To address this vulnerability, we decided to shift to a cloud backup solution."
"It is secure, reliable, and has officer support."
"The solution can scale up to one petabyte right now. It's very good for enterprise-level organizations."
"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."

"The biggest problem that we have is when the antivirus is installed, the whole machine runs very slowly and some of the machines hang."
"It would be nice if it could support more types of storage: EMC, HPE, Veeam, etc."
