"The user interface is very good. The reporting and monitoring features are also good."
"It is almost perfect for Microsoft products. It is not a very powerful tool, but it is okay for small sites and small businesses with Microsoft products. It is easy to use for backup and restore. It is good for backing up Microsoft servers such as Exchange and SharePoint servers."
"The initial setup is quite straightforward."
"The solution backs up Microsoft workloads as well as anything on the market."
"The automated procedure is quite good for us, as it is able to capture all of the information that we require."
"The most valuable feature is the recovery."
"This solution helps us to manage all of the operations across servers and different workstations."
"Microsoft DPM is scalable."
"I would like to see more improvement in the GUI."
"Microsoft DPM could improve if it was available in a public or private cloud."
"You have only a few settings and if you change them for some special configurations, it's very difficult."
"The user friendliness could be improved."
"It needs portability for other vendors. It is good for backing up Microsoft servers, but it doesn't support third-party solutions such as Oracle Database. It depends on Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy, especially for Hyper-V, which has a lot of problems. They should enhance the Volume Shadow Copy functionality. Its reporting should also be better. Reporting is too weak in DPM."
"Compatibility and integration with other products needs improvement."
"The problem lies with the 2019 version, it's the file system they’re using."
"Additional Hyper-V knowledge would be great."
"It would be better if it integrated seamlessly with open source and competitor products. In the next release, I would like to see some data governance frameworks. It should have support features for data integration and data replication like Veeam. Right now, we are also using Veeam for certain scenarios."
