Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"The solution has been very stable."
"Avamar's source side deduplication is very strong, it can easily back up remote sites' data, and not much bandwidth is required on the Avamar side."
"We used Dell Avamar for backup and recovery of a virtual environment."
"Dell EMC Avamar is easy to work with and is user-friendly."
"Graphically, it's very user interactive. It's got a very nice interface."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Stable and scalable backup and recovery software, with good technical support."
"The solution is very stable."
"Client deduplication."
"The management could be a bit better."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"There also needs to be single sign-on support."
"The solution could improve by having better integration and more flexibility."
"I would like to see better integration with third-party applications and platforms."
"Avamar needs a greater emphasis on storage targets. If it's going to keep pace with the times, it needs more ability to leverage cloud storage."
"The performance takes up a lot of resources, unfortunately."
"When we used the solution, it was still new, and so the customer service/technical support was not the best."
"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."
"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."
