Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"The solution has been very stable."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"Dell EMC Avamar is very good with endpoint backups."
"The solution integrates well with Unix, Windows, Hyper-V and VM."
"I like Dell EMC Avamar's compression of data."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with Data Domain and your VM stacks."
"We love the instant recovery functionality. It's very useful."
"The solution is very stable."
"The entire system operates seamlessly, with minimal hands-on involvement, allowing us to focus on monitoring rather than constant adjustments or deployments, as seen in larger, more dynamic environments."
"It's simple to configure."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
"The user interface still needs to have some level of improvement. It could be more user-friendly and intuitive."
"This solution could improve by introducing daily verifications and another repository."
"The product could offer more integration capabilities."
"It is very scalable, and that's its claim to fame, but that also makes it hard to make changes. Anytime there is a large piece of software, changing that piece of software is harder. You've got a larger install base, so you can't just rapidly change. We also use another product called Veeam, and it has this new feature called Continuous Data Protection, which basically lets you get very close to the way the system was in time. We have a system or two up there on which we have set 10 minutes Continuous Data Protection. So, we can roll it back to whatever it was 10 minutes ago, 20 minutes ago, or 30 minutes ago. This feature doesn't exist in Avamar Data Domain. That's the one feature I'd like to see first."
"The management of this solution is a little bit difficult for IT administrators. They have to be trained before going through the system."
"The solution is not very strong on the Cloud. They should work out how they can use this as a backup as a service."
"The solution could improve by having better integration and more flexibility."
"Avamar is not the best tool when it comes to taking Azure backups. Like Commvault, if Avamar can support VM-level backups for the cloud, that would make it a bit better."
