Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."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."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"Dell Avamar has a push upgrade feature that lets you simultaneously push updates to thousands of clients. I also found the self-service part of Dell Avamar helpful."
"The most valuable feature of Avamar would have to be the way it works over needing very little bandwidth to move data across a WAN or LAN."
"Source based deduplication is the most attractive feature as it drastically reduces the backup window."
"The product is very powerful and offers very good performance."
"The data reduction feature and the ease of enabling a server in a DR location are the most valuable."
"Stable and scalable backup and recovery software, with good technical support."
"It's simple to configure."
"The most valuable features are image backups and file backups."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
"It's very slow to backup and store information. It has two consoles and an application which are more difficult to use than a solution like Veeam."
"I would like to see better integration with third-party applications and platforms."
"We have had a lot of problems with the Dell EMC Avamar solution. The snapshots are not being erased after backup."
"The UI is not easy to use. There are other products such as Veeam that are easy to use for the end-user which is why they are moving away from Avamar or Networker."
"The client caches and deduplication system have a few problems."
"It would be helpful if there was cloud support."
"The reporting should be improved, as we currently have to use another tool for that purpose."
"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."
