Cons
"The user interface is hard to use, it should be simplified. There are a lot of web-based management interfaces which they should consider.""I would like to see better support for the container systems, and we would like to see more support for image backups instead of pure file backups.""We are looking forward to better stability in future versions.""Dell NetWorker could improve the GUI to include rack recovery.""Reporting and support for this product need to be improved. There are multiple bugs that need to be fixed.""There should be more vendors incorporated into the solution.""There could be a possibility of constructing full backups from incremental data intelligently.""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."
