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."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."
"I have found the product's LiveBoot feature to be most valuable."
"The configuration and the onboarding process are pretty good."
"Whenever you have a crash or your service is not working, you can just live-boot the machine and have your service up and running."
"The backup feature is most valuable. That's why we took it."
"The main feature we like about Barracuda is that we can map devices directly to the cloud. It operates as a security device to run a backup of the cloud in case one of our physical machines goes down."
"The product is easy to install and use while doing what it is expected to do."
"The scalability of the product is fine."
"Veritas NetBackup Appliance is a total backup solution. We don't have to buy other applications to do it."

"It has been our go-to product for backup."
"The tool's most valuable feature is recovery."
"It’s quite scalable."
"The tool is easy to use, stable, and performs well, but it depends on the environment where it is deployed. It is leaning more toward huge enterprises where it is positioned. It needs to be as easy as others but addresses more complex requirements."
"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."
"I have no stability issues to report...The initial setup is quite simple."
"Compared to Avamar and Data Domain (our other systems), the backup speed is slow."
"Some features like CIFS are not supported that would help speed and flexibility."
"The solution is pretty expensive. This is the usual customer complaint."
"The solution needs fine-grained backup capabilities to service individual users. But this is a minor issue considering all that the product does."
"It is not always stable."
"The web interface needs to contain a more up-to-date view of the hardware."
"I would like to see the automatic backup of critical applications to the cloud."
"When we manage the box physically, we don't have as much control as we do when we manage from the cloud. The best management is from the cloud."
"The reporting feature can be improved."
"Technical support for this solution needs to be improved."
"I would like the ability to recover a single folder within the backup of a virtual machine."
"They could simplify the process of installing, and provide more space for data during the process."
"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."
"Veritas NetBackup would benefit from better explained error codes."
"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."
