"The most valuable feature of Acronis Backup is the data recovery and restoration details."
"It's a good solution that's very easy to use. Acronis has two valuable features. The first one is creating images, and the other is starting virtual machines in the cloud so the client can work immediately."
"One of the features I have found most valuable is the restore point - it gives us what we need at the time we need it. The important thing is that the backup for Acronis doesn't depend as much on the device."
"Our customers can backup to local storage and they can back up or replicate to the cloud."
"The web-based interface makes it easy to use."
"Consistency and reliability. The interface is easy to understand and consistent across applications. While not 100%, it is a very reliable backup solution."
"Universal Restore is valuable to us."
"The product provides good backup and compression services."
"This is a superior and reliable backup system that can handle large capacities with little management."
"The most valuable features of Dell PowerProtect DD are reduplication and compression. It provides a lot of data savings for backups. Additionally, the Dell PowerProtect DD solution offers a bundled backup software and storage option. If desired, users can also connect to cloud technology to create an additional copy of their data in the cloud. This solution supports synchronization with various cloud vendors, including Azure and AWS."
"It's very competitive in terms of the price and technology. Also, the development team continuously makes updates. The data reduction feature is very useful."
"It works within backup windows and has got good deduplication."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"Data Domain is an excellent repository that's compatible with a lot of different solutions. Even Veeam Backup recommends sending backup to Data Domain. Space optimization is great. Currently, it guarantees 50-to-1 compression of the application in the same device. In all these years, I never had a client who was unsatisfied with Data Domain. It is a solid appliance with VMware integration, instant access to restore and search, and analytics."
"I find the data to be most valuable."
"Some of the default settings out-of-the-box should already be set up for the novice user. For instance, the warnings that say a hard drive has bad sectors and stops the backup from performing."
"The support and documentation must be improved."
"They've got an agent to back up Microsoft SQL, to our Office 365, but there is not an agent to back up my SQL databases."
"This is not a feature-rich solution."
"If we could have a mass deployment option using Acronis, that would be helpful."
"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."
"We have issues with the SQL databases which are a little shaky."
"The pricing could be improved."
"The tool's DD Boost is expensive."
"The downside of PowerProtect's flexibility is that you have so many options. It can be a little confusing. It's like having a car with too many buttons on the dash. You can do so much with it, but it takes some time to learn what everything does."
"Technical support needs improvement."
"The firmware upgrades could be simplified. I'm in the process of struggling to upgrade right now."
"We are not able to deal directly with the OEM we have to go to their partners in Nigeria."
"DD doesn't have Intel's air gap technology."
"The price of the product is high."
"They need to make migration easier."
