Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Deduplication is the most valuable feature."
"It results in more efficient storage utilization, cutting capital expenditure in half."
"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."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"The deduplication feature in this product is amazing."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its UI. The product's UI makes it easy for users to configure the tool."
"Technical support is quite good."
"The most valuable feature of HPE StoreOnce is the virtual drive."
"I am impressed with the tool's technical alliance with Veeam and Veritas."
"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."
 

Cons

"We do not foresee the need to have an artificial intelligence app. It is not mature enough."
"We stopped investigating because we were not really happy with the application."
"HPE StoreOnce should come with a detailed installation guide."
"HPE should have more options so customers can choose from a wide range of products with small to big capacities."
"The solution's pricing could be improved."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"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."
"We have lost some market due to the minimum capacity now being 80 terabytes."
"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 licensing schemes could improve in HPE StoreOnce and the price is high. They should reduce the price."
"The solution's cost is above average."
"There are costs for additional storage and space."
"I rate the platform's pricing a seven out of ten."
"HPE StoreOnce is cheaper compared to other solutions in the market."
"The solution is pretty expensive."
"The price puts me off. It's definitely on the high side."
"The product is not expensive. It is available at a good price."
"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."
