We performed a comparison between Arcserve UDP and HPE StoreOnce based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The ROI is very good because of the speed of the backup."
"The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is the initiative UI and the logs are clear and detailed that are generated when there has been an issue or failure on the user's system. We only have to log onto the client's system to retrieve the information. It is possible to precisely identify the problem's location. The system categorizes and logs every step in a structured manner, selectively displaying only the essential logs. However, to view a comprehensive log, one must access the line machine log and examine the actual client for detailed logging."
"The most valuable features are that it is able to restore quickly and that it is able to virtually restore on Hyper-V."
"The backup is the most valuable feature. It also makes storage very easy."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It's simple to set up."
"The data protection functionality is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"It is very stable."
"It results in more efficient storage utilization, cutting capital expenditure in half."
"We also really benefit from the GUI capabilities."
"Technical support is quite good."
"The most valuable features for us are the ease of use, the reliability, and the exceptional deduplication that we get across that data that we store on those devices."
"The most valuable feature of HPE StoreOnce is the virtual drive."
"Currently, VTLs can only be created on individual service sets and cannot be used to share the resources of other nodes."
"The implementation is straightforward."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"The support could be more knowledgeable and faster."
"The solution's reporting could be improved and should provide customized reports."
"Backups are very slow and time consuming."
"I don't know whether the tool has VMware integrations. It would be good to cover this area if it doesn't have those."
"In the most recent version of premium plus the replication has been removed, and it should re-added to the solution."
"The problem is just reliability. If the promises in the marketing material were realized in real life, it would be the perfect solution, but it's just the reliability issues."
"Its interface can be improved. I find it unintuitive."
"The only problem with the solution is that when I change the drive capacity, it has to do a full backup. It's a problem when I have five servers to backup. When I only want to change the size of the drive, I have to do a full backup that can take one week."
"The product's price could be better."
"Agnostic backups."
"HPE StoreOnce needs to be made cheaper than products from Dell and Veeam."
"The appliance doesn't have the global deduplication, it has StoreOnce deduplication. It does not deduplicate across the appliance, it will deduplicate in one particular store. With the global deduplication, I could store more data."
"When it comes to upgrading, it always goes block-wise. One block is 48 TB raw capacity. It would be good if they can include a smaller capacity for SMB customers. Currently, it is not possible to increase in a smaller capacity. You have to buy the exact same unit. It would be great if they can provide a smaller next block. There are around 20 hard disks, and it would be really helpful if we can add 10 hard disks initially and 10 hard disks later."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"HPE StoreOnce should come with a detailed installation guide."
"The repository should have an extension to connect to the cloud and deposit the backups."
