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

"We have seen a high return of value, and management is also happy."

"Whoever has an Endpoint license can store unlimited data on the cloud."

"The most valuable feature of Metallic is its flexibility and user-friendly."

"Commvault provides the status of a backup or restore operation."

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

"Overall it has great features that fulfill our customers' expectations."

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

"Overall, this is a unified solution and it's wonderful."

More Commvault Cloud pros

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

"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."

"It's a great product because it's great scalability and it scales out from small to big companies perfectly."

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

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

"I am happy with their support, they are fast, and their response is very good."

"I like this solution and recommend it to clients."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"When we send a query to Commvault, they take a long time to answer our questions."

"The initial setup is rather complex, especially when switching versions."

"The reporting could be improved because the reports we get from our partner aren't sufficient. It isn't very detailed. I'm not sure if it's an issue with our partner or Metallic. They do a full backup on Monday and incremental backups throughout the week. However, we don't get detailed reports about the size of the incremental backups. The report just tells us whether a backup was successful."

"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 need to integrate configuration screens or videos (free training courses, webinars, demos) so that engineers with little experience can fully exploit the features that are offered or managed within the license that was acquired, and thus have better quality and completely satisfactory experience."

"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."

"The initial setup was complex."

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

More Commvault Cloud cons

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

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

"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."

"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."

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

"It would be helpful if the enterprise edition was more complete. It's not as complete as the enterprise plus edition is."

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

Pricing and Cost Advice

"...the battle came down to pricing, as well as some small features, and Commvault was the best in all the criteria."

"It would not be affordable for small to medium size organizations."

"Commvault Backup & Recovery is priced fairly, and its performance-to-cost ratio is also better than fair."

"Some of our customers say that Commvault is a very expensive solution, but Commvault has many features that the competitors don't have. It is not a good choice for a small or medium business, but it is a good choice for enterprise businesses."

"You have to pay for the licenses and the hardware you need for the Commvault environment. If you don't have all the hardware, you have to buy it, which can cost a few million. In the end, it's vital to protect our data, so the price isn't an issue."

"One of the most interesting aspects is that the licensing model can be modified. We're paying for our licensing by the client, as opposed to the size of the footprint of the backup, which decreased our cost by about 20 percent."

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

"Licensing could be better explained. Sometimes, it's unclear what features are available in different licensing models."

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

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

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

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

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

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