Solve problems faster with topology views

Enhanced topology views of your storage network and compute environments give you deep insights into your Hyper-V and VMware infrastructures.

See critical relationships and dependencies between hardware and the virtualization layer, including VMs, operating systems and applications. Storage topology views show you exactly which VMs are running on specific storage resources so you can see all the services that could be affected if something goes wrong. You can drill down at any point for real-time data.

Avoid downtime and meet SLAs

If you run an Always-On Business, you can't allow performance or availability issues to affect production. Veeam's alert management and visualizations cut through the clutter to help identify root causes and proactively avoid issues. Once you've pinpointed a problem, you can link to a comprehensive Knowledge Base of articles to identify, troubleshoot and fix problems with recommendations and step-by-step instructions.

Achieve higher efficiencies and maximize ROI

Veeam plugs directly into the native System Center management consoles for in-depth analysis reports, right-sizing recommendations, pinpointing hotspots and bottlenecks and identifying root-causes. Veeam MP also integrates into System Center Service Manager, enabling CMDB, Incident Management and more.

Forecast and plan accurately

With Veeam, you have the data you need to justify strategic decisions, plans and budgets so you can meet your growing business needs. Capacity-planning reports let you examine trends, forecast resource needs, use “What-if” modeling and track any over-commitment of resources in your VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V environments. You can even project the resources you’ll need to move from on-premises workloads to VMware vCloud Air or Microsoft Azure so you can run a hybrid cloud environment.
