We performed a comparison between Dell NetWorker and MSP360 Backup based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I feel that it is a good product."
"The most valuable feature is NetWorker's integration with the data domain that transfers the data directly into the Dell appliance, so the data doesn't need to pass through the network. NetWorker acts like a pipe, allowing the data to flow directly from the database or the VMware environment to the data domain."
"The interface is user-friendly and can be used by the end-users."
"The backup capabilities and the automatization of the backup - along with the potential to make the back up on a virtual machine - are the solution's most valuable aspects."
"There are no problems in terms of stability."
"Storage-wise, EMC is user-friendly."
"The best feature of Dell EMC NetWorker is its wide spectrum of available plugins for each and every software that you can back up, such as SAP HANA, Oracle, AXI-based machines, or Dell-based machines. Whatever you want to back up, you can do it with Dell EMC NetWorker. It is a very solid backup software. It is the oldest backup software from EMC, and it comes from Dell EMC's legacy."
"This solution is very stable."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b. It doesn't take an entire site up again and again. So that incremental and bit by bit backup is important, it is a nice feature here."
"Block level transfers have significantly reduced the amount of time for transfers over some other solutions"
"The UI is pretty good. It's very simple. That is one thing that we like about this. It's very user-friendly."
"Provides connectivity to a lot of different cloud storage solutions."
"The most valuable feature for me is that I can see what has has been successfully backed up and what not. I do not mean the file or folder view, because that's problematic with GDPR, but I mean which machines have successfully backed up. It's very valuable because you don't have to check the machines. The second feature is that you can change backup settings in the portal."
"It has allowed me to implement a cost effective, highly configurable solution."
"The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."
"The initial setup is complex."
"While upgrading to a new version, we encounter challenges related to specific algorithms or code regulations."
"We have faced problems with the initial configuration of the solution."
"The web console could be a lot better."
"Support is definitely an area of concern because of the time it takes to resolve our issues."
"The data storage capabilities should be improved."
"We are looking forward to better stability in future versions."
"Its console UI should be better. It should also have more out-of-the-box reporting functionalities. It should also have easier cloud integration. They have got cloud boost and things like that, but if you want to directly back up to the cloud, I'm not too sure whether you can do it. For example, you can easily send data from Commvault to AWS, Azure, or a container, but it seems to be not so easy in NetWorker."
"The interface feels like it is targeted for end users who typically are looking for an all-in-one integrated push button solution. It would be better if the interface had a beginner mode and an expert mode."
"Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service."
"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."
"The Linux GUI leaves a lot to be desired. It lacks many of the features of the Windows version and is buggy, but it is still usable."
"The restore time could improve. When we had an issue the restore time was lengthy."
"The product could be more user-friendly."
"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
