"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"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 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 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."
"The most valuable features are image backups and file backups."
"Duplication and the speed of backup are great."
"It was very simple to deploy the solution to the client that you wanted to backup."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with Data Domain and your VM stacks."
"We've been using this solution to backup our servers. It is a simple backup and restore data application."
"It's stable and offers good performance."
"The management could be a bit better."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"Avamar cannot back up Nutanix as a virtual solution."
"Its ability to back up very large objects can be improved. In terms of new features, they can include the ability to use cloud services, like S3, more natively."
"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."
"It lacks support for certain plugins, like SAP HANA, for example."
"Performance can sometimes be affected when tools are utilized for tasks like backup or deep archiving."
"The screen design is a bit back-dated."
"Dell hasn't done a good job at handling these upgrades, or the way EMC used to handle them."
"It would be helpful if the product offered more integration potential."
