"Quick recovery."
"The speed and deduplication ratio are two of the most valuable features of the solution."
"The deduplication feature in this product is amazing."
"Has very good deduplication and encryption features."
"I could back up all the stuff we had, even the VMs we have for Hyper V."
"Microsoft DPM is scalable."
"I like the core backup feature. I also like the file server backup feature. I find Microsoft DPM interesting because it has fantastic integration with Microsoft products. For example, in Exchange and SharePoint, DPM is excellent when it comes to backing up data. It also does a decent job with open-source products."
"The most valuable feature is that DPM has an index so individual files can be searched."
"The user interface is very good. The reporting and monitoring features are also good."
"This solution helps us to manage all of the operations across servers and different workstations."
"Its capability to give a BMR for all the workstations that I want to connect to."
"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."
"The solution's pricing could be improved."
"The web interface, ease of use, and GUI all need to be improved."
"The GUI and its user-friendliness have some room for improvement."
"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."
"Its customer service could be faster."
"The solution must provide backup options for smaller capacities."
"They could provide more options for storage capacity."
"HPE StoreOnce needs to provide a SaaS solution by offering high-density disks."
"We can't take a snapshot and take it outside, which is a problem."
"There is a very poor online user community in terms of people blogging about their experiences with DPM."
"You have only a few settings and if you change them for some special configurations, it's very difficult."
"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."
"To evaluate the solution's abilities and its performance under demanding conditions, it is recommended to carry out a stress test."
"Compatibility and integration with other products needs improvement."
"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."
