Sentiment score
7.5
Veeam Data Platform enhances efficiency and cost-effectiveness by reducing management time, storage needs, and improving scalability and reliability.
If we request the price for StoreOnce as a standalone product, it tends to be higher than when it is included in a larger solution where we can receive better discounts.

Sentiment score
7.4

When we open a case for support during installation or other matters, they are always timely and provide full support.
HPE's support is very good, proactive, and monitored through InfoSight.
Most cases are handled perfectly.
The escalation from first, second to third tier is sometimes very long-lasting, but the resolve rate is quite high.
I would rate their technical support a 10 out of 10.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.4
HPE StoreOnce is scalable for enterprises, though some models require planning due to capacity limits and additional licensing.
Sentiment score
7.5
Veeam Data Platform is highly scalable and adaptable, suitable for diverse enterprises but may have licensing cost implications.
The ability of HPE StoreOnce to scale is strong when more sizing options are available.
The scalability of HPE StoreOnce is very good.
Integration with other vendors is also seamless.
In order to scale Veeam Data Platform, we have to pay a lot more money.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.7
HPE StoreOnce is highly stable with consistent performance, rare issues swiftly resolved, and reliability improving with newer models.
Sentiment score
7.8
Veeam Data Platform is highly reliable with minimal issues, praised for stability, quick issue resolution, and regular performance updates.
For the stability of HPE StoreOnce, based on customer feedback, I rate it highly as one of the most stable products in the backup and archiving line.
There are no issues with stability in Veeam Data Platform.
 

Room For Improvement

Users seek improved deduplication, integration, interface, setup, support, storage, performance, pricing, and cloud features in HPE StoreOnce.
Veeam Data Platform needs better physical server support, cost optimization, and enhanced integration with storage, cloud, and user features.
The benefits of StoreOnce, which we discussed, include its compression capabilities with a ratio of 1 to 10.
It is well-positioned on the radar, with a mature and stable solution.
While the solution does everything expected, it would be beneficial if AI could be integrated for optimization and monitoring.
Compared to IBM, Veeam Data Platform is simpler but brings some challenges with automation in backup and Oracle backup configuration.
Reducing it by 20% would make it more accessible to a broader range of customers.
OpenStack is something Veeam Data Platform doesn't support, and they haven't indicated that they will support it in the future.
 

Setup Cost

HPE StoreOnce setup is costly initially, but offers competitive, feature-rich pricing with capacity-based licensing and bundled support.
Veeam Data Platform is competitively priced, offers straightforward licensing, and is valued for extensive features and ease of management.
The solution is quite expensive, possibly rated around seven and a half on a scale of one to ten.
I don't consider the price expensive given its importance.
Veeam Data Platform is more expensive than OpenStack because we pay for it in US dollars, while we pay for OpenStack in Egyptian pounds.
A reduction of 20% in the current cost would make the solution more attractive to clients.
