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.

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

"The product is a reliable solution."

"The solution has provided our organization with a better security posture."

"From a real-life experience, I can say it cut down the time our customers spent on backup tasks by about 60 percent."

"This product has allowed us to recover data when we've had issues."

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

"The data is well-protected. It doesn't age off until it's copied. That's a big feature right there. When you reach the end of your retention, it does not expire until the secondary copy is completed. That allows you to hold onto data that otherwise would have aged off by retention. I like that feature. It's hard to just delete or lose data using the Commvault platform."

"We now have the capability to recover a virtual machine without relying on the NFS system, but instead are able to use certain features provided by Commvault."

"Its compression and deduplication allow us to store more backups and save storage space. The reporting is great; we are able to obtain critical business reports and infrastructure/usage information very easily."

More Commvault Cloud pros

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

"The deployment is quite simple. Users are generally happy because of the familiarity they have with the features. The solution offers good transparency for the end-user."

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

"The most valuable feature is the snapshot capability."

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

"The solution is extremely stable; we haven't come across any bugs, crashes, or glitches."

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

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

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

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

"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."

"The most common feedback I get in terms of Commvault is that it can be complex."

"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 workflow has room for improvement."

"The Java interface is not great."

"The stability of the tool could be improved."

"Commvault could make the product more cost-effective on the public cloud side. We are using this solution to back up whatever is still on-prem. We are not using it to back up what is on the public cloud because we have a native backup solution for that, which is provided by the vendor. As our footprint gets bigger, we will continue to evaluate this, but the last time that we did a cost analysis, the cost was not comparable to the solution that public clouds are offering."

More Commvault Cloud cons

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

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

"Doesn't back-up from KVM."

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

"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."

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

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

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

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"The product is cheap."

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

"The pricing is fairly in line with the other products we've compared it with recently. We do spend more on it than we did in our Backup Exec days, but it's fairly competitive with some of the other best-in-class data protection platforms."

"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."

"The price is not cheap, but when you compare it to the other products they are all almost the same level in terms of price."

"Originally, it was really attractive when we were deployed on-prem. They have since built and moved it to the cloud, which I am a big fan of. I have all my security tools in the cloud, but it came with a significant increase in pricing. We ended up negotiating a better price because we have been a long-term customer, and I have also spoken on their behalf quite a few times, but if I have to buy it at its current rate, I am not sure if I would be a customer. It is expensive."

"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."

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."

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

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

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

"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."

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

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."
