We performed a comparison between Dell NetWorker and Veeam Backup & Replication 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."There are no problems in terms of stability."
"The backup capabilities and the automatization of the backup - along with the potential to make the back up on a virtual machine - are the solution's most valuable aspects."
"The solution offers compatibility with many types of database systems. It is one of the largest backup solutions. Additionally, it gives important information about data domain systems with deduplication."
"I feel that it is a good product."
"Dell EMC NetWorker is scalable."
"The standout feature of Dell NetWorker is its expertise in handling our VMware environment."
"Very user-friendly with a good interface."
"The feature that offers the greatest benefits in ensuring data integrity is its backup capability."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is a scalable solution."
"The data backup replication has been the most useful feature. Previously, we copied the data hub to an external hard drive but now we are able to store the backup on one of the depository service."
"Veeam is the gold standard for backup and recovery. The ease of use and reliability of this solution are real assets. Also, it has an ease of use to work with a third party vendor."
"The direct SAN backup feature perfectly integrates with our 3PAR storage infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup & Replication is the ease of use."
"The backup and replication capabilities are quite good."
"Most of the features that we can use with HPE products are directly integrated with the Veeam. This is very important for the customers to have only one pane of glass to manage the backups and also use the HPE products for the backups."
"For virtualization it's perfect."
"The licensing rules are difficult to navigate and understand."
"I would like to see the user interface improved, more documentation, faster support, and it could be easier to configure."
"We would like support for tape space reclaim, using either the same or another pool."
"Regarding improvements for NetWorker, I believe implementing cross-platform restore functionality is essential. This feature would allow for compatibility with various backup software solutions, similar to Veeam."
"It is a little buggy at times, which is the only thing that I dislike about this product."
"They need more support for image backups."
"The implementation process could be improved."
"The data storage capabilities should be improved."
"The replication process is very slow. It takes too long to replicate a virtual machine."
"We're using both Backup and Replication, Veeam Cloud Connect, and Veeam Office 365. What I am missing is a good graphical user interface between these three products."
"I cannot recall coming across any features that were lacking."
"It is always nice to get products cheaper."
"The interface and cluster environments could be improved in the future as presently they are using agent interface instead of user interface. Also, the backup for the Oracle WAC environment can be improved."
"It could use DR features similar to Zerto."
"I only ever found one error. It was when we were doing a file copy job. After using it for ten minutes, it would slow down and cause a bottleneck error."
"In the past, Veeam had a host-based license, but now it will be part of Microsoft's core license. I don't like this licensing model. Host-based licensing is better for my system. Maybe so other organizations prefer the core-based."
