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."One of the things that I do like about it is that it has a very good deduplication feature."
"I would recommend it if there is a general case."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"Our customers are happy with the product’s functionality."
"It allows us to back up all the servers and centrally manage them."
"The product provides instant and virtual standbys."
"The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is live replication."
"The interface is very refined, works fine, and is very intuitive most of the time. Scalability is nice. The multi-tenancy feature is very welcome. The integration with Linux works fine too."
"The best point about IBM Storage Protect is that it can use IBM tape environments, which we still use and will continue to use in the future."
"The tool's backup engine is very powerful. Previously, our client finished backup with HPE product in 48 hours. IBM Storage Protect completes backup in 8 hours."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve."

"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."
"Backups are very slow and time consuming."
"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."
"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."
"We could not go into granular details of retrieving backup information."
"The product should improve its GUI. It should also support Windows clustering."
"The solution is expensive."
