"If you don't use it, you should."
5/5
What do you like best about Veeam Data Platform?

I can confidently know my RTO can be met using instant recovery features. The flexibility of platforms, authentication methods, & security-minded approach to backup are really unparralleled. I've used many back up platforms over 25 years of my career. Veeam is the only one I trust. The ease of use an intuitive nature of the GUI are all best in class in my opinion. Veeam is the 800 lb gorilla to beat in the industry. I pull backups almost constantly and my Veeam server is the hardest working server on my network.

Implementation is easy, pushing and updating clients is easy. The Linux client actually works very well compared to others.

I also use Veeam to back up my cloud environments, the ease of integration with cloud platforms is just as easy as everything else you can do in Veeam. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Veeam Data Platform?

I have really don't have any problems. If I do their customer support has gotten me fixed quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"New to Veeam Data Cloud - Use Veeam's Onboarding Team"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Veeam Data Platform?

Veeam Data Cloud was extremely simple to set up and use. However, I highly recommend taking the time to meet with the onboarding support team. Their guidance can be invaluable in ensuring you get the most out of the platform.

One key takeaway from our onboarding experience was the difference between fixed and dynamic licensing. We initially started with fixed licensing but quickly realized that dynamic licensing provided significantly more flexibility. With a quick email, our onboarding specialist switched us to dynamic licensing, which offers several advantages:

It allows you to exceed your allocated licenses temporarily and true up later.

It is the only way to ensure new users are automatically backed up.

With the fixed licensing model, new users must be added manually, which can become cumbersome as your organization grows.

So far, our test restores have worked well, reinforcing our confidence in the platform’s reliability.

We migrated to Veeam from another cloud backup provider, primarily due to pricing and familiarity. Veeam’s pricing is more competitive, and since we already use Veeam Backup & Replication, transitioning was seamless. Given our positive experience with Veeam’s support in the past, we expect the same high level of service with Veeam Data Cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Veeam Data Platform?

One minor drawback is that the interface can sometimes feel a bit slow, particularly when accessing restores. This is understandable given the sheer volume of data being processed—searching through 250 mailboxes for an item will naturally take some time. If this were a local install with local storage, I’d expect similar delays when working with large datasets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Veeam is a versatile software suite - a must for any virtualization platform!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Veeam Data Platform?

What I like most about the Veeam Data Platform suite is how versatile it is, beyond just backups, it can also help us to P2V conversions, disaster-recovery replication and orchestration, bare metal backup restores, V2V conversions (i.e. VMware to Hyper-V migrations, or on-prem to cloud) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Veeam Data Platform?

For companies with a large number of virtual machines, the phasing out of per CPU socket licensing in favor of per VM pricing has significantly increased the cost of ongoing ownership of the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good, Smooth, and Easy to use"
5/5
What do you like best about Veeam Data Platform?

The Veeam data plantform has been a very efficient system when it comes to restoring VM's for us in a HyperV environment. We have never had any issues with the data being there one we have triggered a restore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Veeam Data Platform?

The UI isn't always the clearest, it can sometimes take a little poking around to try to figure out where everything is when you need to do a restore. Make sure you take the time to document the steps before you are in a data restore incident. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cheap and technical backup product, which shows when deployed at scale"
1/5
What do you like best about Veeam Data Platform?

As product utilises S3 Cloud storage, which we can purchase considerably cheaper in blocks than providers can offer, it reduced backup costs by a large margin.

This also allowed us much more involvement in set-up of said storage, location for offsite backups, local backup storage targets etc. etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Veeam Data Platform?

The Cloud management console proved to be less than accurate, with failures reported for working backups, failing backups not reporting in, missing schedules, agents offline and no warnings, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
