"The solution has been very stable."
"The solution is very user-friendly."
"Scheduling is valuable. It does a good job of backing up, and it does a good job of restoring. Nobody has got a problem with that. The agents are well supported."
"What I found valuable in Dell Avamar is the deduplication feature. I also like that the solution can be integrated with Data Domain."
"I think the brand is very good. Support is also very nice for end users and integration with EMC products for businesses."

"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"If you need to pull data out of it to offload to tapes, that's messy. You have a mechanism for it, but it is painful."

"This solution could improve by introducing daily verifications and another repository."
"The support is very bad."
"The UI is quite old. We've been using this UI since last year, and they haven't changed it. It would be better to update the UI periodically and create attractive dashboards from an administrative point of view."
"If you don't have DPA, the reporting features are not as user-friendly, so reporting is something that they can improve on."
"The solution should improve its tape-connectivity features."
"Setup and deployment of this solution is complex and requires expert engineers."
