Find out in this report how the two Deduplication Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Whenever you have a crash or your service is not working, you can just live-boot the machine and have your service up and running."
"The product is easy to install and use while doing what it is expected to do."
"It's a one-stop shop, meaning we just program and schedule the backups, decide what is being backed up, and then it automatically replicates and deduplicates."
"Easy, immediate protection for data that is virtually infinitely scalable."
"We perform backup drills to test the functionality, and we don't have any problems."
"It is very reliable, so we don't have any issues with it. Our customers have never raised any issue with it. Basically, once you set it up and it is running, it is trouble-free. Our customers are happy. They just got a renewal for the subscription for the service."
"The most valuable features are the deduplication that analyzes data to identify duplicate patterns and granular restore."
"The scalability of the product is fine."
"It has been our go-to product for backup."
"The most valuable feature of Veritas NetBackup Appliance is duplication and covers many applications."
"The solution uses minimal resources."
"The initial setup gets easier the more you do it."
"They are a large company with good best practices, and they give good support."
"The tool's most valuable feature is recovery."
"This is a good backup interconversion solution because all the masters and the targets backups are on the same system. It is easy to administrate for a single point of access for clients."
"The most valuable feature involves VMware Instant Recovery, which allows one to do restoration within seconds."
"The backup feature could be a bit simpler to utilize. They should make the process of backing up individual files simpler."
"It would be nice to have some reports generated on the usage, but it is not essential."
"I am working in some of the more rural areas of Sweden, and some of the customers here are a little bit wary of cloud technology at the moment. It is not like in Gothenburg or Stockholm, where people rely on it so much more. In the rural areas, companies are saying that we do need to use the cloud, and they are being very wary about their data, especially with GDPR and all that kind of stuff. Having more control and having an option for backing up locally, even if you don't want to use it, would be something very good. The cloud backup is brilliant, but there should be an option to take that cloud backup and save it locally as well. If you lose connection to the internet or you lose access to your data in the cloud, having a backup copy of the latest data on your server is helpful. You need to be able to get access to your customers' files, especially with GDPR, where you need to know where your customers' details are. If they're in the cloud and you've lost access to them, then you'll go into those GDPR regulations. This is somewhere where both Barracuda and Veeam haven't gone as far. As far as I have understood, with Veeam, you can back up your local servers to the cloud but not vice versa. I haven't worked on it much."
"Their technical support is not very good. You never know what they are doing and what is the issue. Customers need to know what is happening. This is our main concern and the only thing that can be improved in this solution. I would like to have more visibility about what is going on when something happens. I need to know what was done to solve the issue."
"I would like to see the Live Boot feature extended to Hyper-V machines, in addition to VMware machines."
"Barracuda Backup could use some more integration."
"Setting up Barracuda Backup is straightforward."
"We're working with them on our file share backups. Our solution needs a little bit more fine-tuning. We're not sure if the issue is at our end or at Barracuda's end."
"It would be a better solution if we were able to make more reports in regards to the backup system."
"The price needs to be improved because it is really expensive."
"The challenge arose due to a space issue. The issue was related to disk breaks, especially when power cuts occurred. One of the disks would break, leading to a loss of functionality."
"We had some problems with the backup of the physical server."
"More licensing options could be introduced to the software. It is currently based on capacity only. Compared to competitors, it is difficult to position it economically everywhere. From the usability point of view, they are making many improvements on new interfaces, the SaaS offering, etc."
"It could be better integrated with other platforms."
"Technical support for this solution needs to be improved."
"NetBackup Appliance's pricing is reasonable, but it could be lower."
