We performed a comparison between DD Boost, HPE StoreOnce, and IBM ProtectTIER based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, NetApp and others in Deduplication Software."The initial setup is very straightforward."
"Overall, scalability is great."
"It cuts down network traffic, and only the relevant parts move around because it is deduced and encrypted."
"We can retain the data for a pretty long time."
"The solution is quite scalable. An organization shouldn't have any problem expanding if they use this solution."
"The most valuable feature is the support for plug-ins."
"Data Domain is valuable, especially to restore data. For normal data, the restore from Data Domain is very efficient and fast."
"This product's unique protocol make it superior to competing products and alternate solutions."
"The initial setup process is simple."
"Deduplication is the most valuable feature."
"HPE StoreOnce works well, it is stable."
"Quick recovery."
"I think StoreOnce's deduplication technology is crucial for cost efficiency and faster recovery, especially for backup and data protection purposes."
"The product's most valuable feature is stability."
"From a centralized system, I can manage the interface, the backup policies, and the status of the database."
"It is very easy to implement."
"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 solution is highly stable."
"The cataloging is the best feature. It takes millions of frames for the backup. It's incremental, so it takes less time to complete."
"The command-line interface is good."
"Overall IBM ProtectTIER is a great solution. It is easy to use."
"The most valuable features are the Self-Service, and the ability to search the data."
"There are some limitations where you cannot use it as a shared server or as a file server, it is limited for the only backup."
"The solution needs to be more user-friendly for the end-users."
"There are limitations when using the VTL protocol in extreme cases."
"This product is expensive compared to other storage so the price can be improved."
"It should be expanded to include other databases and software. It should also be made easier to restore."
"The multi-tier functionality can be improved, but it is quite good. They could improve replication and perhaps support additional sharing network protocols. I would also like to see better implementation of NFS Version 3, but it is already implemented and quite usable as it is."
"DD Boost is a bit expensive."
"Integration could be better."
"The product could be improved with better support for data protection."
"The solution's pricing could be improved."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce should be more user-friendly. Additionally, the configuration and troubleshooting could be better."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The solution would be improved if it could also be used as a data store for VMware."
"I would like to see better integration with Veeam software."
"The repository should have an extension to connect to the cloud and deposit the backups."
"I would like to see an emphasis placed on making data deduplication and compression more powerful."
"IBM ProtectTIER could improve by being more user-friendly."
"The backup for a large amount of data is slow."
"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."
"Setting up the system to work with legacy equipment is a bit complex at times."
"The configuration wizards are still complex and hard to navigate. These should be easier to manage."
