Veeam Backup for Azure is a much easier product to setup and configure vs other options we've used in the past, the initial install and setup is very straight forward and the interface to manage on-going backups and settings isn't confusing either.

Veeam allows much more flexibility in scheduling backup jobs, It also allows you to copy backups to an on prem server or another cloud if you wanted to, it also allowed you to restore Azure VMs on premise or to another cloud.

The other products we considered had higher overall costs and appeared to offer less functionality/customisation. We had also experienced reliability issues with one of the other products so did not have confidence it would provide a suitable backup and DR solution.

Veeam is the best tool i have seen because of how well it works natively with azure but also with my on prem datacenter. I think its the best tool in the industry.

It is much faster, easier to use, has multiple scale out repositories that are immutable. Azure backup works but it is slow when processing backups, and restoring backups. It is not flexible compared to Veeam.

When migrating from on Prim to AWS then to AZure the process was a little challenging because of some of the way we configured up front but once we went from AWS to Azure it was no looking back. We didn't have the extra storage to move things around like most companies to but it worked out great and we were also able to store more cold backups on Azure due to the low cost of cold storage.

Cons
No answers on this topic
  • Documentation around service account permissions was a little sparse when we implemented it
  • It's sometimes hard to get the reason behind a (rare) job failure without going into logs
  • The UI around snapshots and backups could do with some clarity around the restore points that will be available

Still clunky compared to the on-prem version but getting better with every release. It does what it needs to do, and does it well. They are stuck with some limitations in the way Azure works so I don't know how much better they can make it but they've just added 365 backup management all from the same pane so it seems they're not done yet.

Backup Exec was a very clunky application and took forever to backup to and restore from. We would backup to SSD external hard drives from a flash array, but the process still took forever to finish. Sending our data to the Azure blob storage via Veeam is a faster and more secure process than saving to the external hard drives with Backup Exec.

No answers on this topic
  • We have had fast recovery of documents when needed; sub 10 minutes from start of restore to complete and in the users hands
  • Easily a value add for backing up files outside of the given Microsoft retention period; piece of mind
  • Easy tool to use with minimal training required to use it and set up backups
  • When you do change your cloud licensing it does require manual intervention to update backup data requirements. if the business makes changes then your backup person may not know to make these changes
