Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The most valuable features are that it is able to restore quickly and that it is able to virtually restore on Hyper-V."
"Easy restoration and the solution works quickly."
"The most valuable feature is the duplication."
"The standard backup and restore feature is most used."
"The ability to switch between different hardware platforms and utilization tools are some of this solution's most valuable features."
"Global deduplication is the best feature of this solution."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that I can by just one click, copy and paste anything that I would want. I do not have to restore the whole virtual machine."
"It is very stable."
"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 the solution is that the tool provides good value for somebody who needs an affordable and reliable storage solution."
"The product’s data retention is very good."
"This is a user-friendly solution."
"Deduplication and compression are in a good ratio. It supports the HPE Catalyst protocol, which is much faster than NFS and other protocols. We use CommVault and Veeam, and these two solutions support the Catalyst protocol very well and are integrated at high speed. It is faster than normal access."
"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."
"Has very good deduplication and encryption features."
"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 support could be more knowledgeable and faster."
"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."
"Backups are very slow and time consuming."
"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."
"One of the biggest drawbacks of Arcserve UDP is that it does not have a single console, making it an area that needs to be considered for improvement."
"Based on my experience, whenever we need support, there are difficulties with communication when trying to resolve the issue."
"We have to use a Microsoft hypervisor for installation which is expensive."
"We are looking at scaling up to the cloud and using immutable copies on the cloud. Arcserve UDP 8.0 does have the immutable feature supporting AWS, but I'm looking for multi-cloud support. So, I'm waiting for Arcserve to release that in the next release."
"HPE StoreOnce needs to provide a SaaS solution by offering high-density disks."
"The solution's technical support should be faster."
"The latency is a bit high."
"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."
"I would like to see an emphasis placed on making data deduplication and compression more powerful."
"The platform's price could be lower."
"This product would be improved with the inclusion of more features to security or WORM."
"The appliance doesn't have the global deduplication, it has StoreOnce deduplication. It does not deduplicate across the appliance, it will deduplicate in one particular store. With the global deduplication, I could store more data."
