Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."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."
"It is a very stable solution."
"The image backup and image restore features have been very beneficial to us."
"Centralized management is valuable to us."
"In terms of system-critical support, Acronis' technical support does really well. I would give them an eight out of ten for that."
"The solution is exceptional for desktop backup."
"The ability to clone backups."
"The solution was easy to install and to deploy."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the integrated deduplication function."
"I like Data Domain as a protocol for data backup."
"This is a superior and reliable backup system that can handle large capacities with little management."
"We are very satisfied with this solution. It's easy to use and efficient."
"PowerProtect is a flexible solution that you can cover various cloud and on-premise environments."
"The hardware can operate in high temperatures, in case of any disaster."
"The most valuable features are the deduplication and compression and the Data Domain Boost."
"The stability is excellent."
"It would be nice to have it on the cloud platform without using third-party equipment."
"The new version has anti-malware and software management features, but these features should be enhanced. It is working as an exclusive solution along with the backup and recovery."
"The dashboards for digital operations can be improved."
"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."
"It could back up more things. I don't think it can back up Box and some of the other third-party ones. Not that we use them that much, but the more they can do, the better it would be. There could also be better integrations with RMM tools."
"The support and documentation must be improved."
"The solution could be better if some of the features were more in-depth."
"It would be nice if it could support more types of storage: EMC, HPE, Veeam, etc."
"They should reduce the CPC cost to customers. The product is becoming very expensive."
"It helps if you have in-depth knowledge in order to use it correctly."
"We would like faster instant recovery."
"Dell PowerProtect DD could improve by having better integration with other backup solutions."
"Data Domain lacks compatibility with fiber channels and tapes. We can't use it with a tape library. That's an issue in Latin America sometimes because a lot of clients still use tapes for budget reasons. Maybe they have a lot of archives. In North America and Europe, they do a lot of archiving, but they use the cloud more than we do. Sometimes we have to put together a Frankenstein where we connect another server to the tape library and send all the data there."
"The product lacks some security features that would make it more stand-alone and integrated."
"The licensing model was the biggest concern for our company, but the poor support after the initial implementation is of equal concern."
"The pricing could be lower."
