"The initial setup is easy."
"Dell Avamar has helped our organization by allowing us to do backups."
"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."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
"The interface could be more helpful for people."
"Avamar is still competitive because of the way we have deployed it, but we need to diversify and shift away from specific technologies. In addition to hypervisors, virtual machines, and bare metal servers, our customers need protection for Microsoft 365, SaaS, and the public cloud, so we need other technologies in the business to cater to those customers' needs. Those are the enhancements we would want from the Avamar platform, but that's not likely to happen. Dell has PowerProtect and Apex backup services. There are other Dell solutions that we'll use to fulfill our customers' requirements."
"More integration would be helpful, as well as the addition of more applications."
"The interface has room for improvement. It's not ideal right now."
"I have found the support from Dell EMC Avamar to be not as good as Veeam. The time it takes to receive support could be improved. However, once we have the support the agents are knowledgeable and helpful."
"Technical support should be more knowledgeable."
"We'd like to see something that could also work with Unix servers and physical servers to have a unified solution that works with everything."
"EMC has discontinued their Avamar hardware version. They only advertise the Avamar virtual edition."
