Unified data protection has simplified hybrid backups and has improved ransomware recovery speed

Commvault Cloud's best feature in terms of protection is that it provides data protection and accomplishes its job effectively. It offers a unified approach to backup across all environments, including on-premises, public cloud, and SaaS applications such as M365 and Salesforce. I also use it for virtual machines and databases. The unified protection approach helps my team manage different environments effectively. Before Commvault Cloud, I used a separate VM backup tool to protect the VMware environment. For database backup, I had to use the native tool or backup scripts. For the cloud part, I had to use the native AWS or Azure cloud tools. After moving to Commvault Cloud, a single policy or a set of backup policies is applied across virtual machines, databases, workloads, and cloud workloads. I can protect my environments, which reduces manual configuration errors. Regarding visibility, it provides one dashboard to manage and centralize monitoring of all workloads. It is very easy to track backup success or failure. I can see the SLA compliance and storage usage without needing to jump between tools to check or have visibility of it. Regarding the recovery experience, the recovery time has been reduced drastically by using Commvault Cloud. It has simplified cloud management and provides easier manageability to manage retention policies, encryption policies, and compliance rules. This helps reduce operational workloads. Commvault Cloud has impacted me very positively. It simplifies and unifies data protection across hybrid workloads. Instead of managing multiple backup tools for virtual machines, databases, and SaaS applications, I now have a single platform with consistent policies and centralized visibility. This has really reduced my operational complexity and improved backup reliability. Regarding the cyber resiliency posture, the immutable backups and ransomware recovery workflow give me greater confidence in recovering quicker from potential risks. Commvault Cloud has positively impacted me in several key areas: unified backup management across environments, reduced operational overhead, improved ransomware resiliency, faster recovery times, better visibility for compliance, and easier management of hybrid or cloud workloads.

User-friendly interface, and reasonably priced but the support needs improvement

While the solution is generally satisfactory, we encountered difficulties when attempting to seek assistance for issues we faced. Getting the necessary help proved to be quite challenging. The after-sales service is not ideal for French-speaking customers like us in Quebec. Unfortunately, there is no local support available for us. We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The deduplication in Commvault is great; we have 90-something percent savings using its deduplication technology."

"This solution gives me the full insight without having to use other products, metrics, or reporting tools."

"Single pane of management policy driven backup."

"It's easy to configure multiple jobs and media agent locations for each server. We do offsite backups for all of our servers, but we also do onsite hourly backups of them. That has benefited us several times when we had an incident and didn't want to roll back a server an entire day."

"Our primary use case is for backing up the .NES file system, and I backup VMware and Windows cloud servers."

"With Commvault, we run a single job as a one-pass job, it will run backup and archive in a single job, no need to run two jobs for backup and archive them differently."

"We can go from one page to another page, from office backups to VM backups, or applications like secret backups. So everything can be configured or restored from a single pin."

"Commvault Backup & Recovery's search utility is its most valuable feature."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"I like the fact that it gives you the possibility to set the data out of the customer on-premises site and to have an off-site copy in your Cloud Data Center."

"While there are some complexities, Veeam tries to keep the product simple and offers a good knowledge base. It's quite structured, so you can easily take one subject and learn about it simply by reading through the documentation."

"In my opinion, the console or dashboard is the most valuable feature of this solution."

"The most valuable quality of Veeam Cloud Connect is its reliability."

"This solution works really well and it is simple to deploy."

"The most valuable feature is that it is very elastic. It's adaptable because it's very flexible and modular."

"The most valuable feature is the snapshot capability."

"Generally speaking about Veeam, as a vendor, from a technical support perspective, I've really enjoyed the fact that they have a really high response rate."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"Support could improve and the initial configuration would be easier with assistance from a professional engineer."

"Adding new users who are non-technical can be a little challenging."

"The solution's breadth and depth of cloud support are good, but could be better. Some cloud features that are common-sense, especially on AWS, are not completely integrated yet in the product. They are a work-in-progress."

"They should move the CommServe outside of Windows machines and the database should be distributed among servers. It's still a single point of failure."

"The local support could be improved."

"There are two ways to use it and I prefer the web-based one over the app. I wish they were a little bit more matched in what they offer because the features aren't as available in the web-based interface as they are in the app."

"Sometimes, for customers, the setup is difficult compared to Veeam, which we sometimes also sell to much smaller customers."

"Some of our customers say that Commvault is a very expensive solution, but Commvault has many features that the competitors don't have."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"There are some issues with the cloud providers for Veeam Cloud Connect that do not support all the features."

"I also think the cost factor is a major issue for Veeam because it's a very expensive soluton especially when the client wants support for VMware."

"I would like to see more advanced training courses made available to cover complicated use cases."

"Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases."

"We encountered some issues with stability at the beginning."

"Some of the features I'd like added to the solution would be coming up in version 12, so the only area for improvement I saw in Veeam Cloud Connect was the need to have more support for object storage."

"The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors. They could work to build something around that concept."

"The biggest thing that Cloud Connect needs is native deduplication."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is paid on an annual basis and the price is reasonable."

"The solution is expensive, but it is worth the money."

"In my experience, compared to solutions like Veritas and Veeam, while they do have their technical pluses and minuses, Commvault can save you on average forty percent initially, and then twenty to twenty-five percent annually."

"We work with Commvault and a partner on our environment needs according to capacity, licensing, pricing, components, modules, etc. Additional costs depend on your backup needs."

"The pricing has improved. It is simplified compared to the way that it was a few years ago. It is fairly straightforward and pretty easy to articulate to customers, which is handy."

"Based on the customer's needs, their pricing and model is very confusing sometimes. You need to check with their sales to make sure you are getting the right pricing on whatever you are using. I know that they have simplified a lot regarding the licensing model nowadays, but it is good to always double check and make sure it has everything that you really need."

"Commvault's pricing model and pricing structure were initially confusing, but once we worked more closely with the company, we were able to transition to a subscription license that saved us a lot of money."

"I would rate the price of Commvault Cloud seven out of ten with ten being the cheapest."

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

"It's not the cheapest solution on the market but it's reliable, so we find it cost-effective."

"The price of the solution could be cheaper. There are monthly or yearly subscription options available. The annual subscription tends to be cheaper."

"I think that this is one of the most cost-effective solutions."

"The licensing is MSP-based. It is connected to the portal, and you can deploy it to your end users as well."

"We are looking into how we can extend the license of this product."

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

"The price of the solution is reasonable because of our good standing with the vendor."
