"The most valuable features are the ease of use, the graphical interface, and it's high speed."
"Commvault integrates well with all types of operating systems and supports heterogeneous environments."
"Commvault gives us a single platform to manage and recover our data. Since we are a research organization, backup is one of the most critical parts of our IT operations and services. Internally, we run it as a managed service, and there is a single console that makes it easy for management to see the performance."
"Commvault's many features can be explored to get more value from more solutions."
"The most valuable features of Commvault Hyperscale X are the full responsibilities inclined in conversion with high responsibility rates."
"The product alerts the security team about threats."
"The most valuable features for us are the ease of use, the reliability, and the exceptional deduplication that we get across that data that we store on those devices."
"Quick recovery."
"The initial setup process is simple."
"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."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The solution saves a lot of storage capacity."
"I think StoreOnce's deduplication technology is crucial for cost efficiency and faster recovery, especially for backup and data protection purposes."
"The most valuable feature of HPE StoreOnce is the virtual drive."
"The solution is expensive in comparison to similar solutions."
"Mostly controls, visibility, cost allocation."
"One issue we face is the complexity of the console. That could be improved on. It takes users time to get familiar with Commvault. On average, it takes our customers between one and three months to learn it. The console and the way you configure Commvault have very advanced settings. It takes time to understand how it works."
"Persistent binding is a feature that I would like to see in the next release of Commvault."
"The main area for improvement is that we sometimes experience negative effects from their updates. If they had a larger test area for their updates, that would help."
"Commvault could benefit from increased automation to streamline processes and enhance predictability."
"Commvault likes to be ahead of the game when it comes to merging with other platforms, but sometimes it's before they have the solution truly baked in. Office 365 is an example. I feel that my company might be a litmus test for their solution, because we have such a large environment. Some of the promised solutions that we received from Commvault were more like testing solutions. They weren't really validated, meaning they were possibilities. There have been a lot of hot fixes for the solution that we're using right now, more than we expected."
"If I were to ask them to work on something, it would be the fidelity of the alerts that occur. They should tell me if it is a real event or not. It is easy for it to identify that something hit it but give me more information. They can build AI into the engine so that I get better output from an alert to tell me if I should really be interested in that or not."
"Agnostic backups."
"HPE should have more options so customers can choose from a wide range of products with small to big capacities."
"The solution must provide backup options for smaller capacities."
"The product could be improved with better support for data protection."
"The solution's pricing could be improved."
"In terms of areas for improvement, I believe HPE StoreOnce could learn from competitors like Dell's Data Domain and ExtraHop in refining its architecture."
"The GUI and its user-friendliness have some room for improvement."
"The setup phase is not so simple that an end user can plug and play to make it operational."
