Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, NetApp and others in Deduplication Software."The initial setup is simple."
"Deduplication is the most valuable feature."
"The valuable feature is the ability to work with the Veeam software to reduce the backup windows."
"The deduplication feature in this product is amazing."
"This is a user-friendly solution."
"The product's most valuable feature is stability."
"It's easy to backup data, manage. A"
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"The solution is quite stable."
"Veeam Backup Replication's most valuable features are the ease of use, good integration with others solutions, such as Oracle ERP, and by using the UI you can create and achieve operations you want to do."
"We get a lot of features with Veeam and we are happy to use this solution. After shutdown, the servers here automatically turn off and Veeam is keeping up all this. It's tension free work."
"It is a rock-solid backup solution. That's all, and that's what we were asking for."
"Veeam is highly scalable. In one scenario, we started with 2,000 users and scaled up to 24,000."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is definitely very useful and simple to learn, and the restoring processes are very straightforward, making it a very solid product."
"The granular restoration that it provides for a business application is most valuable. For example, for Exchange, we can restore a single mailbox or email. We can also do SQL Server restoration and bare-metal recovery for operating systems."
"The backups we have been receiving from Veeam Backup Replication on-premise have been good."
"The GUI and its user-friendliness have some room for improvement."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"HPE StoreOnce needs to provide a SaaS solution by offering high-density disks."
"The solution must provide backup options for smaller capacities."
"This product would be improved with the inclusion of more features to security or WORM."
"The solution would be improved if it could also be used as a data store for VMware."
"It is difficult to solve issues with this solution remotely. I prefer to use the knowledge base platforms. The response time could improve."
"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 can improve the features and Veeam Enterprise Manager. The interface and features are kind of limited. It would be good if they can provide more features and a better interface. For example, if I want to provide certain users with the privilege to back up and restore and do day-to-day tasks, I cannot do it in the current version. It is like you either give everything to everyone or no user can have access to anything. In version 9, a lot of features were missing, and it wasn't clear. Version 10 is easier from the communication perspective, and the disk backup option is very clear."
"They need full cloud integration such that an on-premises backup can be offloaded to the cloud for storage."
"Unfortunately, the software only runs on Windows."
"The implementation was straightforward. However, we used an integrator, the process could be easier for us to do it ourselves."
"Its import and export processes for information and policies could be better."
"The SME that helped us with the implementation would probably have more insight because he used it way more than we have. We just use it for making sure that our backups are done daily, and the replications are being performed between sites. We haven't had any issues at all with it other than the fact that there is a slight process to acquire additional licenses if we want to expand our number of hosts. That's because it is based on the number of cores and threads that are used."
"I would like them to move back to host licensing."
"Could offer a better conclusion of the backups."
