of features. The product's pricing is an area of concern where improvements are required.
Our company will eventually renew the licenses, and then we will discuss internally the cost in the upcoming year because we don't have the time to switch to another solution. If my company gets a solution that does the same job as Veeam Data Platform for a lower price, then we may switch over to that product only because of pricing. Our company uses the tool for its features that allow for the backing up of virtual machines and SQL databases, so it is not a big deal to switch over to another solution since we don't have a very large system in that sense. My company only has around 15 to 20 virtual machines, so any tool that provides backup for the virtual machines and helps us with the replication to another location is okay for us.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Veeam Data Platform for a year or two. My company is a customer of Veeam. Currently, I use Veeam Backup & Replication v12.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
In our company, only two people use the solution.
The tool is used for its backup capabilities every two to three days. For some of the virtual machines in our company, the tool's backup capabilities are used every day while we only monitor the logs, during which, if there is something to be resolved, then we jump in and resolve it.
How are customer service and support?
I don't even remember if we faced any technical issues with the solution in our company, because of which we had to consider raising a ticket with the product's technical support team. In our region, there are some people with whom I was in touch, some of whom were and some still are Veeam employees, who are doing a great job and with whom our company is satisfied. Most of the consulting parts related to the solution were taken care of by our company with the help of the local people or technicians in the Adriatic region. The documentation part of the product is okay.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
The product's initial setup phase was easy to handle, and it was not a big deal. In our company, we will eventually install a tape library in backup within the next few months. In our company, we will have to figure out how the integration of Veeam Data Platform with a tape library needs to be done. From our company's experiences with Veeam Data Platform until now, we are happy and really satisfied with the product.
The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.
The solution can be deployed in a few days.
What about the implementation team?
I deployed the tool by myself without any training, and I felt it was very easy.
What was our ROI?
Though the tool is an expensive product, it is worth the money since it does the job.
In our company, we use the Veeam Data Platform for the protection of our data, especially if we get stuck with any malware or damage in our information system, but we don't have to face such scenarios. Our company uses the product as a backup of our data, so I don't see any ROI, to be honest. I hope that the tool's use in our company does not reach a point where we need to evaluate the return on investment. Presently, there is no return on investment, and it only involves costs for now.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The product is expensive.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I did not have to evaluate the other products in the market since I bought Veeam Data Platform owing to the fact that I knew some of the employees at Veeam in my region.
What other advice do I have?
In our company, we will introduce Veeam Data Platform as a backup for Office 365, with which we will reduce the total instances that we are protecting because we have already removed some virtual machines. After the aforementioned process is followed, we will eventually revise our license for backing up our data that is hosted on Office 365 platform, and then we will use even more features, after which we will know how that works. Basically, we are very happy with the solution. In our company, we don't even have upgrades to deal with since they are being taken care of very smoothly by Veeam.
I recommend the product to those who plan to use it, and I still recommend it to a lot of the people who use the community version of the tool, which is also great for small infrastructures.
I rate the overall tool a ten out of ten.
Extremely simple, natural and useful software for Backups and Recoveries
What do you like best about the product?
Veeam Data Platform is crazy simple and effective for backups and restoring stuff. As someone who's super into building mobile apps, I've gotten a lot of good use out of it. Setting up backups is easy peasy, and scheduling them to run automatically is clutch since I don't have to constantly baby sit. The portal makes checking on stuff smooth too and
What do you dislike about the product?
i dig how detailed but simple they make bringing back your data. Its been mad reliable for my workflow. But sometimes the app takes longer than I'd like to open up, especially if my WiFi is being sketchy. A little annoying when everything else is so smooth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Anyway Veeam's backup system has totally solved my data protection headaches. Knowing my app data is secure and I can grab it whenever I need to is a huge weight off my shoulders. I waste less time panicking about losing data, and get to focus more on building dope apps and innovating. It's made me way more productive.

Great tool for backup and DR
What do you like best about the product?
The compression and speed of backups with Veeam are unmatched in my experience. I've used multiple other backup products and have constantly been let down due to failures. Veeam has been very easy to implement and connect to backup environments. The documentation is very clear about port usage for secure environments so I was able to connect on the first try after a firewall config. I have used Veeam for over a decade and NEVER had a failure with restores or corruption of failed data. I've only needed support a few times and every time it's always a quick response and simple instructions to resolve. I also use the replication for a DR scenario and when testing it powers on the replica, re-IPs it and configures everything with a single click!
What do you dislike about the product?
It can get pricey but you do get what you pay for. The licensing is more complicated than it needs to be in my opinion. It may be because i'm grandfathered into the old way of licensing and they're trying to convert me to the new way but the new way is much more expensive for what I'm using it for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My company implemented Veritas NetBackup and it does not consistently backup our domain controllers to my liking and thus I don't trust it. I use Veeam for my DCs and have always had consistent, reliable backups.
I also have a remote DR site that Veeam replicates VMs to.

Veeam is a essential part of your IT toolbox
What do you like best about the product?
Veeam has a very robust software platform to meet the needs of large or small companies. I do know this as we have scaled from small to large and Veeam came right along. The software is easy to intergate and fully functional once implemented with minimal intervention. I would highly recommend this software to any IT professional needed more bandwith for backup and secure tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
Veeam has a bit of a learning curve. Althought Veeam knowledge base is vast, knowing what you need to know takes sometime. Veeam also provides live learning and documentation on the website. But to save time ask a Veeam support specialist to minimalize wasting time on features that are not needed for your company.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had no immutable source for our data back and online backup. We were able to implement Veeam and solve these missing pieces.
