It has fast backup option which has helped the projects . De duplication and optimized bandwidths help getting knowledge transferred to correct spots. > > **Cons**: It did not worked on our Solaris systems which are necessary for company operations. The prices are just ok, could have been cheaper. > > The projects were made ultra fast with it's help in reliable manner as for backup and recovery. ----- ### "Great all around backup software for enterprise" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *29 June 2022* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Works with most things we need to backup that are enterprise grade. Does VMWare and traditional machine backups very well. Paired with good storage it works great. > > **Cons**: Managing existing backup sets can be a good bit of work if you need to change expiry dates, etc. Sometimes needing to use the CLI or script for a larger change. But that is very powerful also. > > Experience with Networker has been great. Easy to configure. Upgrades work well. Just need to make sure you follow best practices etc. ----- ### "Explore other options before going with Dell/EMC Networker solution" — 1.0/5 > **glen** | *27 May 2025* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Well known company. When EMC was not affiliated with Dell, the level of competent support was a big drawback > > **Cons**: support was lacking, the product was not compatibale with our infrstructure, hardware requirements. The install process was quite cumbersome. Very very expensive > > Not Satisfied. The support was lacking and the product was quite expensive. We never had any success with the procuct and it cost us and arm and a leg. ----- ### "Delivery and Support specialist at Mexico City" — 4.0/5 > **Eric** | *20 February 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Should have more easy of use to the end user due thing like migration to other OS torns like a mess, GUI has no all the functionallities and some of the commandos it only are availables at Command Line Interface > > **Cons**: Integration with some of the legacy application turns somehow complicated (in the case of SAP), if EMC Networker could offer kind of native deduplication it would becomes one of the greatest option for IT DataProtection > > most of the legacy application and Operating Systems protected for this sofware ----- ### "excellent solution for data backup" — 5.0/5 > **Miguel Angel** | *16 January 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is a very good solution to perform the backups of medium and large companies that require maintaining high SLA with excellent support > > **Cons**: Being a very robust solution, it is necessary to make the interfaces more intutive because sometimes it is a bit difficult to administer ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/307096/dell-emc-networker?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/307096/dell-emc-networker) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
