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.

Simple and flexible backup solution

I mainly use Cloud Connect as a cloud backup repository Cloud Connect's best features are its simplicity, flexibility, and constantly-expanding options. I've been using Cloud Connect for about four years. We encountered some issues with stability at the beginning, but these were fixed after…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"It's very stable."

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

"Scalability, as well as stability, are a couple of important parts of this solution."

"A very stable and scalable platform (you can backup/restore/protect a couple of MBs or hundred of TBs as well from the same console/platform)."

"It is a scalable solution."

"Metallic's customer service — their technical support and their sales and customer contact representatives — were world-class; among the best customer service interactions I've had with anyone, anywhere, for any reason."

"It helped us reduce the number of servers that are required for a stable operation."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"With Veeam, you get a useable copy when you restore a backup."

"The solution is already far more advanced than our customers require. It offers advanced scripting and automation pre-testing to support the custom library and custom tasks."

"The administration and management integrate with multiple solutions, not just with one or two environments, even if they're not VMware products, and we've found this to be a valuable feature."

"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."

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

"Veeam Backup and Replication is still one of the most cost-effective backup solutions on the market and offers very good value for money."

"The interesting part of the solution is that the customer does not have to invest in a second site to store their offsite backups."

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

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"We've run into some issues when attempting to restore very large numbers of files. Of course, that's more of a design issue."

"I would like more communication informing us on what Commvault is doing in the background."

"I need documentation for Azure backups."

"It is a little more complicated than it really needs to be."

"Bare-metal restore needs some work. It's not intuitive and seems to have been an afterthought."

"The navigation of it needs improvement in terms of the UX."

"We are using a production environment with customer-sensitive data on it. As per our central bank rules and regulations, we can't keep our customer's sensitive data in the cloud."

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

More Commvault Cloud cons

"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."

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

"The dashboard could be more intuitive."

"If a customer has a low budget, Veeam may be too expensive."

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

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

"I think the pricing could be improved and I also think archiving could be improved."

"The flexibility results in more administrative GUI. The GUI needs improvement."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. The subscription is based on a monthly basis. There are additional costs that vary depending on the size of the backup."

"One of the issues with backup vendors is that they overprice, or overvalue their products."

"The licensing costs are determined on a yearly basis. It might be around $40,000 or $50,000. There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."

"It is a bit more than other products, but when you consider the time savings, it is saving money."

"There is now a subscription based licence option that, depending on your environment, could offer a more efficient method to licence the solution if you are OPEX cost driven rather than CAPEX."

"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."

"It is not the cheapest solution. I think the pricing is fair for mid-side customers. It is between all the other options."

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

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

"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 licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

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

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

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

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

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