We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

Pros
"I like the tool's CloudIQ feature.""The stability is quite good. Once you deploy all the equipment, it's very stable.""The storage has been good.""I find this solution to be cost-effective in providing data storage for clients.""The most valuable feature of Dell PowerVault is its ability to provide small to medium-range storage. It doesn't have any specific standout features, but it's great for applications, such as surveillance where a large number of videos need to be recorded and performance isn't a priority.""The Dell warranty is the most valuable feature.""The most valuable features are that it's easy to set up PowerVault. I also like the provisioning of storage.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"It is a very scalable solution.""I like the tool’s deduplication feature. We get a ratio of 9:1 for deduplication. The product is also Linux based. Last year, our organization faced some virus attacks. However, the backup was safe because of the product being a Linux version. HPE StoreOnce is a secure product.""The scalability is very good.""The most valuable feature of HPE StoreOnce is the virtual drive.""The most valuable features are the deduplication and compression capabilities.""I think StoreOnce's deduplication technology is crucial for cost efficiency and faster recovery, especially for backup and data protection purposes.""If you have a large enough storage capacity then you can take an ample amount of data.""It's easy to backup data, manage.

Cons
"The product could support an NVMe hard disk.""Sometimes integrating into a cluster can be difficult as you have to do it manually.""PowerVault doesn't integrate with Active Directory. Other storage solutions offer SAN and NAS unified storage in a single appliance, but PowerVault is only SAN.""There have been situations when our customers requested professional support and the price of that feature is quite high.""In the next release, I would like the deduplication and compression included, as well as the flash technology. It doesn't currently use it.""We need higher performance and more reliable storage.""In most instances, clients are using Dell PowerVault with tape drives, but we want to transition them away from tape drives due to the risk of data loss.""If the solution came with a synchronous application, it would be particularly advantageous for small businesses operating across multiple sites."

More Dell PowerVault Cons →

"HPE StoreOnce could improve the capacity support.""The solution should continue to refine its integration capabilities. I also see they are starting to use cloud integration as well, which is good, but they should do more to integrate with it.""While StoreOnce has many features, it needs to focus on integrating with third-party backup software solutions.""I would like to see better integration with Veeam software.""The solution could always be less expensive.""The solution's pricing could be improved.""The product could be improved with better support for data protection.""This product would be improved with the inclusion of more features to security or WORM."

  • "The price puts me off. It's definitely on the high side."

We specifically took 10 TB for very critical offsite backups. We can also increase it in blocks if needed."
