Veritas NetBackup Appliance Reviews

Veritas NetBackup Appliance's most valuable feature is information backup. It works fast to back up and restore the data using snapshots.

There are a few people in Veritas NetBackup Appliance's community support. In case of technical issues, it becomes difficult to find solutions from other users. They should improve this area so that customers can resolve issues correctly. Additionally, an auto command feature could be included in it, similar to Rubrik.

We have been using Veritas NetBackup Appliance for one year.

The product is stable compared to Veeam.

It is a scalable platform. We have less than 20 users for it in our organization. At present, we are evaluating the virtualized infrastructure. Based on the report, we will decide on expansion.

The technical support services could be better. 

The product's price is high. Although, we need to buy appliances, which makes the pricing competitive compared to Rubrik and Veeam.

It can restore data in case of any crisis. They should improve security features for ransomware attacks similar to Rubrik. I never encountered any event of malicious activity using Rubrik.

I rate Veritas NetBackup Appliance a seven out of ten.

I use the solution for my organization.

The product enables me to recover the information of the appliances in the organization.

The product must improve its recovery features. It must also improve the use cases of the product.

I have been using the solution for two years.

I rate the tool’s stability a nine out of ten.

I rate the tool’s scalability a seven out of ten.

The initial setup was straightforward.

The pricing could be better. Renewing subscriptions for appliance support is costly.

ExaGrid provides more features than NetBackup Appliance.

The scalability of the appliance is good, but it can be better. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

I have experience with Netbackup and Veeam Backup.

In my previous company, we were implementors, and we would set up this solution on-site for clients. 

In my previous company, we were partners with Veritas. We were implementing the solutions of Veritas at our customers' premises.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

For me, the main use case was as an on-premise data center backup, mainly in the Unix space with Oracle. That was the main reason to use it. I know it's got a capability in the cloud, however, we haven't used it in the cloud.

The consistency of using it over a long period of time has been excellent. The big one for me is when you're dealing with database backups, particularly. I’ve used it for Oracle and SAN, and I’ve used it a lot. It’s been great.

The solution is stable.

It’s quite scalable.

Depending on the setup structure, it can be complex to implement.

In my case, it's an enterprise environment, and they're always complicated. There's no way to get around there. With Backup Exec, everything is on Windows, and you don't have to worry about it. However, if there's going to be a critical Oracle database on the Unix system and then you're going to have new Windows and the Linux, it is going to be complicated. There's no way around it, particularly with the customers.

I’ve used the solution on and off for 20 years. It’s been a very long time.

I'd say it's very stable. I use it specifically for enterprise customers. Small customers use Backup Exec. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn’t crash or freeze.

The product is extremely scalable. Expanding is not an issue at all.

We’re a large SME. 1,000 people or more are using it.

In my new role, I have no plans to increase usage.

Tech support has usually been good when we've had disasters, or we need to do recovery. Support has been good and we’ve been able to get access to them. We’ve been satisfied with their level of assistance overall.

With NetBackup, just setting it out to different server times and nothing else is okay. Other things are a bit more complicated.

That said, it’s been eight years since I’ve done a live deployment. We got the appliance and had to set everything up.

I was working with a consultant on the last setup I did.

I’m not sure what the latest pricing models are.

I mainly use the on-premies version of the deployment. I don’t typically deal with cloud deployment.

We’re always using the latest version of the solution.

I would recommend the solution to others for enterprise on-premise.

I would rate the solution seven out of ten.

I mainly use NetBackup Appliance for daily routine backup.

NetBackup Appliance's most valuable feature is the duplication encryption standard feature. Its interface is also intuitive and easy to use.

I've been working with Veritas NetBackup Appliance for three years.

NetBackup Appliance is stable.

NetBackup Appliance is scalable.

Veritas' technical support is good.

The initial setup was easy, and it took a couple of days to onboard all my private cloud work resources that needed to be backed up. 

NetBackup Appliance's pricing is reasonable, but it could be lower.

If you're considering implementing NetBackup Appliance, initial capacity sizing will save you a lot of hassle. I would give NetBackup Appliance a rating of eight out of ten.

The most valuable feature of the Veritas NetBackup Appliance is the virtual machine backups.

I have found Veritas NetBackup Appliance to be scalable.

They provide a good level of support.

The initial setup is straightforward.

This solution is expensive.

The main difference between Veritas Netbackup and NetBackup Appliance is the NetBackup Appliance provides the built-up system. They have one operating system and they have their own storage in the network of the appliances. We can use our external storage. For example, we can use our storage from Dell, IBM, any other vendor. These are the main differences, with Appliances, everything is in-built.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Veritas NetBackup Appliance an eight out of ten.

The solution is primarily used for business continuity. We use it for backups.

The backup capabilities are very good.

We find the ability to allow for business continuity to be very helpful. Our systems are not very stable, where we come from here in Kenya. There can be serious problems very often. There are many incidents and businesses can just collapse. The peace of mind of having a backup on hand is critical.

The initial setup is very simple.

As an established brand, Veritas has a very good technical support team. We are quite pleased with the level of service provided. They are helpful and supportive. The staff is knowledgeable. 

It's my understanding that the initial setup is straightforward. I have not seen anything about the solution that would make the process overly complex.

The pricing is fair. It's not overly expensive. 

At the moment, I don't have any relationship with the company, however, I would like to be a reseller and implementer.

I mainly handle consultancy on business continuity. I look at products to propose to my customers on business continuity, storage, and backups.

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten.

We use Veritas NetBackup Appliance for backing up data for many environments, such as system backups.

This is a good backup interconversion solution because all the masters and the targets backups are on the same system. It is easy to administrate for a single point of access for clients. 

The solution could improve by providing more integration and security.

I have been using this solution for more than five years.
