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."The features that I have found most valuable with Dell EMC PowerProtect DD are its deduplication feature and its DD Boost protocol for fast transfer, which is amazing."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"Its pricing is not overly expensive."
"It works within backup windows and has got good deduplication."
"This solution has a feature called Domain Boost, which allows for source deduplication and compression."
"Dell PowerProtect DD’s most valuable feature is data deduplication."
"The hardware can operate in high temperatures, in case of any disaster."
"The most valuable features of this product are its guaranteed reliability and its duplication capability."
"While the challenges posed by the difficulties were significant, they prompted the replacement of problematic components, resulting in the resolution of issues. Importantly, there were no substantial ongoing concerns. Regarding the overall performance, it has been consistently excellent."
"I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas."
"Dell PowerProtect DD should come out with its own system so we do not have to use Data Domain. For example, something similar to what Symantec has done."
"The only problem is that it's more expensive than any other vendors available in the market."
"They still have hardware different from the software."
"The product lacks some security features that would make it more stand-alone and integrated."
"We have had deduplication and replication issues. When we used another backup software we noticed that it didn't have the same issues."
"The licensing is not cost-effective, and the pricing could be better."
"The price could be improved."
"We are not able to deal directly with the OEM we have to go to their partners in Nigeria."
"The product needs to improve performance while scaling out. It also needs to improve stability."
"Perhaps the most notable area for enhancement lies in the web interface for management. The current limitations in LDAP editing capabilities are not addressed in the UI, and I haven't observed any recent updates. It's possible that the new version of the DXI service incorporates improvements in the GUI, but I cannot confirm. While there is room for improvement in the current GUI, it remains a relatively minor issue. Overall, the system is comprehensive, covering aspects such as reports on latency and networking, leaving little room for additional enhancements in those areas."
