Snapshots can be used to create quicker Recovery Time Objectives
(RTOs) and more aggressive Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs). When
testing crash consistent backups, NetBackups snapshot technology
backed up 1,000 virtual machines in less than 9 minutes while Veeam
required over 18 minutes.

Lower times are better when it comes to backup windows.
NetBackup saves you hours, especially in large-scale environments.
As the environment scaled from 100 to 200, 400 and then 1,000
virtual machines, there were dramatic increases in the time
required by Veeam to perform the backups.
