"The implementation is straightforward."
"Currently, VTLs can only be created on individual service sets and cannot be used to share the resources of other nodes."
"The most valuable feature of HPE StoreOnce is the virtual drive."
"I like the tool’s deduplication feature. We get a ratio of 9:1 for deduplication. The product is also Linux based. Last year, our organization faced some virus attacks. However, the backup was safe because of the product being a Linux version. HPE StoreOnce is a secure product."
"We also really benefit from the GUI capabilities."
"Catalyst backup is used to back up Oracle databases, and provides very good throughput during backups."
"The command-line interface is good."
"In terms of stability, I've found it to be very stable. I've walked into the server room when it was at 60 degrees Celcius, and it was still running fine."
"The most valuable features are the Self-Service, and the ability to search the data."
"Overall IBM ProtectTIER is a great solution. It is easy to use."
"The solution is highly stable."

"They could provide more options for storage capacity."
"Hardware maintenance involves some downtime for backup destination storage which can be a problem for some."
"The solution's technical support should be faster."
"The product's price could be better."
"I would like to see an emphasis placed on making data deduplication and compression more powerful."
"The latency is a bit high."
"We would like to see some improvements in the Veeam Backup & Replication integration. It's good, but it has a lot of room to improve. In particular around the inability to easily move data between StoreOnce appliances."
"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."
"IBM ProtectTIER could improve by being more user-friendly."
"I would like the possibility to back up the infrastructure and then replicate it upon on restart, without having to orchestrate the starting of the VM."
"The backup for a large amount of data is slow."
"The configuration wizards are still complex and hard to navigate. These should be easier to manage."
"Setting up the system to work with legacy equipment is a bit complex at times."
