The cataloging is the best feature. It takes millions of frames for the backup. It's incremental, so it takes less time to complete.
IBM ProtectTIER is noted for high stability even in extreme conditions, robust command-line interface, and ease of use. It excels in cataloging and efficiently handles millions of frames for backups, saving time with incremental backups. However, configuration wizards and setting up with legacy equipment can be complex, and backups for large amounts of data are slow. IBM ProtectTIER could improve in user-friendliness and easier configuration management.
