Backup 3.0 “We tried for several months to get a competing product to work, investing a lot of time and money in the process. That product brought our system to a crawl, and backups failed 75% of the time. Our environment is almost 100% virtualized, so we need a backup system we can rely on. We switched to Veeam Backup, and we’re very happy with it. Nothing else in the virtualization space offers comparable functionality and reliability.” - Kim Byram, Director, Business and Information Systems, ISCO Industries
