Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ability to switch between different hardware platforms and utilization tools are some of this solution's most valuable features.""Global deduplication is the best feature of this solution.""I like the tool's speed.""The interface is very refined, works fine, and is very intuitive most of the time. Scalability is nice. The multi-tenancy feature is very welcome. The integration with Linux works fine too.""The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is the initiative UI and the logs are clear and detailed that are generated when there has been an issue or failure on the user's system. We only have to log onto the client's system to retrieve the information. It is possible to precisely identify the problem's location. The system categorizes and logs every step in a structured manner, selectively displaying only the essential logs. However, to view a comprehensive log, one must access the line machine log and examine the actual client for detailed logging.""The backup is the most valuable feature. It also makes storage very easy.""There are many backup options available in this solution. For example, you are able to do backups of servers, email, OST files, and users. This is a complete backup solution which is very good.""Arcserve UDP has a good configuration and user interface. It makes the job of an administrator easy."

"The valuable feature is the ability to work with the Veeam software to reduce the backup windows.""This is a user-friendly solution.""We also really benefit from the GUI capabilities.""I think the most valuable feature is the catalyst technology, which is in the StoreOnce appliance.""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 deduplication feature in this product is amazing.""Has very good deduplication and encryption features.""Quick recovery."

Cons
"The time to backup servers that sit in DMZ must be improved.""I don't know whether the tool has VMware integrations. It would be good to cover this area if it doesn't have those.""I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve.""It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration.""They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it.""We have to use a Microsoft hypervisor for installation which is expensive.""The only problem with the solution is that when I change the drive capacity, it has to do a full backup. It's a problem when I have five servers to backup. When I only want to change the size of the drive, I have to do a full backup that can take one week.""The initial setup was complex."

More Arcserve UDP Cons →

"Hardware maintenance involves some downtime for backup destination storage which can be a problem for some.""HPE StoreOnce needs to be made cheaper than products from Dell and Veeam.""HPE should have more options so customers can choose from a wide range of products with small to big capacities.""The user interface of HPE StoreOnce is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The product could be improved with better support for data protection.""Some high-level cybersecurity features could be achieved with some entities, and their integration could be built into the store.""We're outsourced with a partner who recalls a larger amount of problems with the stability of the product.""The repository should have an extension to connect to the cloud and deposit the backups."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I do not work with the pricing or licensing issues of the solution for our organization."
  • "We only have the maintenance of three standard UDP licenses. Each license is 50 Euro. There are some additional costs for the storage and software but it has nothing to do with the UDP."
  • "Normally our customers purchase the premium plus license, rather than the standard one, which provides more options."
  • "The price of this product is high and it should be lower."
  • "It is approximately $400 to purchase a virtual service outright."
  • "There is an annual license required for this solution and it is priced well."
  • "Pricing is most likely comparable."
  • "The retail fee is $1300 for a year for one server. Other than that, there is just the cost of your hardware."

  • "The price puts me off. It's definitely on the high side."
  • "To be honest, we were quite happy with the price, but we always want things cheaper than they are. I think for what we got, we felt that the price was quite reasonable comparing it to other products that provide that same level of functionality."
  • "There are costs for additional storage and space."
  • "Price-wise, it comes with a high price tag when compared to other products."
  • "The cost of HPE StoreOnce is very expensive."
  • "We have got a perpetual license, and we have access to all the features. If you are using cloud banks, you can store the internal data in HPE Cloud if needed. You can offload the data to the HPE Cloud. It is a licensed product. We have got around 10 TB of cloud bank storage with a one-time payment. We specifically took 10 TB for very critical offsite backups. We can also increase it in blocks if needed."
  • "The licensing schemes could improve in HPE StoreOnce and the price is high. They should reduce the price."
  • "I think the product is competitive in terms of pricing. Other products like the one from Dell are costlier compared to the tool."
