Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."Effective in protecting the virtualization system and end points."
"It works quickly and is very stable."
"Quick incremental backups and product replication are the two highlights of the product. Once you capture a full backup, incrementals are pretty quick. It is fairly efficient from that perspective."
"Dell Avamar has helped our organization by allowing us to do backups."
"It is one of the best solutions for backing up Oracle and other servers."
"I have found the product to be scalable."
"Its deduplication technologies are the best in the market, currently."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Essentially, it replaced our tape backups."
"If you don't have DPA, the reporting features are not as user-friendly, so reporting is something that they can improve on."
"The interface has room for improvement. It's not ideal right now."
"It's an expensive solution."
"Some integrations are not in place, such as the email alerts, which are not compatible with Office 365 SMTP gateway."
"I have found the support from Dell EMC Avamar to be not as good as Veeam. The time it takes to receive support could be improved. However, once we have the support the agents are knowledgeable and helpful."
"It would be better if we could integrate easily with other platforms."
"Avamar is dependent on the hardware. It can't be implemented with ordinary storage. It can only be implemented with an EMC product. We want to have a backup solution that allows us to use independent storage and other hardware. It would be good if they can simplify its technology and make it possible to implement it with another storage. This is probably not possible because Avamar is an EMC product, and EMC would like to sell its own products."
"EMC has discontinued their Avamar hardware version. They only advertise the Avamar virtual edition."
"I would like to see more improvement in the GUI."
