Offers good time navigation features and we haven't had stability problems in the twelve years we've been using it
The initial setup was supposed to be complex, and a guy from Atempto went to our site and they did it with us together. So, in the end, it was quite clear and straightforward. The deployment took one day. From time to time, we require maintenance. Most things can be done also automatically. We prefer to do some manually like recycling virtual cartridges. Two people are required for maintenance. Two people use it daily. Time Navigator runs daily, for some backups, even more, three, four times a day, for critical stuff. But for intervention, we have two, three per week.

Backup management excels with user-friendly interface and effective deduplication, offering robust data protection
Leveraging AI in Veritas NetBackup Appliance is one of the road maps now that they have done a collaboration with Cohesity, which is a feature I'm looking forward to. Using AI is one improvement I recommend for the Veritas NetBackup Appliance. They have implemented some aspects of AI for features such as malware detection and anomaly detection. I believe they can do more to give customers more insight into their data, allowing them to see it and understand what they can do, such as archiving old data. They can do more by utilizing the data effectively to provide insights to customers about their space usage, future projections, and options for managing old data.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The time navigation is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is very stable...The solution is very scalable."
"We find the pricing is reasonable."
"It has been our go-to product for backup."
"The customer service and support are excellent."
"The biggest advantage is that I do not need to manage backups on traditional tapes, which helps maintain total business continuity."
"The most valuable features of Veritas NetBackup Appliance are the ease of use and the familiar interface."
"The reporting is very good compared to other tools."
"The most valuable feature involves VMware Instant Recovery, which allows one to do restoration within seconds."
 

Cons

"They are working on the improvement we're looking for. The web GUI is flash-based and in around one or two months, they will put everything on HTML5."
"With technical support, it feels like they aren't well trained and it takes forever to get answers out of them."
"The product must improve its recovery features."
"More licensing options could be introduced to the software. It is currently based on capacity only. Compared to competitors, it is difficult to position it economically everywhere. From the usability point of view, they are making many improvements on new interfaces, the SaaS offering, etc."
"Depending on the setup structure, it can be complex to implement."
"The tool's pricing is expensive and could be lower."
"The hybrid model is not that efficient if we want to off-site data; it takes a lot of time to upload the data on a regular basis."
"It's hard to get to the backups. There are too many tabs."
"Technical support for this solution needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We pay annually. It is a huge figure for us."
