"Ease of installing, configuring, upgrading, and troubleshooting."
"The solution is easy to scale."

"The solution is stable."
"Its interface can be improved. I find it unintuitive."
"The problem is just reliability. If the promises in the marketing material were realized in real life, it would be the perfect solution, but it's just the reliability issues."

"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."
"The speed of restores should be improved. We have found the speed of large restores rather slow."
"I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve."
"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."

"It should be able to integrate with the cloud. If we leverage a cloud in the future for backup, there should be very fast help and more options for customers to choose from."
"Extra features come with additional costs."
"The backup operation interface is not as mature as those of Veritas's competitors and has room for improvement."
"The pricing is a bit of a concern. If could be lower."
