Who is it for?
Dell PowerProtect MAKES sense when:
- • You have large data volumes (TB/PB) - deduplication is key
- • You need cyber recovery vault
- • You have Dell infrastructure (servers, storage)
- • Enterprise with compliance requirements
Dell PowerProtect DOESN'T make sense when:
- • Small business with few servers
- • Limited budget - appliances are expensive
