Senior Specialist Backup/Storage at National Bank of Kuwait

Has supported flexible multi-platform backups and improved over time

Regarding the effectiveness of Dell NetWorker in terms of role-based access controls, I have experience with it, but I find it somewhat lacking in flexibility as it offers limited features, and I would rate it around seven out of ten. It is not that there is something wrong with the role-based access controls in Dell NetWorker, but it lacks many permissions or roles to assign, providing options only for administrator or user. To improve Dell NetWorker for the next release, I recommend enhancing flexibility in the policy, allowing selection of multiple options within the same policy, and addressing issues like the DNS lookup dependency to make it more controllable from Dell NetWorker itself rather than relying on other applications. Looking forward, I would like to see improved policy features and a more enhanced GUI, as it is still slow.

An affordable product that offers a reasonably good technical support

I rate the product's initial setup phase an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup phase, and ten is an easy setup phase. The product's installation phase took me around two weeks. On average, it usually takes about a week or two to deploy when everything is in place. The solution is deployed on a hybrid cloud from Azure.

More Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup [EOL] pros

Cons

"Dell NetWorker could improve the GUI to include rack recovery."

"We encountered challenges during the solution's deployment, particularly integrating our database system and Microsoft Exchange. This area needs improvement."

"The product should provide integration with AWS."

"The interface is the same, so when we are trying to troubleshoot the logs, it doesn't display properly."

"There could be a possibility of constructing full backups from incremental data intelligently."

"The implementation was difficult and, due to some reason, it was not done properly and we had to suffer a lot."

"It is not easy to understand. It's not easy to deploy."

"he API side of the solution has certain shortcomings."

More Dell NetWorker cons

"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for the telecom, government, and banking sectors is relatively affordable."

"The pricing of the solution is not the cheapest compared to other similar solutions. The Networker is available as a component of the Dell EMC Data Protection Suite package and it should have the ability to be purchased separately."

"The tool is pricey."

"Low cost is key."

"The price of the license could be cheaper and it would be a benefit if they came up with a new pricing model. The competitors here in Oman sell universal licensing where a number of virtual machines are hosted at the customer place which can be licensed, or you can license the CPU sockets in those servers. However, NetWorker offers only CPU sockets or overall storage capacity to backup, but there is no universal licensing where you can provide a number of VMs. They should offer more options to stay competitive with other solutions, such as Veeam."

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."

"They are not cheap."

"Licensing is based on the number of terabytes, so you need to purchase packages."

More Dell NetWorker pricing and cost advice

"Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup is fairly priced."

"I rate the pricing a five out of ten because the price is average."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is affordable or low, and ten is expensive or high, I rate the price as two."

"While Nutanix Mine is extremely expensive for small businesses, it is a very cost-effective product for enterprise businesses."
