OpenText Data Protector Implementation Team
My company runs a managed service desk, and we have been managing the tool on behalf of one of our clients for the past three years. My team manages the product's setup phase.
The deployment process typically takes around one or two hours.
To deploy the solution, you initiate the process by right-clicking in the admin interface. The deployment can be done manually or set up for automatic deployment. Information confirmation is a key step, and the solution is then automatically deployed.
View full review »The solution was implemented by a partner of Micro Focus and it took about one to two days to setup for our mid-size company.

View full review »Vendor interaction for basic to moderately complex deployments is usually not needed. For complex multi-site, multi-vendor, deployments, HPE provides a wealth of assistance to attack and resolve even the most convoluted enterprise environments.
For the most extreme, complex environments (FIPS, Tempest, DoD, etc.), HPE consulting provides excellent support from the initial design to complete overhaul/upgrade.
View full review »We used a reseller that helped with the deployment. They were fantastic. I liked them a lot.
View full review »A vendor team came and performed the implementation. I recommend that you get a professional services team come and do it for you.
View full review »We had the option of using professional services to do the installation, however, we chose to do it ourselves. Just think about an overall design, what your current and future needs are, and implement for the future.
View full review »We implemented it through an in-house team of only one member. They were very knowledgeable, with over 20+ years of system administrator experience and knowledge.

We used a partner for the deployment. We had a good experience with them.
View full review »Back in 2000 the software was implemented by HP. I wasn’t present for the implementation, but after that, some upgrades and migrations has happened. Both HP Greece and an in-house software engineer have performed the projects. I have to say that the level of their expertise is more than adequate.

The product was part of the backup solution that shipped with our HP printer, so we did not record a vendor implementation.

Sr. Manager - IT Systems at a transportation company with 501-1,000 employees
I handled the implementation by myself. I did not need the help of any integrators or consultants at the time.
View full review »The implementation team gets 4/5. Implementation was through HPE consultancy.
Over the course of the deployment I had two different consultants. The first consultant got a promotion within HPE and the second consultant was from Italy. I now have a 3rd local Eire based HPE consultant that will be assisting and guiding me on the legacy IDB migration. I look forward to working with him, as his knowledge of the DP is outstanding.

A vendor team of HP.
I would rate them a 3/5, for the following reasons:
- It took a long time to resolve some of the implementation issues.
- They didn’t recommend the best practices for managing backups in a VMware environment
I implement Data Protector for most of my customers myself.
