"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
"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."
"The screen design is a bit back-dated."
"Some customers need to back up to tape, but Avamar lacks support, so it costs a lot."
"It lacks support for certain plugins, like SAP HANA, for example."
"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."
"Dell Avamar could improve by adding more backup features."
"The solution, in the future, should offer support for mobile."
"The user interface still needs to have some level of improvement. It could be more user-friendly and intuitive."
