Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, NetApp and others in Deduplication Software."The SnapMirror is a good tool because, as long as you're going NetApp to NetApp, it's ultimately the fastest way to move data. We replicate everything to another site for disaster recovery."
"Ability to use mirroring and SnapVault have made backup no longer necessary."
"The migration of the volume on the cluster is very useful and easy to use."
"The initial setup was so straightforward. It was well-documented."
"A reliable and easily managed storage system is a key performance factor. The system also has more features than we require."
"It offers data compression and people management."
"We can manage our applications from a single dashboard."
"It is good to have a unified storage where you can have block and file level protocols."
"DLO: Client for laptops."
"Deduplication is quite efficient. It is not a complex product. It is quite simple."
"The most valuable feature is the trouble-free operation, as we have not had many problems with it."
"I like the virtual server backup."
"The features are good."
"We believe that everything Veritas NetBackup offers, including backups, snapshots, deduplication, and replication, is valuable."
"It has been around for so long, and it is very in-depth. It has a solution for everything that you can cover."
"I like the cross-platform features."
"Technical support needs to be improved, as there are no longer partners in our country."
"Interfacing with the cloud environment could be better. I want to be able to move some cloud volume and integrate it seamlessly with my home on-premise storage. Sometimes I have issues with port permissions. NetApp probably needs to improve more on the integration side from on-premise to the cloud."
"NetApp FAS Series should introduce an FTP application for the broadcast and post-production market."
"We have some experience with older equipment end-of-life. For example, when warranty support stops or updates stop – it can be frustrating. Not all clients can buy a new filer every year or two, and NetApp ending support a bit quickly can be a concern."
"As I see it, there could be more interfaces, more cache, etc."
"The solution's configuration is not flexible."
"The high cost of the product is an area of concern, so from an improvement perspective, the tool needs to be made cheaper."
"There are some technical limitations, but it would be great to have in-line deduplication and in-line compression for the FAS series as well."
"This solution would benefit from a more friendly, web-based interface."
"You cannot tell what your costs are going to be by using the dashboard, which is something that should be improved."
"Within their product lineup, they need to consolidate down to one product. Veritas doesn't have one product that does everything. So, Veritas can do everything, but you basically need to run two products. I would like them to combine all the capabilities into one release."
"The solution's technical support process should be improved."
"This product would be improved with the inclusion of a Sandbox feature like Veeam Sandbox."
"Extra features come with additional costs."
"It gets a lot of new features, but improvements in basic functionality are often sacrificed for a shiny new bullet point to put on sales presentations."
"Improvements can be made to the service by providing better and more competitive ratios on data backups. The functionality for backups is there with Veritas, but I would like to see them optimize and enhance this feature more."
