Highly Recommended: Veeam Backup for AWS
We were early adopters of Veeam Backup for AWS version 1.0, and have since upgraded to version 2.0. It was relatively easy to setup and configure with some excellent tech support from Veeam. As users of the traditional Veeam BU&R product for VMware, the AWS product has an extremely familiar look and feel. There are four features of the product that we have found to be exceptionally useful: (1) the ability to automatically include EC2 instances based upon associating instance tags with backup policies; (2) the ability to accurately model storage and network charges; (3) the ability to test backup policies and their permissions; (4) the interoperability of the of the traditional and AWS products. I recommend it highly for anyone running on AWS EC2
