Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"The solution has been very stable."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"Dell PowerProtect DD is a stable solution."
"The product, a disk backup solution, improves our data application tasks. We used tape libraries with Dev drives in legacy architectures, resulting in slow backups compared to modern drives like NVMe and SSDs. By transitioning to NVMe and SSDs, backups have become much faster. The tool's backup restoration is faster compared to other tools."
"This is a superior and reliable backup system that can handle large capacities with little management."
"The solution is very stable."
"The solution is very scalable."
"It is very fast as compared to the other competitors. Its simplicity and bit rate are also valuable. It takes less time if we compare it with the old solution that we have."
"It is a stable solution."
"The initial setup was straightforward. Deployment takes about two weeks."
"The management could be a bit better."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The pricing could be better, but it's still not too expensive."
"We are not able to deal directly with the OEM we have to go to their partners in Nigeria."
"We encountered data loss during the configuration process."
"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."
"DD doesn't have Intel's air gap technology."
"It can probably have integration with other OEMs. It should also have more features for ransomware protection."
"EMC is very expensive for small customers."
"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."
