"The scalability is sometimes limited."
"Additionally, better scanning capabilities for third-party applications would ensure comprehensive security without the need for exclusions."

"The tool's configuration can be made easier."
"The price range is a little high."

"The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
"In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines."

"The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with."
