Cloud backups have simplified disaster recovery and now demand simpler first-time setup
For people looking for on-premises infrastructure with their disaster recovery in the cloud, Dell PowerProtect Cloud Snapshot can help because it is easy to recover from. Additionally, if they are trying to migrate, they can use this solution as well. However, it depends on the customer's use cases and whether they really want to spend that much money and time on it. It requires new setup, licenses, and infrastructure investments. If customers do not have the existing infrastructure, then there is no use for it. However, if a customer already has good enterprise-level infrastructure, they can integrate this solution very easily.

Simplifies backup, restore, and clone management across disparate applications and infrastructures
It's a simple solution to use. It's simple to configure everything that you need — configure your backups. It gives you an option to backup to the cloud or backup to on-premise, or to backup to cloud storage. For example, if a customer is running on Azure NetApp files or on something cloud-based that they want to back up, they have the option of bringing their own licensing and cloud controls and NetApp will give them the storage to back up for as long as they want. When deleting backups, the controls are very intuitive so not just anyone can delete the backups, only the administrator is able to do that. Backing up and restoring is simple. It's easy. It's one click of a button. It's quite good, I like it.

"The pricing is more or less the same as what we'd get from Veeam on Office 365, so it's fine."
