"The most important feature is that it's easy to use."
"The initial setup is quite straightforward."
"It is almost perfect for Microsoft products. It is not a very powerful tool, but it is okay for small sites and small businesses with Microsoft products. It is easy to use for backup and restore. It is good for backing up Microsoft servers such as Exchange and SharePoint servers."
"This solution helps us to manage all of the operations across servers and different workstations."
"HPE StoreOnce Backup to Disk (BTD) is not a good backup solution for NAS devices. It does not have a dual controller, so if one controller fails, the entire system will go down."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The product's price could be better."
"The setup phase is not so simple that an end user can plug and play to make it operational."

"Microsoft DPM could improve if it was available in a public or private cloud."
"The problem lies with the 2019 version, it's the file system they’re using."
"We can't take a snapshot and take it outside, which is a problem."
"Management reporting could be improved."
"There is a very poor online user community in terms of people blogging about their experiences with DPM."
"It needs portability for other vendors. It is good for backing up Microsoft servers, but it doesn't support third-party solutions such as Oracle Database. It depends on Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy, especially for Hyper-V, which has a lot of problems. They should enhance the Volume Shadow Copy functionality. Its reporting should also be better. Reporting is too weak in DPM."
"The user friendliness could be improved."
