We performed a comparison between NetApp SnapCenter and Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."A feature that stands out is cloning databases. If you have a SQL database and it's huge, like one terabyte, the classical SQL way would be to do a backup-restore to create a clone of your database for test purposes. With SnapCenter now, we can clone a database but through the Snapshot technology, which means if you right-click and you click Clone, the one terabyte database is there instantly."
"The Exchange plugin is the most valuable because we have a lot of customers that use SnapManager Exchange and have to migrate to SnapCenter."
"The most valuable feature is the RBAC, the Role-Based Access Control. In our managed service, we can have different layers of security."
"Most banks and financial institutions use the solution."
"I like the instant backups and recovery feature that SnapCenter provides within NetApp storage systems."
"It's a centralized, easy-to-use solution empowering RBAC management, monitoring, notifications, extensive logging, and backup schedules for standalone as well as groups of the same types of environments. The cloning capabilities accelerate development."
"It's very helpful because SnapCenter is already integrated with VMware Snapshot, so it's very easy to use."
"Technical support has been very helpful when we have issues."
"We use this solution as an integrated backup solution and it is integrated from the backup provider to the Nutanix solution."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"Nutanix has its own backup system known as HYCU, as well as its own virtual server."
"Nutanix can converge legacy-style rack mount servers, so it is highly scalable."
"We find the ease of use valuable."
"I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the solution."
"I feel a little bit that during the whole process of putting this software into production we were like a beta program. It was full of bugs... For example, we had a problem with truncating our Exchange log files... It has improved over time."
"Some of the minor functionalities from SnapManager did not transfer over to SnapCenter. These should be added in future releases."
"We have experience some difficulties with our current support. We are engaging in engineering level support because some of our problems are more technical."
"If it was possible to create backups on non-NetApp storage, that would be helpful."
"Reporting of the jobs could be better."
"The DBAs are comparing it to SMO but it doesn't have a lot of the functionalities that SMO has."
"Groups might be helpful for each site or data center so that we know a given data center has these resources while another data center has those resources. It's not always easy to group hosts by type."
"We have hundreds of servers and systems and hundreds of customers and they're separated in a multi-tenancy way in NetApp SVM. Right now, the problem is that it always scan all SVMs. If I backup Customer A, it scans all SVMs, or tries to scan all SVMs, if there is a backup relationship on the storage. But it doesn't have the permissions, so we run into timeouts or the backup just takes too long. They're fixing that in the upcoming release..."
"It could be cheaper."
"The solution's setup process should be simplified."
"The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."
"This solution could be improved with regards to the hosts that integrate with the platform itself. Each of the hosts integrated with the storage and networking only provide one instance of a backup."
"I would like to see the multi-cloud improve."
