Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"The solution has been very stable."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"The solution integrates well with Unix, Windows, Hyper-V and VM."
"The setup is very easy."
"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."
"Source based deduplication is the most attractive feature as it drastically reduces the backup window."
"The backup and recovery speed is very fast."
"The source site replication feature is valuable."
"Effective in protecting the virtualization system and end points."
"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."
"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."
"When we used the solution, it was still new, and so the customer service/technical support was not the best."
"We have had a lot of problems with the Dell EMC Avamar solution. The snapshots are not being erased after backup."
"Technical support should be more knowledgeable."
"More integration would be helpful, as well as the addition of more applications."
"There also needs to be single sign-on support."
"It is very scalable, and that's its claim to fame, but that also makes it hard to make changes. Anytime there is a large piece of software, changing that piece of software is harder. You've got a larger install base, so you can't just rapidly change. We also use another product called Veeam, and it has this new feature called Continuous Data Protection, which basically lets you get very close to the way the system was in time. We have a system or two up there on which we have set 10 minutes Continuous Data Protection. So, we can roll it back to whatever it was 10 minutes ago, 20 minutes ago, or 30 minutes ago. This feature doesn't exist in Avamar Data Domain. That's the one feature I'd like to see first."
"The product could offer more integration capabilities."
