Find out in this report how the two Disk Based Backup Systems solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Both the pricing and the performance are excellent."
"The most valuable features of ExaGrid EX are the Veeam features and Landing Zone."
"The hardware is strong and all the equipment has a good infrastructure. Personally, I think it's the best storage product in HPE for small to medium-sized businesses."
"The most valuable features for us are the ease of use, the reliability, and the exceptional deduplication that we get across that data that we store on those devices."
"This is a user-friendly solution."
"The valuable feature is the ability to work with the Veeam software to reduce the backup windows."
"The important feature is compression and duplication. It has a good compression ratio and is very stable."
"I like the tool’s deduplication feature. We get a ratio of 9:1 for deduplication. The product is also Linux based. Last year, our organization faced some virus attacks. However, the backup was safe because of the product being a Linux version. HPE StoreOnce is a secure product."
"Catalyst backup is used to back up Oracle databases, and provides very good throughput during backups."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"The solution’s web access should be improved."
"I would like to see free disk space."
"This product would be improved with the inclusion of more features to security or WORM."
"The repository should have an extension to connect to the cloud and deposit the backups."
"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."
"HPE StoreOnce should come with a detailed installation guide."
"The solution should continue to refine its integration capabilities. I also see they are starting to use cloud integration as well, which is good, but they should do more to integrate with it."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"The GUI and its user-friendliness have some room for improvement."
"While StoreOnce has many features, it needs to focus on integrating with third-party backup software solutions."
