Find out in this report how the two Deduplication Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."They are the best support that we have had so far. When you contact or email them, they are very quick to respond. They always have someone available for us. That's what we want as a customer, we want someone to listen to us."
"Most important is its ease of use. You plug it in, follow the steps, and you have your backup file."
"The main feature we like about Barracuda is that we can map devices directly to the cloud. It operates as a security device to run a backup of the cloud in case one of our physical machines goes down."
"Its interface is intuitive, and it is easy to use when I am restoring files. Barracuda does a really excellent job at compression, which makes it very efficient. Eight years later, I am only halfway through to the capacity, which is very good."
"Whenever you have a crash or your service is not working, you can just live-boot the machine and have your service up and running."
"The superior support from Barracuda in setting up, using, and helping with issues for the product."
"The most important feature in Barracuda Backup is the ability to archive the backup of emails."
"The configuration and the onboarding process are pretty good."
"The reporting is very good compared to other tools."
"The utilization of Data Domain is crucial because of its integration with a key Veritas feature: retention lock. This feature ensures data integrity by preventing any alterations to stored data. When NetBackup interacts with Data Domain, enabling the retention lock feature ensures that neither administrators nor backup personnel can modify data stored within the system. This functionality is vital for compliance purposes and meets the requirements of auditors."
"The NetBackup appliance features customized software that is designed for storage."
"It has a lot of very good features. The virtual tape library (VTL) feature is most valuable. Overall, it is easy to use."
"The documentation is okay. You are able to follow it and it is helpful."
"It’s quite scalable."
"There are a lot of new features that operate to protect the data from ransomware attacks. They launched the Veritas/Appliances to protect our data. Veritas has been doing its job well."
"The standout feature is its connectivity and robust support. They are easily easy to get hold of, making it convenient for us."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see cloud support and deduplication functionality."
"Barracuda Backup could use some more integration."
"Barracuda works great for smaller network environments, which are not that complex. It is hardware-based with a Linux core, which you don't have access to, and a lot of stuff happens on the back-end. Even from a troubleshooting perspective, it is a bit challenging."
"The solution is pretty expensive. This is the usual customer complaint."
"It is not always stable."
"Its speed can be a bit improved, and of course, its pricing can go a lot cheaper."
"I would like to see the automatic backup of critical applications to the cloud."
"I would like to see better integration with third-party applications."
"It would be a better solution if we were able to make more reports in regards to the backup system."
"The solution could improve by providing more integration and security."
"Technical support for this solution needs to be improved."
"Sometimes, the user interface doesn't work smoothly."
"The reporting feature can be improved."
"The challenge arose due to a space issue. The issue was related to disk breaks, especially when power cuts occurred. One of the disks would break, leading to a loss of functionality."
"They need to make the licensing more clear. They should give all of the licensing details for the portals and be more clear. I have accidentally purchased the incorrect license because it's not clear."
"We had some problems with the backup of the physical server."
