"It has a lot of stock reports. I believe over 300 canned reports, which for the most part meet a lot of generic needs."
"The reporting feature and the Dell's continuous improvement of the solution are the most valuable features. The solution not only supports Dell Power Products but also other products."
"The initial setup is very straightforward. Deployment typically takes about one hour. You just need one person to handle the deployment process."
"The solution is easy to use, flexible and has a lot of out-of-the-box functionality. You can configure the dashboards or you can use a script. However, to fully utilize its capabilities you will want to use a lot of scripts which you will need advanced training. The reports can be customized for many things, such as chargeback billing."
"The platform's most valuable features are data protection and retention."
"The deduplication is probably the most valuable feature of that requirement."
"It generates very detailed reports, which makes things easier when it comes to IT auditing."
"I can increase the tool's licensing as per my requirement with no conditions applied."
"A technical person who hasn't received any dedicated training or hasn't gone through the documentation part of the solution may find the product to be a little non-intuitive at times."
"The functionality of the Data Protection Advisor is limited and is something that is lacking in this solution. Other solutions like CloudIQ and DDMC provide a much better outlook on how data protection should be done."
"The solution requires more integration with our other solutions. I know that they have full integration with VMware because it is also from EMC. However, we have to have better integration with Microsoft and Nutanix as well."
"Dell Data Protection Advisor's feature for data domain protection needs enhancement."
"The stability of the solution needs improvement for stand alone users."
"They should empower their customers with the ability to upgrade this solution as long as it's in the same major release."
"It is difficult to manage the solution with the available tools. You need to know exactly what are you are doing."
"It's a bit difficult for first-time users."
