"With scalability, we feel the system is limited."

"The user interface could be improved."
"Planning for the implementation takes a lot of time."
"I would like to have support enabled for cloud backups."
"We faced so many backup configuration issues. And from the Veritas side, they couldn't fix that issue. So we started from scratch, purchased everything, and then we configured everything. Therefore, the support could be better."
"They need to work on the GUI. It has been the same for the last 10 years."
"There is a big change in Veritas. In the past, we could easily change servers or appliances and continue working by restoring the catalog. We could change servers from Linux to Linux or Linux to Solaris and perform catalog restores to continue working. But with the new version, we are forced to engage Veritas' professional services, which is too expensive."
"I also think they could improve the reporting. They use a web-based software application OpsCenter for the reporting and I see that they haven't made any changes in years."
"The flip side about NetBackup is that it is not policy-based."
"It would be extremely helpful if the solution offered near-zero recovery time for SQL."
