We performed a comparison between HPE StoreOnce and HPE 3PAR StoreServ based on our users’ reviews in four categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: Based on the parameters we compared, HPE 3PAR StoreServ came out ahead of HPE StoreOnce. Even though both products have similar deployment difficulties, price range, and support quality, HPE StoreOnce has fewer valuable features than HPE 3PAR StoreServ.
"One of the best features is the support, which is excellent."
"The most valuable features of Pure FlashArray X NVMe are its superior performance compared to other flash tiers, as well as its ease of use, with an intuitive user interface that is simple to deploy and use."
"The solution is scalable."
"It's helped us because we've changed fundamentally what we talk about. We don't talk about storage and different tiers of storage anymore nor do we talk about servers. We talk now about applications and how applications impact the business and end users."
"It has benefited my organization because it has reduced time to insights."
"What I really like about this program, is that it is easy to use and easy to configurate."
"Pure has signature security technology, which cannot be deleted, even if you are an administrator."
"The high availability of the product is the most valuable feature."
"I am a system integrator, so we sell a lot of 3PAR storage to our customers. Our business has increased compared to previous days."
"Its performance is good. We have a lot of applications that have high I/O, and 3PAR handles those with no problem."
"The product lasts a very long time without having to be replaced. It's had a very long life."
"After being properly configured, it has been a very stable product."
"The product has definitely improved throughput. We are able to more efficiently see patients because all of our medical records and practice management software seems to run faster. Uploading images and charts is a lot faster. Recalling information in the exam rooms is faster. The overall throughput of data, going back and forth, is so we can more efficiently see patients, and it also helps increase our patient flow. We can see patients a lot faster, getting them in and out a lot more quickly."
"It runs. I don't have a problem with it. If it needs an update, I can do it in the middle of the day with nobody being the wiser. It is phenomenal in that respect. As a hospital, I get two hours every quarter to reboot things, so it is imperative that nothing goes down."
"I like the integration with VMware and the provisioning. We also use data compression but not for any of the critical applications."
"I like that 3PAR can remake the disk online. That's one of the best features because when we first started, that was the best. The team provisioning feature was also a good one. Those features are the best for me, provisioning and online optimization, and the tier you can have for storage."
"The solution's licensing policy is more practical and not confusing."
"The solution saves a lot of storage capacity."
"Technical support is quite good."
"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."
"The product's most valuable feature is stability."
"From a centralized system, I can manage the interface, the backup policies, and the status of the database."
"The most valuable feature of HPE StoreOnce is the virtual drive."
"HPE StoreOnce is particularly useful in situations where organizations require a backup solution to store their data. Its deduplication feature is quite impressive, providing a deduplication ratio of around 25 to 26."
"We need better data deduplication."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing of the product."
"They could add more support for file storage and different types of storage."
"I would like to see replication and DR features in the next release of this solution."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the dashboard and management could be simplified."
"The software layer has to improve."
"The tool's pricing is higher than competitors."
"It's more multi-tenant functionality in their Pure1 manage portal that is lacking."
"I would like to see a little bit more integration from a cloud perspective. In this way, I would have some more flexibility to do more with data, how to store it, and where I have it."
"The solution’s customer support could be improved."
"The management interface is not intuitive."
"We had a minor error when we were configuring this system, which initially detracted from its overall stability."
"Would like to see some management functions through a web interface."
"Sometimes control is rebooting and nobody knows why, so there are issues."
"The interface could be improved to match the system."
"We would like to see the ability to not only be integrated with hybrid IT, but on-prem."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"The GUI and its user-friendliness have some room for improvement."
"The solution would be improved if it could also be used as a data store for VMware."
"The product's price could be better."
"This product would be improved with the inclusion of more features to security or WORM."
"It is difficult to solve issues with this solution remotely. I prefer to use the knowledge base platforms. The response time could improve."
"HPE StoreOnce could improve the capacity support."
"The solution's technical support should be faster."
