Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, NetApp and others in Deduplication Software."I think StoreOnce's deduplication technology is crucial for cost efficiency and faster recovery, especially for backup and data protection purposes."
"The product's most valuable feature is stability."
"The speed and deduplication ratio are two of the most valuable features of the solution."
"I'm impressed with their support structure, call availability, understanding, flexibility in scheduling remote sessions, and accommodating customer timeframes."
"The product’s data retention is very good."
"The solution is stable."
"From a centralized system, I can manage the interface, the backup policies, and the status of the database."
"Currently, VTLs can only be created on individual service sets and cannot be used to share the resources of other nodes."
"This product is user-friendly. The interface is easy to use."
"The documentation is very good. It's also easy to install Veeam Backup and Replication."
"My customers find the backup and recovery ease of use is the most beneficial feature."
"Before Veeam, we had backup infrastructure sprawl. Veeam was able to reduce our overall backup windows while reducing our dedicated backup infrastructure."
"The features that I have found most valuable are its back up and recovery. It is a simplified backup because you can do both databases - VM and HyperV. It's a faster backup than the conventional methods because it takes up the bare metal."
"Veeam is highly scalable. In one scenario, we started with 2,000 users and scaled up to 24,000."
"The pricing of the solution is fair."
"Its stability and scalability were the main reasons for going for this solution. It is highly scalable, and its stability is also powerful. It has a friendly interface, and its monitoring and performance are the best in the market."
"We archive our backups on tape, so I feel like if we could somehow plug our tape drive directly into the StoreOnce device and set it up to where it would archive based on, if some kind of rules based engine or what have you, that would really be an improvement for us."
"HPE StoreOnce needs to provide a SaaS solution by offering high-density disks."
"Its customer service could be faster."
"Hardware maintenance involves some downtime for backup destination storage which can be a problem for some."
"I don't see any new features that we could want or anything that could be done along those lines. Just that we need a bigger machine, so more speed."
"The setup phase is not so simple that an end user can plug and play to make it operational."
"The GUI and its user-friendliness have some room for improvement."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"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."
"In the past, Veeam had a host-based license, but now it will be part of Microsoft's core license. I don't like this licensing model. Host-based licensing is better for my system. Maybe so other organizations prefer the core-based."
"There are certain solutions, such as Rubrik and Cohesity, that are little by little, taking market share. Veeam needs to be more aggressive to keep their dominance in the space."
"I would like to see better features for exporting to cloud-based repositories."
"In the next release I would like to see a bit more intelligence as far as a solution or troubleshooting - to put it more on the level of resolution and not simply identifying there is a problem."
"I have found that the reporting could improve in its structure."
"The cloud backups from Veeam Backup Replication have not been good. Addiotnaally, the backups of Office 365 and the overall performance can always be improved."
"We have had problems with some jobs. For example, when we have a VM with a large SQL Database, sometimes we cannot adjust the time for transaction logs to back up and overlap time."
