Faisal_Zia - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers efficient data management with robust features and reliable performance
Dell PowerProtect DD (Data Domain) can be improved in terms of price. While Dell is providing a proper device, other solutions, such as Symantec, can replicate their data through any NAS storage. Although their deduplication and compression might not be as effective, they can still accomplish the task. Medium-level and SME-level businesses can easily utilize this feature, but Dell PowerProtect DD (Data Domain) is a relatively expensive solution to propose to customers.

Simple to use, but the web interface needs to be improved
Imagine that you have two customers writing data to your appliance. You have two repositories, each one for each customer. If you need to know the real space used for each of them, you can't. Using the graphics and data that the appliance gives to you you are able to visualize how much space it is used on the system, as a global. There're other solutions that actually are able to do so. That's the most important thing that I miss. On another hand, I would like to see the web platform improved because it is a little bit confusing. There are options behind more and more options. If you try to get data about the performance, or research space, then it is confusing. Basically, anything to make things more clear for the user would be an improvement. And, as important as the first thing I said, technical support needs to be improved, at least in Spain.
