"It's always stable. It's very good, useful, and user-friendly."
"Since the last version, everything has been improved."
"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."
"Some of the most valuable features are recovery, protection against malware, and software management. I am happy with the dashboards and user interface."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to back up and recover our production environment from ransomware."
"One of its most valuable aspects is its user-friendly interface."
"The Acronis panel is user friendly and tracking backups across a number of different devices is great. Acronis provides prompts and reminders to users if certain files are not backed up."
"It is stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"The product provides good backup and compression services."
"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."
"Good starting capacity and scalability."
"I find the data to be most valuable."
"It is a stable solution."
"Dell PowerProtect DD is a stable solution."
"Its pricing is not overly expensive."
"It would be better if they made it easier to obtain images for laptops and desktops. It isn't easy right now to have many different types of desktop computers. This is because Microsoft is changing a lot of things in Windows 10."
"There are times when the backups are slow. A faster backup would be better."
"The solution could improve by providing more database backup features and have better integration with many different types of databases. We cannot implement it in all of our infrastructures."
"A little bit more integration would be good. It should support broader platforms."
"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."
"When you are using enterprise hardware and software that increases over time, there need to be better and more management features. For pure backup software, it is fine, but when it comes to managing a large infrastructure it is lacking."
"The reporting can be improved."
"When I first started using Acronis, I found it a little bit confusing when it came to the configuration."
"When you use Data Domain, you have to have at least 20% free space so it can work properly. Sometimes we struggle with that, because we wanted to use all the free space, but then Data Domain becomes really slow. I understand that 20% is needed to process all the data, and doing the duplication and compression and all that, but it would be a big improvement if they did not require that 20%, because it is just too much to have available."
"The usage of this solution is a bit difficult to develop processes, and it takes a long time to market permits."
"Dell EMC Data Domain needs to have better compatibility between NetWorker and the hardware. NetWorker is not as good as the other products which are currently on the market like Backup Exec."
"Looking at Dell PowerProtect DD (Data Domain), there is a need for improvement, especially in terms of protection from cyber resiliency, cyber recovery, or man-in-the-middle attacks."
"Installation and deployment for this product need improvement. These processes need to made easier. Currently, it's not an easy installation for customers. This product needs to be installed by professionals."
"DD Boost."
"The initial setup is complex."
"We encountered data loss during the configuration process."
