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 backup feature is most valuable. That's why we took it."
"The superior support from Barracuda in setting up, using, and helping with issues for the product."
"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 performance is good and the interface is user-friendly."
"The product is easy to install and use while doing what it is expected to do."
"It's a one-stop shop, meaning we just program and schedule the backups, decide what is being backed up, and then it automatically replicates and deduplicates."
"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."
"We perform backup drills to test the functionality, and we don't have any problems."
"NetBackup Appliance's most valuable feature is the duplication encryption standard feature."
"I can confidently say that I have managed more than 30 or 50 appliances over different time periods, and yet I never had a single hardware failure."
"We can add multiple appliances to the product."
"The policy-based backup feature is very helpful."
"There are a lot of new features that operate to protect the data from ransomware attacks. They launched the Veritas/Appliances to protect our data. Veritas has been doing its job well."
"NetBackup is based on really good architectural hardware, and Veritas has the best backup and replication technology in the world."
"The initial setup gets easier the more you do it."
"The most valuable feature of Veritas NetBackup Appliance is duplication and covers many applications."
"We're working with them on our file share backups. Our solution needs a little bit more fine-tuning. We're not sure if the issue is at our end or at Barracuda's end."
"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."
"The tool is not user-friendly. The solution should also improve its compatibility. It is also not license-based."
"The restore time can be improved. The restore time for large quantities of folders is slow. Sometimes, if I'm doing a full recovery of a server, it takes multiple hours, which probably is natural. It might also be because of our internet speed to the cloud."
"I would like to see the automatic backup of critical applications to the cloud."
"The solution needs fine-grained backup capabilities to service individual users. But this is a minor issue considering all that the product does."
"The backup feature could be a bit simpler to utilize. They should make the process of backing up individual files simpler."
"Setting up Barracuda Backup is straightforward."
"Veritas NetBackup Appliance can improve by having a more direct connection to the cloud. It should have the technology to be able to directly communicate with the cloud."
"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."
"The desirability of appliance solutions is dwindling in the marketplace."
"This solution has to have better integration with the cloud, as well as with other solutions such as Business Intelligence products."
"The NetBackup software is based on Red Hat Linux, but we should have multiple software options for that. We should have more OS options. Also, there are too many tools and intermediaries. Everything should be built into an all-in-one solution."
"In terms of implementing the solution, it's quite technical. You need to be knowledgable in order to pull off a successful deployment."
"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."
"NetBackup Appliance's pricing is reasonable, but it could be lower."
