Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The standard backup and restore feature is most used."
"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."
"I like the tool's speed."
"Easy restoration and the solution works quickly."
"The most valuable feature is the duplication."
"The data protection functionality is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The recovery part of the product is very good."
"The product provides instant and virtual standbys."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The initial setup process is simple."
"The scalability is very good."
"From a centralized system, I can manage the interface, the backup policies, and the status of the database."
"I think StoreOnce's deduplication technology is crucial for cost efficiency and faster recovery, especially for backup and data protection purposes."
"It is very easy to implement."
"HPE StoreOnce is an easy-to-use tool."
"If you have a large enough storage capacity then you can take an ample amount of data."
"Backups are very slow and time consuming."
"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."
"StorageCraft ShadowProtect can improve by making one console that can control backups of all desktops and servers in one place. Additionally, the recovery process of the backups is very slow and could improve. It's very slow when we went to recover a complete disc but to recover one file is very fast."
"Based on my experience, whenever we need support, there are difficulties with communication when trying to resolve the issue."
"The time to backup servers that sit in DMZ must be improved."
"The solution can use a lot of bandwidth when the scheduling is not done, it should auto-schedule itself. For example, if there are 50 users connected in the network at 12 o'clock and the backup is not scheduled. At this time the network offices are going to have performance issues when it is doing a backup. Having a feature to auto-schedule a time when the network is not being used often would be beneficial."
"The solution could improve by being more user-friendly. It can be difficult to assign destinations and choose which files and folders we need to back up. There are some aspects that are unclear."
"I had an issue with Arcserve UDP during the failover and the secondary machine didn't get back online, even though it ran automatically. I faced the issue during a crisis situation. However, I haven't faced such a problem again."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce should be more user-friendly. Additionally, the configuration and troubleshooting could be better."
"The solution could always be less expensive."
"The GUI and its user-friendliness have some room for improvement."
"HPE StoreOnce needs to be made cheaper than products from Dell and Veeam."
"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."
"Agnostic backups."
"In terms of areas for improvement, I believe HPE StoreOnce could learn from competitors like Dell's Data Domain and ExtraHop in refining its architecture."
"They could provide more options for storage capacity."
