"Consistency and reliability. The interface is easy to understand and consistent across applications. While not 100%, it is a very reliable backup solution."
"Our customers can backup to local storage and they can back up or replicate to the cloud."
"The administration is pretty flexible in terms of defining a multi-tenant type of setup."
"I like Acronis Cyber Protect's backup process and its management console is intuitive."
"In our recent experiences, Acronis Cyber Protect proved most valuable during instances of colleagues facing migration challenges due to ransomware impacts. In these situations, where servers and backups were affected, having a backup stored in external drives or other devices within our data centers posed risks. To address this vulnerability, we decided to shift to a cloud backup solution."
"The solution has all the features I need and user friendly."
"The most valuable feature is its consistency."
"We have never had any issues with Data Domain. It has been stable."
"Deduplication and compression are the best features of the solution, which are popular and very effective."
"The most important feature is the level of data compression provided by Dell EMC. It's a leader in data compression and deduplication, and the level of compression isn't available with any other vendors in the market."
"The most valuable feature is the inline data deduplication."
"The backup is very secure. The deduplication using EMC is very good. We are able to make systems and handle random cloning. EMC is a very stable solution for making backups."
"The hardware can operate in high temperatures, in case of any disaster."
"9900 has around 1.5 petabits of capacity in a single rack, and that's huge."
"The tool's performance is very good. DD Boost can improve its performance and backup."
"The whole product structure is confusing. You can actually get to do what you want to do. But Acronis seems to have a singular ability to make things difficult."
"The technical support of Acronis Backup could improve. They have the depth of knowledge but the speed of the response could be quicker."
"The UI performance can be slow at times, especially when handling operations like checking backup status or initiating a restore. The response time for these actions could be improved."
"There are some limitations to the backup."
"It would be nice to have a partition that I can boot and reinstall when taking a backup image from the operating system."
"I believe that the next release should be easier to configure as this one is difficult to configure even the easiest of tasks."
"Their support process can be quite lengthy...This is an area that needs improvement."
"We have sometimes issues with the child copies and other similar functions, but it's normal with any backup solution. We need to fix those issues first in order for us to be able to do the backup properly."
"The tool's pricing could be cheaper."
"They still have hardware different from the software."
"The usage of this solution is a bit difficult to develop processes, and it takes a long time to market permits."
"We have had deduplication and replication issues. When we used another backup software we noticed that it didn't have the same issues."
"First-time integrations are difficult in NetWorker. NetWorker software needs to be simplified. It's very complex."
"Dell PowerProtect DD (Data Domain) is expensive. Also, it has a sort of a big physical footprint that data domains have, and that's part of the problem."
"The price could be improved."
"Dell EMC Data Domain needs to have better compatibility between NetWorker and the hardware. NetWorker is not as good as the other products which are currently on the market like Backup Exec."
