Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."One of its most valuable aspects is its user-friendly interface."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it backs up my systems transparently in the background, and I'm not even conscious of it."
"Acronis Backup is easy to use."
"It makes a full image of the hard drive. If a hard drive fails, all we do is recover to another hard drive."
"The solution is exceptional for desktop backup."
"The most valuable feature is the quick restoration. We can restore the data quickly."
"The most valuable feature is its consistency."
"Acronis Backup is easy to use, intuitive, and has high performance."
"As our organization functions, we have a total of 2500+ primary sites and 6300+ secondary sites. All of our entire backup systems are totally dependent on this product. EMC Data Domain is very reliable and there are no issues using it since 2015."
"The most important feature is the level of data compression provided by Dell EMC. It's a leader in data compression and deduplication, and the level of compression isn't available with any other vendors in the market."
"The most valuable feature is the performance because you can back up data really quickly."
"It is stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"It's very easy to use the domain once it's been set up. The interface is also user-friendly."
"The deduplication feature is the most valuable part of the solution."
"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."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the integrated deduplication function."
"The UI performance can be slow at times, especially when handling operations like checking backup status or initiating a restore. The response time for these actions could be improved."
"The pricing could be improved."
"I've had some issues with the understandability of the interface. I think if they had someone with expertise in user interfaces to look at this, they could clean up the user interface."
"I would like to have more cybersecurity integration to properly round up the product and its offering. In terms of cybersecurity, if the offerings can be more versatile so that it is not just a backup solution, it would be great. Some addition to cybersecurity would really be helpful so that it becomes a kind of a suite of products. Backup and recovery form a part of the broader security strategy. Its integration with other cybersecurity solutions would provide proper visibility to not just your cybersecurity dashboard but also to all of your backups. You would have a pretty good view of the entire security landscape that you are managing."
"The dashboards for digital operations can be improved."
"The problems that we face are often related to the customer's network, although sometimes there are problems with the software, such as an error in the configuration."
"I would change the GUI a little to make it a bit more interactive. It should have a slightly more updated look, not something which looks like it was designed five years ago despite the fact it is easy to follow and very appealing."
"If I could create a protected image backup on a computer partition that just would be just for the image backup; and only the program could access it to prevent viruses from getting into it. That would be very, very good."
"The tool's pricing could be cheaper."
"The firmware upgrades could be simplified. I'm in the process of struggling to upgrade right now."
"I would like to see some kind of integration with the ransomware in the next release."
"The initial setup is complex."
"Dell PowerProtect DD should come out with its own system so we do not have to use Data Domain. For example, something similar to what Symantec has done."
"The licensing is not cost-effective, and the pricing could be better."
"The licensing model was the biggest concern for our company, but the poor support after the initial implementation is of equal concern."
"We have some problems with backing up on the Power Platform. PowerServer is an IBM product, and it forces us to back up over LAN, which is not suitable for us."
