Positive impacts seen with improved data security and reliable support
I have six months of experience with the product, and as a consultant, the use cases for NetApp AltaVault mainly stand out for me. Regarding the deduplication feature in the product, I am interested in whether clients are using it. There are different integrations available with NetApp AltaVault, such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and I want to understand how they impact data security policies in my case.

Veeam Backup for Google Cloud provides significant cost reduction with NETIO Cloud's offering. It serves as a reliable solution for backup and reporting capabilities about the health of the backups. Even though I am not utilizing all tools and options, it meets my comprehensive requirements and allows backup of emails as well, making it a versatile tool.

Pros

"The solution is very easy to use and it offers great support."

Cons

"More capacity with the basic model of the AltaVault would probably help out."
"There are some bits it could do better. With tighter integration maybe with Veeam, or something like that, it'd be really good."
"What could be helpful is different user base authentication so then maybe we could allow different customers to point to a single appliance and they only see the backups and things that they have."
"It's a good product, but it's becoming outdated and moving to their other primary architecture."
"The initial installation is difficult for my clients who have it on both on-premises and on cloud."
"The initial setup phase of the tool was difficult."
"The product must provide multi-gate connectivity."
"I would like to see more web support."
"I do not have notes for improvements."

"There could be a feature to take a snapshot for version backup."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You could compare it to a Dell EMC or ECS, and I think it's probably a little less costly than that. Within the marketplace, it's a medium cost."
"The price is a bit high."
"There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution, which comes to around 3,000 USD."
"The pricing is not too bad, but could be a little better."
"It's quite cost-effective."
"In one use case, and we have several, to run for a particular customer, the price is about $375,000 a year."
