Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, NetApp and others in Deduplication Software."The product’s data retention is very good."
"I think StoreOnce's deduplication technology is crucial for cost efficiency and faster recovery, especially for backup and data protection purposes."
"HPE StoreOnce works well, it is stable."
"The solution's licensing policy is more practical and not confusing."
"The scalability is very good."
"We also really benefit from the GUI capabilities."
"The solution is stable."
"The product's most valuable feature is stability."
"For virtualization it's perfect."
"Good compression when storing data."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is a great alternative to what is out there. Some of the backups just allow an agent backup to the cloud. You can back up a thousand different ways, but this is a great way to keep a customer and a company in compliance in that they've got their data secure onsite and offsite. The data being transferred to the NAS at the customer's location and also the data being sent to the cloud is encrypted in transit and it's also encrypted at rest so that nobody is going to be able to hack into that. No one will have the keys to do that."
"Sandbox feature is like a power tool for troubleshooting."
"The restore capabilities are the most valuable features."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Backup Replication are ease of use, dashboards, and reporting."
"The solution is quite stable."
"Veeam Backup Replication has good performance and can do location-to-location backups. Additionally, it is user-friendly and easy to manage."
"It is difficult to solve issues with this solution remotely. I prefer to use the knowledge base platforms. The response time could improve."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"HPE StoreOnce needs to provide a SaaS solution by offering high-density disks."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce should be more user-friendly. Additionally, the configuration and troubleshooting could be better."
"The solution would be improved if it could also be used as a data store for VMware."
"The solution must provide backup options for smaller capacities."
"improvement? HPE StoreOnce has a limitation with respect to controllers. Other tools offer more than one controller. I feel that the high availability of the view controller should be redundant. The tool’s control and UI part should be improved and made more advanced. The feature that helps with the manual movement of tapes should also be improved."
"Veeam Backup & Replication could improve by making it more user-friendly."
"Scalability, as well as licensing costs, need to be improved."
"There is always some room for improvement, especially with some of the different technologies such as DB2. Commvault has a DB2 agent, but Veeam still doesn't have it. We have to use the universal one for it."
"Additional executive summary reports for the entire infrastructure would be a nice to have."
"Some support replies for a broken backup task have been "rebuild the job from scratch" and this is a bad thing to do if you have many VMs and repositories."
"Veeam currently lacks features for backing up to network-attached storage. Veeam Backup & Replication agents do not support S3 storage. Only Veeam Backup & Replication server supports S3 storage."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The implementation of the features can be improved. Currently, there is no segregation of duty. Normally, any backup software or client service software is implemented in a way where one person is responsible for the implementation of the server, and one is responsible for the client, but Veeam Backup & Replication is not implemented in that way. Therefore, restores don't work like that. The backup guys have to do the restores, which is not a good thing. Its pricing should also be improved. It is quite expensive."
