If the system were to go down, we needed to make sure that the system could be recovered and available as soon as possible. Spectrum Protect provides you access to directly bind the backup volume to the server and make the system available instead of restoring it and copying the system.

When we do backups daily, we usually end up having a lot of storage being stuck with the backups and not being used. This solution optimizes storage and has very good integration features. We were using IBM Power Systems, so IBM Spectrum Protect Plus integrates well with it.

The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that the product works and helps with restoration areas whenever there is a need to restore something.

The speed of restoring from a system backup is very quick. Their ability to restore a system very quickly, within a backup window, is one of the reasons that we chose this product.

The solution integrates well with other tools. 

The most valuable features of IBM Spectrum Protect Plus are you have many possibilities on how to use it. We use it for backups and to create secondary and third copies. It is possible to pick up Kubernetes containers and use a different cloud provider if you need to start backups on the cloud.

The solution offers a quick self-deployment. Using TDP for HANA is also very valuable. They have good integration. And if sizing requiring it, it is straightforward to offload data to spectrum protect server.

Using this tool, we can easily backup and restore or recover the data for PCs and mobiles in case of system crashes.

The solution integrates with IBM Spectrum Protect. Thus, we can have version backups and enhance retention.

The most valuable feature is how we can easily power speed up the VM even though the VM resides in remote storage.

The most valuable feature of IBM Spectrum Protect Plus is its ease of use. Additionally, it does backups of all of the things we need, such as OS, files, and databases.

The most valuable feature of IBM Spectrum Protect Plus is the deduplication functionality. The clients moved to this solution originally because of this feature.

This is a multi-platform backup solution where you can take a backup from AIX, Windows, or Linux servers and restore from CD, disk, or tape. It will restore exactly, from whatever you have. It's really comfortable.

This product has no limitations.

The testing capability is good.

It can back up both VMware and Hyper-V in one console.

It can back up bare metals servers and doesn't need an agent. There is no specific limitation for backing up to either the cloud or on-premises.

The API is very good.

The duplication and compression features are included in one license.

The most valuable features are the virtual snapshots that offer incremental backups forever. 

The most valuable features are the API features because it allows you to integrate with your Microsoft SQL, your Oracle, and your IBM Db2.

This solution is very stable and has good support available online.

Some of the features we find very valuable and use a lot are retention sets. There is a lot of content validation of the data that we use, and that is very helpful. Apart from this data retention technology, Spectrum Protect duplicates things which is useful.
We have an environment that is not only the raw file system, but the databases also. Different Exchange, SQL and all these kind of different applications are integrated with the Spectrum Protect. So it's a free functional kind of environment. Other features like centralization, data retention technologies, and retention sets are the very useful in our environment.

The feature I find most valuable is the offload to Spectrum Protect for long-term retention. I think the deduplication and replication are quite nice on Plus.

We used to use the solution with tapes a few years ago. We've switched to discs, and it has gotten much faster.

You can put single items back with a certain driver. It's useful for operators maybe who don't have much of a clue about the back end.

Certainly, the data protection is the most valuable feature for using the product but the secondary functions of replication, backup and recovery, are invaluable in helping to protect the validity of the data.

What I like about IBM Spectrum Protect Plus is its integration, plus it has very good technical support.

We conducted a proof-of-concept on the customer side, and they found the product to be user-friendly and extremely useful.

Its quick deployment and backup are essential. It has nice features. It is user-friendly, it does not require a special environment to prepare the server-side, network side, and other components because everything is already included, similar to a bundle system. 

It is very simple to create and deploy.

The most valuable feature of this solution is the integration with Oracle.

The most valuable feature is the ease of use.
