Source based deduplication is the most attractive feature as it drastically reduces the backup window.
Dell Avamar offers robust source-based deduplication and scalability, effectively reducing backup windows and bandwidth needs. High compression ratios ensure reliable enterprise-level operations, while integration with Data Domain enhances capabilities for VM stacks. Instant recovery and centralized automation streamline processes. However, improvements in desktop-laptop backups, flexibility in licensing, compatibility with Hyper-V, and integration with third-party platforms are needed. The discontinuation of the hardware version impacts appliance-based users.
