Cons
"It could be more user-friendly.""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 UI is not user-friendly.""The user interface of this solution could be improved. It is not user friendly and is difficult to understand for new users. New users struggle to understand the logic.""The end-user experience is not good.""When you're working with VMware, you need to use vProxy machines. You have to install the vProxy for every host in the VMware environment.""Reporting and support for this product need to be improved. There are multiple bugs that need to be fixed.""We are looking forward to better stability in future versions."
