Symantec NetBackup Appliance Review
Overall Satisfaction with Symantec NetBackup Appliance
I have been working with Veritas NetBackup for more than 10 years. It is more stable and scalable. Veritas Appliance is a single vendor approach, so end clients can contact a single vendor for all the issues and support. It can scale to the requirements of medium to enterprise sized business.
- End users can avoid all the testing phases of the software (NetBackup) and it will save their time and effort to start their backup environment.
- End users can use all the features of NetBackup . Software and hardware compatibility is verified and confirmed from Veritas. End client doesn't need to worry about the software/application(NetBackup)/OS patches.
- We cannot make an appliance in Cluster Mode.
- Cost is little bit high for a medium size business.
- Need to look for flash disks for OS for appliance which can perform with speed.
- We love Veritas and their product so I don't see any negative impact
- Deduplication
- AIR (Auto image replication
