Rajeshk Kumar Nayak - PeerSpot reviewer
Open Shift Engineer at Dhanyaayai enterprise private limited
Centralized dashboard has simplified cloud backups and now streamlines multi-cloud data migrations
The best features NetApp BlueXP offers, in my experience, include a single dashboard for every operation, which helps reduce manual work. It has a great dashboard with better visibility and works across multiple clouds, whether in a hybrid or multiple cloud environments. The dashboard helps my team day-to-day by providing a very easy-to-use UI that is not too complex. We can easily add cloud details, create buckets, and manage all the information for backup. The operations are GUI-based, making it very helpful for configuring these tasks without using complex CLI commands. NetApp BlueXP positively impacts my organization by providing good integration with NetApp storage including ONTAP and Trident, along with built-in monitoring and alerts. It saves a lot of time and reduces the in-field engineers' costs.
