Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, NetApp and others in Deduplication Software."The most valuable feature of the solution is that the tool provides good value for somebody who needs an affordable and reliable storage solution."
"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."
"The scalability is very good."
"HPE StoreOnce has high performance."
"I think the most valuable feature is the catalyst technology, which is in the StoreOnce appliance."
"I'm impressed with their support structure, call availability, understanding, flexibility in scheduling remote sessions, and accommodating customer timeframes."
"HPE StoreOnce is particularly useful in situations where organizations require a backup solution to store their data. Its deduplication feature is quite impressive, providing a deduplication ratio of around 25 to 26."
"The most valuable features I have found to be Instant Recovery, quick restore and rollback, and asynchronous copy. It is a complete solution for our needs."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to restore the VMs into a test environment."
"While I do not recall whether the latest version is 10.0 or 11.0 I do know that it allows one to make a back up repository that is very scalable and simple."
"I consider the solution's technical support to be excellent, perfect."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"The solution's best features are its ease of use and replication."
"The ability to offload backup snapshots to the SAN helps with reducing the backup durations."
"Sandbox feature is like a power tool for troubleshooting."
"In terms of areas for improvement, I believe HPE StoreOnce could learn from competitors like Dell's Data Domain and ExtraHop in refining its architecture."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce should be more user-friendly. Additionally, the configuration and troubleshooting could be better."
"The solution's pricing could be improved."
"Hardware maintenance involves some downtime for backup destination storage which can be a problem for some."
"This product would be improved with the inclusion of more features to security or WORM."
"The setup phase is not so simple that an end user can plug and play to make it operational."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"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."
"They need full cloud integration such that an on-premises backup can be offloaded to the cloud for storage."
"The web interface could be more visual."
"The interface and cluster environments could be improved in the future as presently they are using agent interface instead of user interface. Also, the backup for the Oracle WAC environment can be improved."
"We try to compare Veeam with other solutions because we are the operations. Then we can give the answers for improvement which is the specific additional system features that other solutions provide."
"It needs to support more applications. In terms of supported applications, Oracle SQL and Office 365 are supported, but I am not sure if it supports Linux-based applications. That's why I'm looking for an alternative. I am currently testing Commvault. The advantage of Commvault is that a lot of applications are supported with it. I am not sure if CIFS is currently supported. It would be nice to have this feature in case it is not already supported"
"The initial setup can get complex."
"think backing up from physical servers and ransomware security needs some improvements."
"Scalability, as well as licensing costs, need to be improved."
