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 diversity on offer is very, very good. Everything is supported. It's great."

"HyperScale X is really user-friendly and has a lot of features. It's also cheaper, faster, and more stable than its competitors."

"The user interface is very easy to navigate."

"The solution is very stable and offers a good level of performance."

"Complete Data Protection is convenient because you can manage various types of databases, and it's pretty easy to set it up."

"Commvault can support any workload that you have in your environment."

"Commvault helps our administrators to minimize the time they spend on the backup tasks and that gives them time for other projects."

"Commvault helps to ensure broad coverage with the discovery of unprotected workloads. This is important. From the moment that we set it up, we mostly have customers telling us what they need to back up. Then, you can list the machines that are not yet protected. Sometimes, we can see that they are unaware of this, and say, "We didn't know that those servers were not protected yet," or "We did not back them up yet.""

More Commvault Cloud pros

"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."

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

"Replication without network changes."

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

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

"It's a stable solution."

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

"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."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"Training."

"Its competitor, Veeam, includes backup and replication in the same product. I don't know if Commvault has it or not, but they should if they don't."

"We've faced problems backing up our virtual machines."

"They can always improve the interface design to make it easier. Sometimes, you need to click two or three times to do something. They should look at what tabs are used most and make them more accessible, to cut the time it takes to get to that information."

"There are two ways to use it and I prefer the web-based one over the app. I wish they were a little bit more matched in what they offer because the features aren't as available in the web-based interface as they are in the app."

"Sometimes, for customers, the setup is difficult compared to Veeam, which we sometimes also sell to much smaller customers."

"Endpoint backup."

"But if something needs to be escalated to development, it's really hard to predict when the issue will be resolved, even having BCS."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"We need the solution to offer IT storage."

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

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

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

"Pricing could be improved and I also think archiving could be improved."

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

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"The solution is expensive, but it is worth the money."

"Commvault's license fee is per server-based."

"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 was not very popular because of its previous cost, but they have been working on the pricing, and now anyone can afford to use Commvault. They changed the modeling criteria for their pricing. Previously, there was only the capacity modeling based on your content capacity. In this case, they would give you a license and you would have to pay it. Now, most of the environment is virtualized so you can have the best CPU, VMs, etc. You buy whatever you need and pay for what you need."

"Using a subscription-based license has been advantageous."

"There is a bit of cost involved with signing up the entire solution. It's not a cheap solution."

"The price of Commvault HyperScale X is a lot higher than competitors. As a government institution, we have annual costs. We made a budget for one year in advance. It was difficult to calculate the other solution's costs because each solution has another way of licensing. The solution is expensive but it is very good and we know the good quality we will be receiving."

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

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

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

"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."
