We performed a comparison between Dell NetWorker and NetApp Cloud Backup based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Dell EMC NetWorker integrates well with our domain and the performance is quite good on-premise. We receive approximately 1 terabyte within one hour."
"The GUI is user-friendly."
"NetWorker's most valuable feature is recovery, including the policy-based backups that can be configured."
"The extensive information provided on tool properties has been very useful, specifically the information on databases"
"The solution is simple to understand."
"This solution is really the best in the market! After evaluating other solutions, we automatically decided to use this one."
"Technical support is good."
"The best feature of Dell EMC NetWorker is its wide spectrum of available plugins for each and every software that you can back up, such as SAP HANA, Oracle, AXI-based machines, or Dell-based machines. Whatever you want to back up, you can do it with Dell EMC NetWorker. It is a very solid backup software. It is the oldest backup software from EMC, and it comes from Dell EMC's legacy."
"NetApp Cloud Backup performance is good and they have beneficial technology."
"One feature that works well for us is that the Cloud Manager is a completely agentless solution. There's a similar dashboard on both the versions for on-premises and the cloud, and with reference to the Cloud Manager, it's a little faster because there's nothing to be installed as such. Being agentless, it doesn't require any agent to be deployed on the targets where the backups are triggered."
"Scalability is very good."
"The price could be cheaper."
"The stability of the NMC could use some attention, as it tends to be a bit shaky during jobs and other operations."
"Support is definitely an area of concern because of the time it takes to resolve our issues."
"Currently, the NetWorker server only supports the Windows server bare-metal recovery, so an improvement would be built-in support for Linux and UNIX BMR."
"The deduplication needs improvement and it could use better integration."
"The UI needs some enhancement to be more user-friendly."
"The user interface is hard to use, it should be simplified. There are a lot of web-based management interfaces which they should consider."
"I haven't had a good experience with technical support. It takes them a very long time to resolve issues."
"One area that can be improved is around how we define the different KPIs. In particular, the business KPIs. I have my own in-house application for the business KPIs, so for example, with our policies around retention, which is a period of seven years, I have to read these parameters from other applications and I need them to integrate well."
"Integration and reporting could be improved."
"NetApp Cloud Backup could improve by being easier to use. Veeam solution is easier to use."
