    Chose Dell Networker
    Our trust in DataDomain as a premier deduplication technology naturally leads to [Dell EMC] Networker being the appropriate backup application to integrate with. Networker provides the most favorable dedup with DataDomain when compared to other backup technologies, and provides …

    Chose Dell Networker
    I've used many DR platforms over the years: HP Data Protector, Veritas (formerly Symantec) Backup Exec, Acronis Backup Advanced, AppAssure (another Dell product), Commvault, and a few others. We selected Networker based on its integration with the Data Domain hardware we wanted …

    Chose Dell Networker
    Networker appears to be decent against NetBackup and Backup Exec as far as policy-based backup solutions are concerned and for stability. But it isn't as close to the virtualization layer as Veeam is and is not as feature rich as CommVault is, especially as it relates to …

    Avamar is better but expensive
    Veeam, most suited for VM backup, doesn't work too well with the rest of backups\applications

    Chose Veeam Data Platform
    VS Networker, its hands down better with support and ease of use. It also has many more features.

    Vs Backup Exec, its much less confusing to use as Backup Exec doesn't have an intuitive interface. It also, like Networker, has many more features than Backup Exec.

    Chose Veeam Data Platform
    • We published all desired features for taking the backup of Virtual Machines with speed. Utilize data domain storage as well as other low-cost storage and also take the backup of NAS (file level).
    • Veeam Backup & Replication won the competition reasonably even on the technical …

    Chose Veeam Data Platform
    Definitely Veeam Backup & Replication is on top in ranking due to 100% reliable backups, excellent RTO and RPO, and fast and flexible recovery. The added advantages are taking backups of Active Directory servers, Exchange servers, Database servers, application servers, web …

    Chose Veeam Data Platform
    Number one reason we chose Veeam Backup & Replication: simple to implement and use. With a workload that is almost entirely virtualized, deployment was forgettably simple. Early on I worried quite a bit as we onboarded new systems and reconfigured management server options, but …

    Chose Veeam Data Platform
    Netbackup - Veeam ended up being much less expensive than NBU and also didn't require an agent like NBU did. Networker - Veeam was much simpler and easier to use.

    Chose Veeam Data Platform
    It is faster, easier, and much more reliable to use than Networker. Networker was not even close to a real backup solution compared to Veeam for our needs. If you buy an older backup system expect it to do well at one thing, back up older systems. If you buy Veeam expect it …
