Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."Global deduplication is the best feature of this solution."
"One of the things that I do like about it is that it has a very good deduplication feature."
"I would recommend it if there is a general case."
"Easy restoration and the solution works quickly."
"The most valuable feature of StorageCraft ShadowProtect is the speed and the compression of the backups. The compressed backed-up files do not take up as much storage. Additionally, the incremental backups can be done in one minute and be backed up on a disc very fast."
"The standard backup and restore feature is most used."
"Arcserve UDP has a good configuration and user interface. It makes the job of an administrator easy."
"It allows us to back up all the servers and centrally manage them."
"The product, a disk backup solution, improves our data application tasks. We used tape libraries with Dev drives in legacy architectures, resulting in slow backups compared to modern drives like NVMe and SSDs. By transitioning to NVMe and SSDs, backups have become much faster. The tool's backup restoration is faster compared to other tools."
"I find the data to be most valuable."
"The most valuable features of Dell PowerProtect DD are ease of use and deduplication."
"It's very easy to use the domain once it's been set up. The interface is also user-friendly."
"It works within backup windows and has got good deduplication."
"The feature that I have found most useful is its data duplication."
"The most valuable features of Dell EMC PowerProtect DD are the duplication security and uptime."
"We are very satisfied with this solution. It's easy to use and efficient."
"Licensing is an area that needs improvement."
"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."
"In the most recent version of premium plus the replication has been removed, and it should re-added to the solution."
"Its interface can be improved. I find it unintuitive."
"The only problem with the solution is that when I change the drive capacity, it has to do a full backup. It's a problem when I have five servers to backup. When I only want to change the size of the drive, I have to do a full backup that can take one week."
"The tool doesn't provide cloud integration in India."
"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."
"A lot of their new technologies are not very good."
"Data Domain lacks compatibility with fiber channels and tapes. We can't use it with a tape library. That's an issue in Latin America sometimes because a lot of clients still use tapes for budget reasons. Maybe they have a lot of archives. In North America and Europe, they do a lot of archiving, but they use the cloud more than we do. Sometimes we have to put together a Frankenstein where we connect another server to the tape library and send all the data there."
"They should reduce the CPC cost to customers. The product is becoming very expensive."
"I would like to see some kind of integration with the ransomware in the next release."
"First-time integrations are difficult in NetWorker. NetWorker software needs to be simplified. It's very complex."
"The pricing could be lower."
"They need to make migration easier."
"EMC is very expensive for small customers."
"The pricing could be better, but it's still not too expensive."
