"The most valuable feature for me in Dell Avamar is the automation, which is good for completion."
"I like Dell EMC Avamar's compression of data."
"We have seen huge data reduction and data deduplication and compression, which is very cost-effective and cost-reducing for the company."
"The tool's most valuable features are backup management and speed."
"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 solution is very user-friendly."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
"Some customers need to back up to tape, but Avamar lacks support, so it costs a lot."
"The screen design is a bit back-dated."
"It would be better if we could integrate easily with other platforms."
"Backup image browse times should be faster."
"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 solution could be a bit easier to use in the sense that they need to make it simpler to backup products and restore items."
"The client caches and deduplication system have a few problems."
"Avamar is dependent on the hardware. It can't be implemented with ordinary storage. It can only be implemented with an EMC product. We want to have a backup solution that allows us to use independent storage and other hardware. It would be good if they can simplify its technology and make it possible to implement it with another storage. This is probably not possible because Avamar is an EMC product, and EMC would like to sell its own products."
