Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Security tools: Being able to monitor data going in and coming off our endpoints. Seeing what it is and where it's going is awesome."
"It has quite a bit of flexibility in configuring backup sets."
"The solution is very stable. Very rarely do we have any issues with it. We don't have to deal with bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. We find it to be reliable."
"Risk factors can be adjusted for all intricate details."
"Backup and recovery have been great, but I love having the ability to keep the hybrid type build which they offer."
"It had the ability to preseed by sending in a data drive and could restore by sending the user a data drive."
"Code42 Next-Gen DLP is scalable."
"Works in the background and users are able to perform restores."
"Good user interface."
"Regarding technical support, if one has the entire enterprise support, I would rate it a nine out of ten...Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten."
"The solution is mostly stable."
"The software-defined ability to do data reduction through deduplication and compression, as well as being able to replicate data to a cloud container."
"The deduplication and compression features are the most valuable features."
"The solution is not complex, it's very easy to configure agents or VM backup and restore. Upgrades from one version to another are very fast and the product is very stable."
"Replication processes with container storage pools allow reduction of storage space and network bandwidth, using deduplication and compression."
"You can scale the product."
"There doesn't seem to be any feature that is lacking."
"More security would be nice, I would love to be able to remotely brick a stolen laptop and it's hard disk drive (HDD)."
"You can't always filter out data that you'd like to."
"In a couple of instances, we had a little bit of trouble in getting it distributed throughout the organization. We ultimately managed to do it, but they talk about it being a pretty simple process, and it became a little laborious. It would just turn away. The agents were not being distributed. It was just churning and churning and churning. When we were looking for specific categories of data, it was getting bogged down, but that was not even so much Code42, although some of it was their issue."
"Reporting could use an overhaul. It is very limited."
"Java, please get rid of Java."
"Due to recent changes that effectively abandoned an entire segment of their user base, I no longer trust nor can recommend Code42 products."
"I think one we can improve is the compression."
"I would love to see something which allows us to do an auto restart of backup jobs."
"The user interface (UI) for the admin is still not good. It is way too complicated to manage the product, as we still need to use command line. IBM launched the Operations Center (OC), but there are still functions lacking, especially since we cannot manage all our scheduled tasks by using the GUI."
"My customers are not always happy with the Level 1 support. Sometimes, it just takes too long for the response to come, which is probably something that needs to be addressed."
"Any feature that is compliant with virtualizing the application should be improved."
"Sometimes we experience trouble with the backup transfer of the control files."
"Technical support could be improved."
"For Spectrum Protect Plus, I would like to see more enhanced reporting features and integration with Spectrum Protect."
"Integration with some applications in the healthcare field could be added, as that is a big part of our business."
