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 superior support from Barracuda in setting up, using, and helping with issues for the product."
"Of all the backup products we have used, this by far is the simplest to install and use."
"The most valuable feature is unlimited data storage on the cloud. Even if the employee has left the company for a few years, the backup will still be maintained."
"Barracuda's support is probably one of the best things about them, even with all their solutions. With any problem that we have, or even questions, we get the assistance that we need. The turnaround is pretty quick."
"The product is easy to install and use while doing what it is expected to do."
"They are the best support that we have had so far. When you contact or email them, they are very quick to respond. They always have someone available for us. That's what we want as a customer, we want someone to listen to us."
"The main feature we like about Barracuda is that we can map devices directly to the cloud. It operates as a security device to run a backup of the cloud in case one of our physical machines goes down."
"We perform backup drills to test the functionality, and we don't have any problems."
"It is easy to use and the performance is good."
"The utilization of Data Domain is crucial because of its integration with a key Veritas feature: retention lock. This feature ensures data integrity by preventing any alterations to stored data. When NetBackup interacts with Data Domain, enabling the retention lock feature ensures that neither administrators nor backup personnel can modify data stored within the system. This functionality is vital for compliance purposes and meets the requirements of auditors."
"The solution uses minimal resources."
"The most valuable feature involves VMware Instant Recovery, which allows one to do restoration within seconds."
"We have good data backup coverage."
"Veritas NetBackup Appliance is a total backup solution. We don't have to buy other applications to do it."
"The solution is very stable...The solution is very scalable."
"It is very capable of scaling and very good for heterogeneous environments."
"The solution needs fine-grained backup capabilities to service individual users. But this is a minor issue considering all that the product does."
"This solution could be improved with offering lower prices at scale."
"The solution is pretty expensive. This is the usual customer complaint."
"It is not always stable."
"I would like to see a way to increase space."
"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 better integration with third-party applications."
"Barracuda works great for smaller network environments, which are not that complex. It is hardware-based with a Linux core, which you don't have access to, and a lot of stuff happens on the back-end. Even from a troubleshooting perspective, it is a bit challenging."
"This solution has to have better integration with the cloud, as well as with other solutions such as Business Intelligence products."
"Sometimes, the user interface doesn't work smoothly."
"NetBackup Appliance's pricing is reasonable, but it could be lower."
"I would like to see support for databases such as MySQL and MongoDB."
"They need to make the licensing more clear. They should give all of the licensing details for the portals and be more clear. I have accidentally purchased the incorrect license because it's not clear."
"The scalability could be improved."
"The desirability of appliance solutions is dwindling in the marketplace."
"The hybrid model is not that efficient if we want to off-site data; it takes a lot of time to upload the data on a regular basis."
