Ahmed Handal - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhanced data retention and recovery with robust backup features
The Oracle Agent and Oracle RAC support are valuable features; they are crucial for taking backups and cloning applications. NetBackup Appliance has many features. Backup Exec is a great product as well. NetBackup is well-developed with strong features, including deduplication technology, which allows us to retain backups for longer periods—exceeding our expectations by keeping backups for almost a month. It's effective for data recovery and capable of handling large-scale data recoveries. It is very stable and keeps applications secure. However, the AI integration is not yet tested.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
"The tool is easy to use, stable, and performs well, but it depends on the environment where it is deployed. It is leaning more toward huge enterprises where it is positioned. It needs to be as easy as others but addresses more complex requirements."
"The biggest advantage is that I do not need to manage backups on traditional tapes, which helps maintain total business continuity."
"It is very capable of scaling and very good for heterogeneous environments."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it can be used in many different kinds of systems."
"The solution is very scalable."
"Installing this solution is very simple and takes perhaps five or ten minutes."
"The standout feature is its connectivity and robust support. They are easily easy to get hold of, making it convenient for us."
"The Veritas NetBackup Appliance is convenient because it’s a portable device and doesn’t require a lot of additional hardware or licenses like VPN solutions."
 

Cons

"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"More licensing options could be introduced to the software. It is currently based on capacity only. Compared to competitors, it is difficult to position it economically everywhere. From the usability point of view, they are making many improvements on new interfaces, the SaaS offering, etc."
"The costing part is on the higher side. The reporting could also be improved."
"The upgrade process of the solution needs to be improved since it is extremely complicated, especially without the benefit of a support person who can guide one through it."
"I would like to see a product that requires less expertise to manage it."
"One area needing improvement is to facilitate Oracle database restores using the GUI on the NetBackup Appliance."
"Sometimes, the user interface doesn't work smoothly."
"The scalability could be improved."
"With technical support, it feels like they aren't well trained and it takes forever to get answers out of them."
