| Author info | Rating | Review Summary |
|---|---|---|
| System and Cloud Deployment Engineer at Safaricom Ethiopia plc | 4.5 | I use Dell NetWorker for its customizable support with open-source databases like PostgreSQL, saving costs and streamlining recovery. While I find the integration great, the support could improve. It surpasses solutions like Veeam for open-source environments. |
| Sr. Area Technical Manager at tata elxsi | 4.5 | We primarily use Dell NetWorker for file and database backup in the automobile industry. The deduplication and staging features efficiently manage disk space and our retention policy. We've been loyal for over twenty years, seeing a good return on investment. |
| System Engineer at NCCPL | 3.5 | I use Dell NetWorker for server and file system backups, appreciating its restoration capabilities and client management. However, the installation process is complex, and synchronization with IBM technologies can be problematic, causing errors with our tape library backups. |
| Solution Architect at Apollo Telecom | 4.5 | I primarily use Dell NetWorker for backup in my company. It integrates well with Avamar and Data Domain, offering valuable automation features like replication, but its GUI needs improvement compared to competitors. Price is a significant consideration. |
| Senior Architect at NXP Semiconductors Netherlands B.V. Internet EMEA | 3.5 | I've found Dell NetWorker affordable with good support, but it lacks scalability and seamless integration with Oracle and Microsoft. I'm still evaluating its customization and performance while comparing it with alternatives like Veritas NetBackup. |
| Senior Manager of Operations at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees | 4.0 | We use Dell NetWorker to back up 90% of our virtualized infrastructure, benefiting from its efficient change block backup. While the product is valuable, it needs improvement in cloud integration to compete with other solutions like Cohesity and Rubrik. |
| Program Manager at ITC | 4.0 | In our organization, we use Dell NetWorker to manage and restore data, appreciating its reliability, performance, and encryption. However, its support often requires experienced personnel. I previously used Veeam, noting its high data compression ratio before switching. |
| Assistant Vice President at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees | 3.0 | We use Dell NetWorker solely for backing up our core banking Oracle database with RMAN. It offers faster backup and storage. However, managing it is challenging compared to Commvault, which is easier but limited to less preferred Windows servers. |
