Cons
"They should eliminate the tape-out function from the solution."

More Dell CloudBoost Cons →

"When you add a new site for backup, it gives you a notice that there is a new site, but the way you select that and configure that could be slightly better. It works, but it is not always very clear. For example, for the URL, you need to hover over the title or the name of the site. You should see it immediately on the screen. It should have a better user interface for selecting what you want to back up so that you get a more clear overview of the sites that are there and the ones that you want to combine in a backup. Its user interface should be more user-friendly. It has a lot of scrolling and doesn't give you a complete overview when needed. That's the main thing why it is not very user-friendly. It should have a better user interface.""The solution should have backup integration features, not just concerning mail but also when it comes to such solutions as SharePoint.""The solution could improve by having the ability to back up without an agent installed on the system.""Veeam's performance is inconsistent.""Veaam Backup can be confusing for customers when they start trying to understand how to use the product in multiple environments.""Veeam is quite expensive.""The capacity storage is a challenge everywhere in the backup industry. The general feedback people are coming back to about this is that there is no deduplication based on it.""While there really is nothing wrong with the product some small improvements in the interface could make it even easier to use."
