This flexibility extends across VMware, Hyper-V, AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and Kubernetes, making it ideal for organizations with diverse infrastructures that need reliable cross-platform data management.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect of the Veeam Data Platform is its Comprehensive Ransomware Protection and Recovery features. In today’s cybersecurity landscape, the ability to protect backups from ransomware attacks is essential. Veeam’s approach combines immutability, Secure Restore, and malware scanning within backup workflows, which gives it a proactive edge in preventing malicious data corruption or loss.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Utilize Continuous Data Protection (CDP) for Mission-Critical Apps: If your organization has applications that cannot afford downtime or data loss, Veeam’s CDP feature is an excellent way to achieve near-zero RPOs.

What differentiates Veeam Data Platform from other similar products?

There’s this sense that Veeam was built with virtual machines in mind, and it shows. It doesn’t just handle backups; it handles them with a level of reliability that makes it feel like your data is always safe.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I’ve had moments where critical data was accidentally deleted, but with Veeam, you can restore a VM in no time, and the interruption is minimal.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The reporting tools feel clunky. They get the job done, but they’re not as intuitive or visually appealing

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It’s one thing to know you’ve got backups, but practice using those backups in real scenarios—it’s saved me more than once from scrambling in an actual emergency.

Trustworthy
Efficient Service

Pros

Feature Ratings Average rating of all product features, some of which may not be shown below

Virtual Machine Backup Automatically discovers and protects VMs as they come online, move, and change. Production VMs are replicated to a secondary data store.

Backup Automation Solution automates backup, recovery and remediation tasks using RestAPI and CLI to integrate with 3rd party solutions, reduce cost and enforce standards.

Replication for Long Term Storage and Disaster Recovery Onsite backup data is replicated and stored to a public cloud (AWS, Azure). Can also include restore-to-cloud capabilities for Disaster Recovery as a Service.

Replication for High Availability Beyond secondary copy backup, the solution also manages replication of primary data host-to-host and site-to-site for live failover and high availability.

Deduplication Implementation Deduplication of redundant data blocks is implemented by the solution. Deduplication can be at source, target, or globally (source and target).

File Explorer Granular Restore Individual files can be located and restored from backup media without the need for full system mounting and restore.

Backup Monitoring and Reporting Backup and replication are continually monitored for status and effectiveness. Detailed reporting is available on successful and unsuccessful operations.

Physical Backup for Multiple Platforms Backs up data and system info for non-virtualized systems. Primarily Windows and Linux servers but also, potentially, AIX, Unix and others.

Integration With Storage Arrays Integrates with APIs from major storage vendors (NetApp, HP, Dell EMC) to leverage capabilities in these arrays such as data snapshots and replication.

Automated Backup Testing and Verification Goes beyond monitoring whether backup jobs completed by verifying the integrity of data restoration.

Application Awareness Application consistent backup and granular restore for application data from core applications such as MS SQL, Oracle, MS Exchange, MS SharePoint.
