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

"The most valuable feature is the ability it gives me to automate backups well and consistently, and to follow up on them as well."

"The granularity of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is very good. We've used all of it, recovering data from each of the four systems that we back up with it, and it works very well."

"It runs all the tests and emails us the reports. We take daily, weekly, and monthly snapshots, and I integrate the storage snapshot scripts with the Commvault workflow. The Commvault workflow runs all the scripts and sends us the reports. It also features cloud-side reports and workflows. Commvault has many tools for backing up, restoring, and archiving things, but we use another service for our archives."

"We switched to Commvault because we were looking to centralize management. This reduced IT administrator time as well as providing stability and reliability for data backups in a single console."

"I recommend this solution to others."

"The email archiving feature is very smooth and better than others."

"This is a very stable product."

"The solution is scalable."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"Technical support is perfect, they are very helpful."

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

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

"The most valuable feature of Veeam Cloud Connect is the server backups, such as the Microsoft Windows server. Additionally, the updates provide useful enterprise functionality."

"The most valuable feature is the snapshot capability."

"It's a stable solution."

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

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

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"The price should be reduced because it is too expensive for our customers."

"They can improve the VMware recovery and VMware backup. There is an improvement area on the VMware infrastructure. They can make available what they call a VSA proxy. They can have an appliance-type setup to deploy VSA backups and help recover quicker. They can have an appliance ready. Instead of having to have a server dedicated to that and installing software on a server, they can just provide an actual appliance for that."

"HyperScale X is not user-friendly. There are many settings that have to be done on your own."

"The retention log feature could be an issue for us and can be improved. The backup schedule can also be better in terms of how you set it up."

"Training."

"The setup was a little bit difficult for a non-IT person like me."

"They don't market their products well. They don't do a lot of marketing to enable them to move forward."

"Its dashboard could be improved to provide a summarized version of all the jobs instead of having to go through each one of them. We should easily be able to glance at all issues. If I had not gone with the on-premise version, I would have had regular reports with the cloud version. It would be an advantage if they increase the compression rate of the backup. I am keeping it on-prem, so I'll need more disks depending on the policies that I have in the retention period. Its price could also be lower. If a good solution can be cheaper, it is always an advantage."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"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 were interested in investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in VMware. VMware right now is one of the biggest solutions in the world, in terms of the IT environment. But for Cloud Connect it's not. I think they need the cloud version to reach more customers, to enable the cloud version to be used by more people."

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

"The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors."

"The solution could improve the stability."

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

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

"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."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"The solution is bundled with hardware licensing. If I want to increase the hardware, I have to buy exactly the same because it's based on the core hardware license. We cannot tell discount because we have an NDA signed with Commvault because of my academic license. The solution is more expensive than NetBackup and Veeam but cheaper than Rubrik."

"The solution is highly-priced."

"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."

"The price could always be lower."

"The tool is affordable."

"Our yearly cost is around €20,000... The cost is based on the number of users and the amount of data. They sell it per terabyte."

"It is cheaper than NetBackup, but its price can be lower. If a good solution can be cheaper, it is always an advantage. Its licensing is on a yearly basis."

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

"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."

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

"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."

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

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