Cons
"The latency is a bit high.""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 product could be improved with better support for data protection.""The setup phase is not so simple that an end user can plug and play to make it operational.""When it comes to upgrading, it always goes block-wise. One block is 48 TB raw capacity. It would be good if they can include a smaller capacity for SMB customers. Currently, it is not possible to increase in a smaller capacity. You have to buy the exact same unit. It would be great if they can provide a smaller next block. There are around 20 hard disks, and it would be really helpful if we can add 10 hard disks initially and 10 hard disks later.""It is difficult to solve issues with this solution remotely. I prefer to use the knowledge base platforms. The response time could improve.""Hardware maintenance involves some downtime for backup destination storage which can be a problem for some."

More HPE StoreOnce Cons →

"The response from the support team has not always been quick, so sometimes there is a risk.""The tool's pricing is expensive and could be lower.""The product should provide more AI and ML features.""The challenge arose due to a space issue. The issue was related to disk breaks, especially when power cuts occurred. One of the disks would break, leading to a loss of functionality.""The product must improve its recovery features.""Veritas NetBackup Appliance could improve by having a site recovery feature.""The monitoring could be a bit better.""Veritas NetBackup Appliance can improve by having a more direct connection to the cloud. It should have the technology to be able to directly communicate with the cloud."
