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."The solution is stable."
"The possibility of recovering up-to-the-moment data is very useful."
"It is scalable software. All you need to increase is its RAM and CPU. It's pretty easy."
"NetWorker is fast and reliable."
"The full backup is a great feature. Restoration is also good and very quick."
"It is an extremely stable product."
"NetWorker has very good scalability."
"The best feature of Dell EMC NetWorker is its wide spectrum of available plugins for each and every software that you can back up, such as SAP HANA, Oracle, AXI-based machines, or Dell-based machines. Whatever you want to back up, you can do it with Dell EMC NetWorker. It is a very solid backup software. It is the oldest backup software from EMC, and it comes from Dell EMC's legacy."
"The product could be improved if they wrote more PowerShell scripts for controlling Veeam."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup & Replication is that we can back up in-house and multiple cloud providers' storage."
"In terms of most valuable features, we are mostly using the Cloud Connect feature. It is flexible because you can use it on-prem and on cloud."
"Veeam is the gold standard for backup and recovery. The ease of use and reliability of this solution are real assets. Also, it has an ease of use to work with a third party vendor."
"The user interface is good and it is very easy to use."
"The solution is a user-friendly interface."
"If you have a lot of central sites and remote sites, you can easily set up the replication and make it easier."
"The integration of Veeam Backup Replication is very good."
"The data storage capabilities should be improved."
"It's not easy to integrate. We have to read a lot of documentation in order to configure the solution."
"The price could be cheaper."
"Support is definitely an area of concern because of the time it takes to resolve our issues."
"The user interface has to be improved"
"While upgrading to a new version, we encounter challenges related to specific algorithms or code regulations."
"The end-user experience is not good."
"There are some limitations regarding scalability of the product."
"We would like to have the ability to perform more things on the web interface. The heavy client is still needed to perform advanced tasks."
"In the future, Veeam should release a hardware backup appliance that can be integrated with their software."
"The data duplication should be improved."
"The implementation of the features can be improved. Currently, there is no segregation of duty. Normally, any backup software or client service software is implemented in a way where one person is responsible for the implementation of the server, and one is responsible for the client, but Veeam Backup & Replication is not implemented in that way. Therefore, restores don't work like that. The backup guys have to do the restores, which is not a good thing. Its pricing should also be improved. It is quite expensive."
"Scalability, as well as licensing costs, need to be improved."
"In the next release, I would like replication directly to the cloud to be included."
"I would like to see a storage application in the next version of the product."
"Its import and export processes for information and policies could be better."
