Hybrid backup strategy has improved recovery orchestration and now supports flexible DR planning

I think improvements could be made in Commvault Cloud. Lately what I have seen is that there are AI capabilities that different data protection organizations are coming up with, which basically revolves around tiering of not frequently accessible data to glacier kind of storage, plus bringing in a high level of compression and deduplication capabilities. All those features I believe are there in other customers and they are bringing in new use cases from the AI perspective which I have not recently seen in Commvault. I have seen that Dell does have such features. We recently pitched a solution to the customers where we talked about data tiering and the other AI use cases, identifying the data by itself and autonomously taking decisions on how to tier the data between the different storage classes that we have. Those kind of capabilities that we have proposed to the customer as far as the partner solutions are concerned. I would like to see AI capabilities in Commvault Cloud. The rest of the features pretty much align with the other enterprise solutions that we have in the market. It is just the AI capability that is being asked by the customers as well as that I see missing with Commvault.

Great backup that's user-friendly and very reliable

The initial setup is very straightforward. It is easy. There are no great difficulties when setting up the solution. Even the configuration is simple. The deployment itself takes only a couple of days. It only takes one person to install it. You do not need a big team. We had an engineer manage it. The product does not require any maintenance.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There's no impact on the endpoint. It runs in the background and it's something that you install and then forget about."

"The solution's stability is excellent."

"It has significantly reduced the amount of manual work required to manage our backup operations. We're going from an on-prem to a non-on-prem, we're all doing nonsolutions. So we really can't compare it against anything else."

"They have a strong development team and are market leaders in the space."

"This is a very stable product."

"In the VM, we have Live Recovery, Live Mount, and Live Sync."

"We have VMware, Hyper-V, Oracle, and Microsoft SQL. We have a lot of different systems, and all of them are supported under one licensing agreement. That's one of the benefits."

"The most valuable feature is sharing data sets like they're in a private cloud. We call it our "private cloud" because we can share anything that is inside our backup set with our colleagues or with other people, and yet, everything is still in Belgrade, in Serbia. It's not somewhere else on cloud servers. Everything is in our environment."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"Replication without network changes."

"the interface is the most valuable feature and for the client it's security."

"The stability and restore options on the solution are very good."

"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."

"A really good feature is backing up the emails of the company."

"Cloud Connect's best features are its simplicity, flexibility, and constantly-expanding options."

"The most valuable features are the fast replication and recovery of data."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"Improved documentation and user training resources could contribute to a smoother onboarding process and more effective utilization of the platform's capabilities."

"The product is expensive."

"Additional SaaS application support would be good... we have SaaS applications that may not be big enough for Commvault to support yet. Box.com is one we've asked about for years, and it's just not on the radar, as far as I know."

"The product is a bit complex."

"The deployment process should be simplified because it is not something that just anybody can do."

"I would rate the customer support five out of ten. Customer support has very closed departments, requiring us to shuffle between them to get one thing done because representatives have limited accessibility."

"The tool must improve the 1-Touch recovery of Oracle and Active Directory."

"Commvault is complex even if the product has comprehensive solutions and covers pretty much every technology out there. There's no unified way to manage all of the products on one single console."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"The dashboard could be more intuitive."

"I think Veeam Cloud Connect could be more stable, scalable, and secure. I think better pricing is needed."

"The solution needs to be more scalable. There should be no reason to set up Veeam Cloud Connect and have 10 servers in order to have a cloud backup. The initial setup could be easier."

"The solution could improve the stability."

"We need the solution to offer IT storage."

"The bandwidth optimization needs to be improved and have better efficiency so that you send fewer amounts of data from one site to the other."

"The pricing is much higher than what our clients expect it to be."

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

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Commvault licensing is a perpetual license so only the support is being renewed yearly."

"I looked at this at the beginning of the year and I don't remember what the prices were for all the other services, but I thought that Metallic's was fair. It was also highly rated, which was even more important than cost because I need a reliable, secure, backup method."

"Commvault is more expensive than Veeam, which is the reason that we are changing to Veeam for cloud environments."

"Everyone else offers the subscription-based model nowadays, while Commvault Complete Data Protection still has the traditional license model, where you must buy a set of licenses. You pay for one hundred licenses even if you only use fifty virtual machines, so the licensing model needs improvement."

"We like that there is no extra cost for SharePoint, Teams, or OneDrive. It is all mimicking Microsoft's model. Every user has one terabyte of space. When users start using OneDrive, everybody has one terabyte that will be backed up included in the price."

"New licensing is easy and affordable."

"The complete license gives us options for all the features. Commvault does not license based on storage or the management components. It can integrate with any storage vendor. That means that when we are out of storage and need more, we can integrate without additional licensing. In my opinion, Commvault needs to reduce the licensing cost by 20 to 40 percent to make it cost-efficient."

"The pricing is far better than we had in the past. The license for Dell EMC was not too expensive, but the storage, given that Dell EMC is based on data domains, was pretty expensive."

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

"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."

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

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

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

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

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

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."
