We performed a comparison between HPE StoreOnce and NetApp Cloud Backup based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Deduplication Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I think the most valuable feature is the catalyst technology, which is in the StoreOnce appliance."
"The valuable feature is the ability to work with the Veeam software to reduce the backup windows."
"Deduplication is the most valuable feature."
"Catalyst backup is used to back up Oracle databases, and provides very good throughput during backups."
"HPE StoreOnce is particularly useful in situations where organizations require a backup solution to store their data. Its deduplication feature is quite impressive, providing a deduplication ratio of around 25 to 26."
"HPE StoreOnce is an easy-to-use tool."
"HPE StoreOnce has high performance."
"The solution saves a lot of storage capacity."
"Scalability is very good."
"One feature that works well for us is that the Cloud Manager is a completely agentless solution. There's a similar dashboard on both the versions for on-premises and the cloud, and with reference to the Cloud Manager, it's a little faster because there's nothing to be installed as such. Being agentless, it doesn't require any agent to be deployed on the targets where the backups are triggered."
"NetApp Cloud Backup performance is good and they have beneficial technology."
"HPE should have more options so customers can choose from a wide range of products with small to big capacities."
"Some high-level cybersecurity features could be achieved with some entities, and their integration could be built into the store."
"The solution could always be less expensive."
"The repository should have an extension to connect to the cloud and deposit the backups."
"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."
"We archive our backups on tape, so I feel like if we could somehow plug our tape drive directly into the StoreOnce device and set it up to where it would archive based on, if some kind of rules based engine or what have you, that would really be an improvement for us."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"I would like to see better integration with Veeam software."
"NetApp Cloud Backup could improve by being easier to use. Veeam solution is easier to use."
"One area that can be improved is around how we define the different KPIs. In particular, the business KPIs. I have my own in-house application for the business KPIs, so for example, with our policies around retention, which is a period of seven years, I have to read these parameters from other applications and I need them to integrate well."
"Integration and reporting could be improved."
