    Hello :smileyhappy:

    we protect our virtual infrastructure using veeam 6.5 but want to evaluate other backup solutions.

    We have good experience with Veeam and PHD.

    Backup Infrastructure: Multiple Location/vCenter, vSphere 5.1, ~ 2500 VMs, vCloud

    Here is a list of of potential Backup Apps i am currently working on..

    VMWare Certified 5.1Deduplication/CompressionCBTInstant RestoreFull Restore VM & FLR Simple Management vCloud support
    VDPxxxx               x   (Appliance)
    vRangerx      x **x ABMxx               x   (Appliance)
    AppAssurexxxxx
    unitrendsxxxxx               x   (Appliance)

    Do you recommend any other Backup product beside Veeam and PHD to expand my list ? :-))

    Thanks, uxmax

    Just out of curiosity:

    I’m wondering why you’re thinking about switching from Veeam to the other backup vendors. Are there any strong reasons behind this decision? Or may be problems that make you think regarding the said switch?

    I’m asking since I have been a Veeam customer for many years, and the product has always met my backup/replication requirements. And it even got better with the release of version 7.

    Cheers.
