Find out in this report how the two Deduplication Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Scalable and stable solution for backup purposes, with good encryption and huge data conversion features."
"The traditional storage node and VPN setups are still viable options, but DD Boost offers a premium option with additional advantages. If available, adopting DD Boost can be a good choice."
"DD Boost can stack backups on the servers, optimizing backup storage utilization. All resources are utilized efficiently. Without such optimization, backup processes can lead to bottlenecks or excessive resource utilization, impacting server services."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is deduplication."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it can support both the CIFS and NFS protocols simultaneously."
"There are no limitations when it comes to the scalability feature of the product. You can scale up or scale down however much you want."
"The functionality is very good. DD Boost and DD entry replication are used in almost all backup concepts. Those are the most used features."
"Operationally, we are satisfied as there have been no issues or closures to report."
"While the challenges posed by the difficulties were significant, they prompted the replacement of problematic components, resulting in the resolution of issues. Importantly, there were no substantial ongoing concerns. Regarding the overall performance, it has been consistently excellent."
"I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas."
"DD Boost needs to improve its interface. It should be easier to use."
"DD Boost could improve the solution by offering additional customizations that build upon existing features such as deduplication ratios. The primary objective of the solution is to create backups of existing data and push that data out to clients' backup systems. If they can make the process faster and introduce more enhancements, it would greatly benefit the backup environment."
"This product is expensive compared to other storage so the price can be improved."
"Integration could be better."
"When my company faced a problem with the product, it took some time to get proper support."
"The solution must provide better deduplication."
"DD Boost's technical support could be better."
"There are limitations when using the VTL protocol in extreme cases."
"The product needs to improve performance while scaling out. It also needs to improve stability."
"Perhaps the most notable area for enhancement lies in the web interface for management. The current limitations in LDAP editing capabilities are not addressed in the UI, and I haven't observed any recent updates. It's possible that the new version of the DXI service incorporates improvements in the GUI, but I cannot confirm. While there is room for improvement in the current GUI, it remains a relatively minor issue. Overall, the system is comprehensive, covering aspects such as reports on latency and networking, leaving little room for additional enhancements in those areas."
