"Cohesity DataProtect is a reliable solution for performing backups within a suitable timeframe, and its forever incremental model is particularly effective for the customer's needs. Additionally, the solution handles instant recovery and file-level recovery from a VMware image backup seamlessly."
"The most valuable aspect for me is that I don't have to deal with media in terms of tapes like our existing system does."

"Cohesity is extremely easy to use and intuitive."

"The recovery process is effective, especially when it comes to other types of data, such as VMs, and overall, the performance is commendable."
"Cohesity DataProtect is easy to deploy and operate."
"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."
"It's easy to backup data, manage. A"
"If you have a large enough storage capacity then you can take an ample amount of data."
"The speed and deduplication ratio are two of the most valuable features of the solution."
"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."
"Deduplication is the most valuable feature."
"I think the most valuable feature is the catalyst technology, which is in the StoreOnce appliance."
"At times, you may click the wrong server or click too fast and accidentally restore a cluster of servers. It would be very helpful to have a cancel option under restores."
"I'd like to be able to pause a backup while it's running and have it resume when I tell it to resume."
"Better support for legacy platforms would be nice, but we should be moving off those anyway."
"Many of the reports are basic, at most, and at times we had to open a support ticket to help find or develop a report for our needs."

"I would like to see Microsoft Exchange DAG supported as soon as possible."
"There is limited support for legacy systems, which is something that could be improved."
"In terms of the product itself, there have been a handful of patches that have had to be applied outside of the GUI via the command line. It's very straightforward and easy and in the same redundant fashion, but not quite as simple as one or two clicks. I'm hoping that will decrease going forward."
"The latency is a bit high."
"Hardware maintenance involves some downtime for backup destination storage which can be a problem for some."
"HPE should have more options so customers can choose from a wide range of products with small to big capacities."
"I don't see any new features that we could want or anything that could be done along those lines. Just that we need a bigger machine, so more speed."
"This product would be improved with the inclusion of more features to security or WORM."
