We performed a comparison between Azure NetApp Files and Oracle Database Backup Service based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Public Cloud Storage Services solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The critical features of this solution are SnapMirror for replication, data protection, and SnapLock."
"Using NetApp Files got us out of a really difficult situation quickly, effectively, and at a reasonable cost."
"The availability is good, meaning downtime or network issues rarely occur. The system also offers flexibility, allowing for increases in data volume, IOPS, and other capabilities without requiring downtime, which is a strong point. Based on the money spent, we can get performance improvements and high availability."
"I think the easiest part is, when you do a comparison, it is the throughput versus the cost. And it's much easier to set up."
"It has saved a lot of time. Because in the older, conventional hardware system, they need to raise a ticket to go to storage engineering, then storage engineering would increased the size. Now, it's dynamic. You don't have to do anything. This improved the time by more than 50 percent."
"I like the SnapMirror feature in Azure NetApp Files. It helps me create backups with snapshots and makes data recovery and compression."
"Since we have NetApp's internally, we use the SnapMirror predominantly for this process in the cloud which is beneficial."
"It's elastic, so it scales with our demands. We can start small, then with the addition of customer loads, we can expand on-the-fly without the need to reprovision something."
"From the database perspective, Oracle is the best."
"It's a scalable product."
"Oracle Database Backup Service is an easy-to-use consolidation solution that's dashboard-driven."
"The product works very fast. It automates a lot of operations in the background."
"The product's most valuable features are differential and cumulative backup functionality."
"Replication and performance tuning are valuable features."
"The backup is reliable and intuitive."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to perform encrypted backups after any learning."
"The main area for improvement is in the support ticket system. Since it's a SaaS platform, support tickets are managed by Microsoft or NetApp backend. This can sometimes lead to cross-functional challenges for organizations."
"We would like to see more paired regions for the replication."
"I would like to see multi-zone redundancy so that I don't have to worry about it. I just back up my data to that one SMB share and I know that it's replicated to a different region."
"This solution would be improved with more innovation."
"The solution needs to improve it's ABS environment."
"We would like for the files which are coming in that we can version them. So, if a file is accidentally deleted, there should have a recycle bin option where we can go back, and at least once, clean it up."
"The main hurdle in promoting this solution is the price. Its price definitely requires an improvement. It is more expensive than other options, so customers go for a cheaper option."
"The deployment process is somewhat complex compared to other storage solutions."
"The solution needs to add an archive function."
"Deployment is overly complex and could be streamlined."
"We cannot use the product with other brands."
"The product can protect from external data penetration, but the in-house IT team can access it."
"The product's technical support services need improvement in terms of response time."
"We encounter issues while restoring differential and cumulative backups."
"It's already fast, but still, they could improve the speed."
"They should base their strategy according to the country and the regulations there, and focus more on the on-premises deployment."
