The tool is overall stable. I would rate its stability a nine out of ten.

HPE's performance is lower than that of ExaGrid and Data Domain.

It is a stable solution.

I would rate the stability of HPE StoreOnce as a 7 out of 10.

It is a stable solution,

It is an absolutely stable solution. We haven't had any issues. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. it's reliable. 

The tool is stable.

HPE StoreOnce is a stable solution.

It is a very reliable solution.

The tool’s stability has been great. I rate the stability a nine or ten out of ten.

The solution is very stable. 

I rate the product's stability a ten out of ten.

It is a stable product. 

HPE StoreOnce works well, it is stable.

I have no data on it as it's too soon in our use.

We’ve experienced data lost. We’ve had three stores go off-line (which were recoverable) and had a disk become corrupt at the service set/couplet level. The corrupt service set had to be formatted and we lost 40TB of data. Luckily most of it was replicated from another data center.

It is a stable solution that is solid and reliable.

We have had some issues. We are working with HPE to solve all the issues. For example, when we try to restore, other solutions have automatic restore.
Currently, we need to do it manually and it takes a very long time. This is a critical issue, but we are working with HPE on it.

Also, the hardware is from HPE and the software is from another company that is part of HPE and this causes some problems. So, if we have any issue with the hardware, it’s solved quickly. But, if we have any issue with the software, for example, with the console, we need to reschedule the jobs or there is a delay in a job, we need to go back to that company through HPE. This takes time.

I don’t like to talk about these things but so far stability on the system has been perfect, no issues. So I have two 4300’s and that came with Catalyst which was new to that platform. So when we had the systems put in the technician that came out actually hadn’t seem them before. So that was maybe the only hiccup but they did a great job installing them. I didn’t have to do anything with it and it’s been running ever since.

I rate the platform's stability a nine out of ten.

The solution's stability is impressive; I rate it as a ten. We came across disk failure issues only once.

Not with this current model 4430, but with a previous model we did have stability issues and these have been resolve with the 4430 model.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

We've had failed disks but we've not lost any data and HPE's support has been very good. We did have some difficulty with the phone home functionality originally. Oddly enough, in one case, a firmware update fixed that for one of the devices. Overall, we found them to be very reliable.

So far, it looks quite stable.

We have not encountered any issues with it and I would say that it is quite stable. I would rate the stability a nine out of ten.

We're outsourced with a partner who recalls a larger amount of problems with the product.

It is stable. We hardly ever had an issues with it.

Stability’s good. I have not encountered any stability issues.

It's very stable.

HPE StoreOnce is stable.

We did experience an issue for many months where Post-Backup Object Copy jobs would remain stuck “In Progress” and never report any data movements even though the two StoreOnce devices successfully replicated data. The jobs had to be aborted and manually re-run. We experienced approximately five of these a week out of over 200 jobs that would run. This was eventually fixed in Data Protector 9.03, and a post-hotfix.

I rate the tool's stability a ten out of ten.

Some models are shipped with one power supply by default, even when redundant PSUs are supported in pairs; be aware of that.

HPE StoreOnce has been stable.

The stability is not very good. It is not software-driven, but hardware-driven.

I think that we've had it for two years and it doesn't have any issue at this moment.

Excellent.

Rarely have issues with stability.

This is a stable solution.

We have not had any stability problems.

The product is great. I've been a 3PAR and StoreOnce customer for many years now and I am now a very strong backing of HPE's storage and backup infrastructures. It's been a really good experience for the past couple of years.

With the older firmware we did have problems with the B6200 crashing with kernel problems, though this has now been addressed with the firmware updates.

No issues during initial config, can't say there were any stability issues.

I was wondering at the time if we would have to deal with some hardware failure somewhere every other week and it turns out it's a solid solution, we encountered very few problem regarding hardware.

We have a 7/1 deduplication rate, which in our environment is pretty descent.

It is pretty stable; excellent, in fact. I had one very minimal hard-drive failure.

The solution is very stable.

The solution is very stable. After nine years, I have yet to have a problem.

I did not encounter any stability issues.

We have implemented this solution for a number of customers, and they are happy with the stability.

The stability's been great. We haven't had any issues with it. We had a few growing pains in the beginning, but a lot of it was just getting used to the platform. We haven't had any data loss with it. It stayed up. Even through all the upgrades, we haven't had issues.

StoreOnce has been 100% stable in the eighteen months that we've been using it. We actually purchased an additional unit for a third location after the initial purchase of two units on the basis of the performance and reliability.

We've never had an issue with stability.

The stability has been rock solid. We have not had issues. There have been other platforms we've seen problems with. Other than sheer capacity in terms of size, the throughput has been adequate, so we haven't had really any issues to speak of. It's a scalable solution that gives us a lot of versatility. We're able to put these devices in remote locations if we need them, to help offload the tape infrastructure, and really meet the requirements of the site, whether it be the retention or the off-siting capability. Then, as those sites grow, we can expand them. It does give us a lot of versatility. The upgrade process, my understanding is, I haven't been directly involved, but it has been hitless. There really has not been downtime to do these.

Since the staged back-up happens in the background there is no impact on the network.

It's a stable solution. 

This solution is stable to use. 

We have four people using this solution, three of them are system administrators and one is a solution architect.

Each license has its capacity. 

We are using it minimally, and we don't plan to increase our usage.

So far, we've been really impressed with it. We've had no downtime. We're coming off a D2D4312 system, and we had greater than 99.9 percent uptime on that device. We're very confident in the StoreOnce device, the uptime stability, everything is going to be just as good. We're a long-term HP customer, and we will probably remain so because it just works.

So far, we've had no issues.

The virtual appliance, it's virtualized so no problems at all with stability.

My customers don't have any issues, important issues, with StoreOnce.

The stability improved as they released updates and patches for the software.

It's stable enough for our backup product. There's a couple of issues with the CIFS we were using with Veeam, but we're trying to use the catalyst stores now that Veeam 9 came out, and it seems to be working better so far, but we just started doing that like a month ago, so we're still in the testing phase.

From a technical point of view, it's a stable solution.

It demonstrates high stability and it can integrative with Veeam and other HPE products such as 3PAR.

It's been up and running now for four months and we haven't had any issues.

No issues encountered.

It's very stable. We've only had one small problem since the implementation.

We had one problem when data replication got stuck and we had to ask HP for help.

Stability was good but undersized for what we needed. We weren't able to de-duplicate what we needed.

The product is stable. There are no bugs or glitches. it doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable and the performance is good. 

It’s stable – it works.

No issues encountered.

No issues encountered.

So far, no.

The solution is quite stable.

Sometimes unstable.

We had problems with the various firmware versions.

Yes we did, but it was resolved with a software upgrade.

Stability is within our expectations.

Six months after purchasing StoreOnce, the database became corrupt and the unit had to be replaced.

No such issues faced.

No issues encountered.

We had a stability issue once because of development, but it's since been resolved.
