Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Commvault integrates well with all types of operating systems and supports heterogeneous environments."
"I like the product because of its simplicity and the fact that it provides one single interface for managing everything, including storage, data, and policies."
"It is much more scalable and flexible than everything else in the market."
"The product has the best features for scaling up and administering all the solutions from a single platform."
"It is a stable solution."
"Commvault is both very stable and scalable."
"This is a very stable product."
"The return points are very valuable."
"The solution can be used for all Office 365 applications."
"The flexibility. Being able to virtualize it, port it wherever I like, test my backups, test my DR capabilities whenever I like without impacting anybody."
"Its initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable feature is the portability of large archived data. You're able to put things on large on-prem, low-cost storage and then augment that with even lower cost storage in the cloud."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is easy to use and integrate with whichever operating systems you use, providing you with a complete view, especially when you plan to migrate to some other operating system."
"The deduplication engine. Right now, we're at about 10.5 to 11 times deduplication of our backup data."
"The solution is very easy to use and it offers great support."
"It's so easy to work with."
"They don't market their products well. They don't do a lot of marketing to enable them to move forward."
"This is not a very high standard product."
"There is room for improvement in the data center application running on the cloud for the platform."
"Commvault should keep and continue to develop the Java GUI."
"The back of virtual machines needs improvement. I know they're working on it. They're always doing new things but I think they still have a little bit more to do."
"Mostly controls, visibility, cost allocation."
"It takes a lot of steps to implement backups. We have to do a lot of planning to make the solution work properly. It takes some time to create every policy. It's an easy task, but there are many steps. It's not as easy as using Veeam."
"There could be improvements to the backup failures."
"What could be helpful is different user base authentication so then maybe we could allow different customers to point to a single appliance and they only see the backups and things that they have."
"It's a good product, but it's becoming outdated and moving to their other primary architecture."
"The initial setup phase of the tool was difficult."
"More capacity with the basic model of the AltaVault would probably help out."
"There are some bits it could do better. With tighter integration maybe with Veeam, or something like that, it'd be really good."
"I would like to see more web support."
"It would be nice if the solution was more complete. Many customers are looking for a single solution or silo that they can manage everything from. It would be nice, instead of having different products, if everything a client needed was in one solution."
"I really want to partner it with the SnapCenter. We haven't implemented that yet. We're upgrading all of our stuff to the ONTAP 9, which you had to have."
