What do you like best about NetVault Backup?

Web Gui is a nice addition, better job creation and restore menu and a little easier than the older versions. We also like the performance we have now on the newer versions and how much faster you can navigate the screens and file selection process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NetVault Backup?

Seems the Cleaning tape module does not work well with a Dell TL4000 library, There is no report we can create for tapes that are purged/blanked removed from the data base - in our case we have thousands of tapes in our archive and we are purging tapes monthly however I have no record of that transaction and when I go into my Audit for SOC, HIPAA etc I have a hard time demonstrating that. With over 1.9 PiB of data on tape keeping track of every tapes life cycle is critically important to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering NetVault Backup:

reporting as we pointed out earlier is a little weak in our opinion. Also the size of the database can tend to be a little larger than one would like. Specifically a report that would show the tape number being blanked with the date and time would be fantastic Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NetVault Backup solving and how is that benefiting you?

Encryption of backups via hardware encryption - Being able to encrypt backups for customers specific data sets is nice. We can also now share encrypted backup sets with a few specific customers who also use NV. this opens up additional services we can provide our clients by archiving their data on their encrypted media in our vault.

"Netvault User"

4/5

What do you like best about NetVault Backup?

The Automatic backup system through the Locally attached storage device to the Netvault backup server.

I like most because of its interacting features like the NetVault WebUI, NetVault clients and backup storage.

The NetVault also provides an interacting WebUI that enables administrators to even monitor the data flow from the source servers to the target storage device. So that it makes our work easier in monitoring the failed jobs if any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NetVault Backup?

I do not have any negative points for the netvaults. Only suggestion I would have is, regarding increasing the speed of copy and implementing some more interactive UI in the administrative Web UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NetVault Backup solving and how is that benefiting you?

NetVault helps me take backup of my Database servers, File servers, Email servers and Virtual servers completely. So that I need not take separate tape backups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
