"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"The solution has been very stable."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"We love the instant recovery functionality. It's very useful."
"The solution scales well."
"For the on-prem backup, it has all the necessary features that we require. They keep coming up with new scripts and new updates."
"The product has a proven track record of good backups without much of a failure ratio. It also has a good backup in terms of the compression ratio."
"It works quickly and is very stable."
"The stability is okay."
"We are talking about a complete end-to-end solution which comes with its own hardware storage to back up the data on tape-less."
"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."
"When we used the solution, it was still new, and so the customer service/technical support was not the best."
"What would make Dell Avamar better is if it can do faster backups because right now, PowerProtect Data Manager is better in this area with its new UI and a new way to implement backups. Customers nowadays also expect more up-to-date solutions, and this is another area for improvement in Dell Avamar. It's not as up-to-date, so I'm counting on PowerProtect Data Manager, but customers who have Dell Avamar don't want to switch because you don't have as many backup problems in Dell Avamar compared to other solutions. What I'd like to see in the next release of Dell Avamar is an updated UI and a different way to manage backups because currently, backup management is a bit heavy for customers using Dell Avamar."
"Some integrations are not in place, such as the email alerts, which are not compatible with Office 365 SMTP gateway."
"The solution used to freeze sometimes while taking a snapshot backup."
"Backup image browse times should be faster."
"The performance takes up a lot of resources, unfortunately."
"We don't trust the product 100 percent. Kaspersky has many features Dell Avamar doesn't support, such as granular backup and history."
"If you don't have DPA, the reporting features are not as user-friendly, so reporting is something that they can improve on."
