    If you need to send information to someone and you don't want others to see in case the wrong person gets it, that you can encrypt it and just make sure the person has the password to open it. This program makes it very easy to send emails to others and inform people when you are away and when you will be available upon return.

    We have huge data coming in from different sources and also from multiple organizations in our Data centres. This data had multiple copies of the same data and was huge in size therefore, we wanted to have a solution in place which can help us with a good amount of deduplication at the deepest possible level to make sure that our ecosystem does not have multiple copies of the same data and is also efficient at the same time. Having said this, we wanted this solution to be secure and reliable since it had to be exposed to a huge critical set of data in the market. To add, backup and restoration was something that we were also keen on evaluating so that once we have efficient data within our system, the time it takes to backup and restoration also reduces. And all this was justified by this solution when we signed up with them. From the pricing perspective and the implementation side, the solution needs improvement to make it more efficient and user-friendly.

    • It writes backups quickly. DDBoost add-on is very useful as well for improving backup speeds.
    • DD is very efficient in its use of capacity. It dedupes and compresses very well.
    • It spans to large capacity amounts.

    Cons
    OpenText
    • More vocabulary to choose from when needing a different word to complete a sentence.
    • For example, when you point the arrow over Review that a list will appear for what is listed under that section as oppose to having to click on it.
    • Have a button that you can click on to demonstration how to use something for example graphs.

    • It can be expensive to implement, especially when used in conjunction with other applications/hardware such as Avamar.
    • The TCO can be high, especially when it needs its storage expanded.
    • Recovery speeds can be slow (compared to other solutions) for when recovery is time sensitive.

    DD has performed flawlessly for almost 10 years as our backup/recovery storage with offsite replication. Given its track record and great support from EMC, we're unlikely to look elsewhere any time soon.

    Customer support has had some ups and downs here. We've had several issues with EMC support before and during the acquisition by Dell, but in the last 18 months support has been top notch. Quick and knowledgeable help is but a chat away, or they will call you back so you don't have to wait on hold. The team supporting us is responsive and is quick to assist with any request or issue.

    Super slow, often corrupted data, Carbonite is such a better engine and architecture.

    We selected Data Domain due to its integration with our backup software. The Data Domain works well for what we need it to do.

    • Helping busy staff members keep up with dates .
    • The reminders are perfect so you will not miss out on a meeting.
    • Being able to put the Team meeting on the calendar and all the person has to due to click the link to join the meeting. Fantastic!

    • We were able to immediately discontinue our remote tape storage and TBU maintenance.
    • Reduced backup footprint in the data center.
    • It is costly to expand so buy it with a purpose.
