Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"The solution has been very stable."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"So far, Avamar covers everything we want. We are replicating to other sites for disaster recovery, so it's working well for us."
"It is one of the best solutions for backing up Oracle and other servers."
"We sell Avamar with Data Domain. Data Domain and Avamar work really well together and their compression ratios are very high compared to Veeam, Commvault, and all the other backup software on the market."
"Duplication and the speed of backup are great."
"The backup is the solution's most valuable feature. It's very reliable."
"The solution is very stable."
"We've been using this solution to backup our servers. It is a simple backup and restore data application."
"The data reduction feature and the ease of enabling a server in a DR location are the most valuable."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
"The solution, in the future, should offer support for mobile."
"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."
"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."
"Compared with Cohesity or Rubrik, which have some continuous data protection for backup and replication, this solution tends to lack in this area."
"It would be helpful if there was cloud support."
"It's not the best solution for big databases."
"The user interface needs to be improved. It's not as good as it could be."
"Backup image browse times should be faster."
