"The most valuable feature is the duplication."
"The product provides instant and virtual standbys."

"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."
"Based on my experience, whenever we need support, there are difficulties with communication when trying to resolve the issue."
"A lot of their new technologies are not very good."
"We could not go into granular details of retrieving backup information."
"Backups are very slow and time consuming."
"The solution's reporting could be improved and should provide customized reports."

"The only problem with the solution is that when I change the drive capacity, it has to do a full backup. It's a problem when I have five servers to backup. When I only want to change the size of the drive, I have to do a full backup that can take one week."
