"The compression aspect of the solution is great."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"It is secure, reliable, and has officer support."
"It is stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
"Data Domain lacks compatibility with fiber channels and tapes. We can't use it with a tape library. That's an issue in Latin America sometimes because a lot of clients still use tapes for budget reasons. Maybe they have a lot of archives. In North America and Europe, they do a lot of archiving, but they use the cloud more than we do. Sometimes we have to put together a Frankenstein where we connect another server to the tape library and send all the data there."
"It helps if you have in-depth knowledge in order to use it correctly."
"When you use Data Domain, you have to have at least 20% free space so it can work properly. Sometimes we struggle with that, because we wanted to use all the free space, but then Data Domain becomes really slow. I understand that 20% is needed to process all the data, and doing the duplication and compression and all that, but it would be a big improvement if they did not require that 20%, because it is just too much to have available."
"We would like faster instant recovery."
"The tool's pricing could be cheaper."
"The software from Dell that can be used to operate Data Domain needs to have enhancements made to the user interface. It is too complex."
"Looking at Dell PowerProtect DD (Data Domain), there is a need for improvement, especially in terms of protection from cyber resiliency, cyber recovery, or man-in-the-middle attacks."
"The tool's DD Boost is expensive."
