"It's very competitive in terms of the price and technology. Also, the development team continuously makes updates. The data reduction feature is very useful."
"The most valuable features of this product are its guaranteed reliability and its duplication capability."
"Data Domain is an excellent repository that's compatible with a lot of different solutions. Even Veeam Backup recommends sending backup to Data Domain. Space optimization is great. Currently, it guarantees 50-to-1 compression of the application in the same device. In all these years, I never had a client who was unsatisfied with Data Domain. It is a solid appliance with VMware integration, instant access to restore and search, and analytics."
"Good starting capacity and scalability."
"It's very easy to use the domain once it's been set up. The interface is also user-friendly."

"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
"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."
"The pricing should be adjusted. Customers continuously talk about the price. They know it is a good solution and they really need the type of storage the solution offers, but it costs somewhere around $100,000 and up. It's not cheap, but it's very important for data vendors."
"I would like to see better integration and support for backing up to cloud providers such as Alibaba Cloud."
"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."
"We would like faster instant recovery."
"DD Boost."
"It can probably have integration with other OEMs. It should also have more features for ransomware protection."
