Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Simple, stable and straightforward."
"Good scalability and virtual environment protection."
"The extensive information provided on tool properties has been very useful, specifically the information on databases"
"Very user-friendly with a good interface."
"The software implementation takes about 30 minutes."
"The best feature is the DR replication for us."
"It has the ability to support all kinds of backups. It can be used to back up databases, operating systems, virtual machines, Lotus Notes, and Exchange. It can also do remote image backups for remote sites. It integrates and works with Data Domain. It is an enterprise-class product that can be used for anything and everything across multiple sites and locations. It is also very scalable."
"I started off as a storage engineer and ended up owning Dell EMC Data Domain and Dell EMC NetWorker. I've not used any other backup solutions at this scale. Dell EMC NetWorker does what I need it to do, it's efficient."
"Scalability is very good."
"One feature that works well for us is that the Cloud Manager is a completely agentless solution. There's a similar dashboard on both the versions for on-premises and the cloud, and with reference to the Cloud Manager, it's a little faster because there's nothing to be installed as such. Being agentless, it doesn't require any agent to be deployed on the targets where the backups are triggered."
"NetApp Cloud Backup performance is good and they have beneficial technology."
"While upgrading to a new version, we encounter challenges related to specific algorithms or code regulations."
"he API side of the solution has certain shortcomings."
"The process of upgrading versions should be improved because as it is now, you have to completely uninstall the old version first, and then install the new version."
"The licensing rules are difficult to navigate and understand."
"It would be beneficial to have a single user interface for all of the features."
"I haven't had a good experience with technical support. It takes them a very long time to resolve issues."
"Support is definitely an area of concern because of the time it takes to resolve our issues."
"It's complex in nature."
"One area that can be improved is around how we define the different KPIs. In particular, the business KPIs. I have my own in-house application for the business KPIs, so for example, with our policies around retention, which is a period of seven years, I have to read these parameters from other applications and I need them to integrate well."
"Integration and reporting could be improved."
"NetApp Cloud Backup could improve by being easier to use. Veeam solution is easier to use."
