Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The command-line interface is good.""The cataloging is the best feature. It takes millions of frames for the backup. It's incremental, so it takes less time to complete.""The most valuable features are the Self-Service, and the ability to search the data.""The solution is highly stable.""Overall IBM ProtectTIER is a great solution. It is easy to use.""In terms of stability, I've found it to be very stable. I've walked into the server room when it was at 60 degrees Celcius, and it was still running fine."

"The most valuable features are the ease of administration and the ease of configuration.""I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope.""It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field.""The solution's hardware appliance is very scalable and very useful.""The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature.""he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources.""It's a good solution.

Cons
"Setting up the system to work with legacy equipment is a bit complex at times.""The configuration wizards are still complex and hard to navigate. These should be easier to manage.""The backup for a large amount of data is slow.""IBM ProtectTIER could improve by being more user-friendly.""I would like the possibility to back up the infrastructure and then replicate it upon on restart, without having to orchestrate the starting of the VM."

More IBM ProtectTIER Cons →

"Licensing has been a struggle. It went from bronze, silver to gold. Licensing needs more sophistication. It has features that are sold as separate add-ons.""The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching.""The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement.""Technical support can be improved.""An area for improvement is the product's performance, especially how long it takes to do a job.""Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS.""The implementation could be improved. The server setup is very easy, but some specific client implementation, for example, Oracle or SQL servers, are a little bit complicated. they should offer a bit more assistance with the setup for these particular items.""In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines."
