We performed a comparison between ExaGrid EX and NetApp AltaVault based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Disk Based Backup Systems solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of ExaGrid EX are the Veeam features and Landing Zone."
"Both the pricing and the performance are excellent."
"It's pretty simple. Once you set it, it goes; and then the idea of being able to get it to the cloud very quickly. It's kind of a set-it-forget-it."
"Most importantly is having that island into that datacenter, and being able to address things in the same console. Thus, it is irrelevant where it's stored."
"The deduplication engine. Right now, we're at about 10.5 to 11 times deduplication of our backup data."
"The solution can be used for all Office 365 applications."
"Its initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is easy to use and integrate with whichever operating systems you use, providing you with a complete view, especially when you plan to migrate to some other operating system."
"It's so easy to work with."
"The solution is very easy to use and it offers great support."
"The solution’s web access should be improved."
"I would like to see free disk space."
"There are some bits it could do better. With tighter integration maybe with Veeam, or something like that, it'd be really good."
"More capacity with the basic model of the AltaVault would probably help out."
"The solution needs faster indexing."
"The initial setup phase of the tool was difficult."
"More than a 500 volume limit. At the moment, it only supports up to 500 volumes for SnapMirror and that's a problem. We've got 750, so a larger limit for volume replicas for SnapMirror."
"I really want to partner it with the SnapCenter. We haven't implemented that yet. We're upgrading all of our stuff to the ONTAP 9, which you had to have."
"It's a good product, but it's becoming outdated and moving to their other primary architecture."
"It would be nice if the solution was more complete. Many customers are looking for a single solution or silo that they can manage everything from. It would be nice, instead of having different products, if everything a client needed was in one solution."
