Veeam DR
What do you like best about the product?
The speed and ease of the Veeam DR process.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not too much to dislike about a DRaaS solution that assists you in conducting DR processes with minimal interaction.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems that we solved with Veeam DRaaS were those that were slow, unpredictable and had many process steps to take in order to recover.
Solid product. Easy to install and configure. Less so to troubleshoot.
What do you like best about the product?
It works. If you just want basic backups, you can install this vanilla out of the box and be good to go. If you want to get under the covers and do more advanced things, you have the PowerShell cmdlets available to you.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is not always intuitive when looking into operational issues. Troubleshooting operational issues can be challenging
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
business continuity, in a simple solution

The data restore can take a long time to restore based on option you choose to backup. Choose carefully.

What do you dislike about the product?
The performance of hot-add disks during backup and/or replication sometimes isn't the greatest, but much of that blame is actually on the storage.
I do find that occasionally my jobs take longer than they should and don't update their progress bar unless I leave the job and come back.
I also don't like the fact that very rarely, when a job falls apart it can fail to remove the snapshots and leave way too much of a footprint on your datastore(s).

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Veeam for VM backups and replication to an offsite datacenter. It allows us to have pretty good confidence in the quality of our backups and replicated VMs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's probably going to be tough to beat. They just introduced a Linux agent too, which will help plenty of people. I plan to deploy it on my Linux guests within the next 3 to 6 months to gain file-level granularity and exclusions, etc.
Easy and reliable
What do you like best about the product?
Veeam is easy to setup and to maintain. You can configure pretty much everything and setup some automation with cli.
Highly recommended

What do you dislike about the product?
I think it can be quite expensive. Snapshots for backups can freeze vms and apps
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automation of backups.
