Helps to consolidate D2D backups and has a good deduplication ratio

I was involved with the HPE team in the implementation of the tool which included steps like zone grade configuration, tape grade configuration, etc. The zoning part during implementation was very cumbersome. The tool’s implementation took around one week maximum to complete. One person from the HPE team helped us with the deployment. The tool’s deployment was a big process. We had to first deploy the hardware. Then we needed to connect it to the server. We had to also install HPE’s Data Protector. There were multiple things to be configured such as the configuration of Data Protector with D2D backup.

A scalable solution with Veeam and Vertias alliance

I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas. The product needs to improve performance while scaling out. It also needs to improve stability. I have been using the product since seven years. I would rate the product's stability a nine out of ten. I would rate the…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its UI. The product's UI makes it easy for users to configure the tool."

"It results in more efficient storage utilization, cutting capital expenditure in half."

"The speed and deduplication ratio are two of the most valuable features of the solution."

"The solution is stable."

"The implementation is straightforward."

"I like the tool’s deduplication feature. We get a ratio of 9:1 for deduplication. The product is also Linux based. Last year, our organization faced some virus attacks. However, the backup was safe because of the product being a Linux version. HPE StoreOnce is a secure product."

"Quick recovery."

"I'm impressed with their support structure, call availability, understanding, flexibility in scheduling remote sessions, and accommodating customer timeframes."

More HPE StoreOnce pros

"While the challenges posed by the difficulties were significant, they prompted the replacement of problematic components, resulting in the resolution of issues. Importantly, there were no substantial ongoing concerns. Regarding the overall performance, it has been consistently excellent."

"I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas."

Cons

"It is difficult to solve issues with this solution remotely. I prefer to use the knowledge base platforms. The response time could improve."

"We would like to see some improvements in the Veeam Backup & Replication integration. It's good, but it has a lot of room to improve. In particular around the inability to easily move data between StoreOnce appliances."

"Agnostic backups."

"The solution's technical support should be faster."

"I don't see any new features that we could want or anything that could be done along those lines. Just that we need a bigger machine, so more speed."

"HPE should have more options so customers can choose from a wide range of products with small to big capacities."

"The solution could always be less expensive."

"The solution would be improved if it could also be used as a data store for VMware."

More HPE StoreOnce cons

"Perhaps the most notable area for enhancement lies in the web interface for management. The current limitations in LDAP editing capabilities are not addressed in the UI, and I haven't observed any recent updates. It's possible that the new version of the DXI service incorporates improvements in the GUI, but I cannot confirm. While there is room for improvement in the current GUI, it remains a relatively minor issue. Overall, the system is comprehensive, covering aspects such as reports on latency and networking, leaving little room for additional enhancements in those areas."

"The product needs to improve performance while scaling out. It also needs to improve stability."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the product is reasonable."

"To be honest, we were quite happy with the price, but we always want things cheaper than they are. I think for what we got, we felt that the price was quite reasonable comparing it to other products that provide that same level of functionality."

"The solution's cost is above average."

"There are costs for additional storage and space."

"With the same capacity of Data Domain and ExaGrid, which is 80 terabytes, HPE is the cheapest one."

"The licensing costs is capacity-based and come bundled with support."

"HPE StoreOnce is cheaper compared to other solutions in the market."

"The price puts me off. It's definitely on the high side."

More HPE StoreOnce pricing and cost advice

"I do not oversee this aspect, as pricing is contingent on factors such as volume, technical specifications, and the desired features. Consequently, I lack information on the pricing details and structure."
