We performed a comparison between DD Boost and Quantum DXi Series based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Deduplication Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of this solution is deduplication."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"Data Domain is valuable, especially to restore data. For normal data, the restore from Data Domain is very efficient and fast."
"DD Boost's best features are deduplication and compression."
"The backup aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"The traditional storage node and VPN setups are still viable options, but DD Boost offers a premium option with additional advantages. If available, adopting DD Boost can be a good choice."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it can support both the CIFS and NFS protocols simultaneously."
"The solution is very good because it is easy to use and it speeds up the backup and lowers the requirement for the storage rate. It is capable of encryption, compression, and deduplication and it is fast for sending all of the data over the network because it sends only the change blocks from the client to the DD server."
"While the challenges posed by the difficulties were significant, they prompted the replacement of problematic components, resulting in the resolution of issues. Importantly, there were no substantial ongoing concerns. Regarding the overall performance, it has been consistently excellent."
"I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas."
"The main issue I've identified is that when backing up a final backup from the branch server, we don't have deduplication functionality."
"It would be nice if they could have the same tool set right from the smallest to the biggest modules, but being specific frame dependent."
"It should be expanded to include other databases and software. It should also be made easier to restore."
"I'd like the be able to deploy the solution on SAN backups."
"The solution could always be cheaper."
"This product is expensive compared to other storage so the price can be improved."
"DD Boost needs to improve its interface. It should be easier to use."
"The solution doesn't scale. If you hit your capacity, you need to buy a new device."
"Perhaps the most notable area for enhancement lies in the web interface for management. The current limitations in LDAP editing capabilities are not addressed in the UI, and I haven't observed any recent updates. It's possible that the new version of the DXI service incorporates improvements in the GUI, but I cannot confirm. While there is room for improvement in the current GUI, it remains a relatively minor issue. Overall, the system is comprehensive, covering aspects such as reports on latency and networking, leaving little room for additional enhancements in those areas."
"The product needs to improve performance while scaling out. It also needs to improve stability."
