"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"The solution has been very stable."
"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."
"The solution is very user-friendly."
"Source based deduplication is the most attractive feature as it drastically reduces the backup window."
"It was very simple to deploy the solution to the client that you wanted to backup."
"The solution is very stable."
"We've found the product to be stable."
"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."
"We've been using this solution to backup our servers. It is a simple backup and restore data application."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
"The recovery is a bit slow."
"The interface could be more helpful for people."
"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."
"This solution could improve by introducing daily verifications and another repository."
"The solution is not very strong on the Cloud. They should work out how they can use this as a backup as a service."
"Some integrations are not in place, such as the email alerts, which are not compatible with Office 365 SMTP gateway."
"Technical support should be more knowledgeable."
"There also needs to be single sign-on support."
