"Avamar has long been the best in its class, but that's changing as new solutions emerge. However, Dell has traditionally been a leader in deduplication and compression. Avamar enabled us to shift data from on-premise local appliances to data centers and multi-tenant infrastructure. That's a powerful feature. because customers can back up to the cloud without upgrading o high-capacity links or congesting their backups."

"The challenges we do face typically revolve around aligning specific features with our accustomed tool usage."
"The solution, in the future, should offer support for mobile."
"The interface could be more helpful for people."
"The client caches and deduplication system have a few problems."
