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

"This solution gives me the full insight without having to use other products, metrics, or reporting tools."

"One of the most valuable features is the encryption which helps save you from ransomware. Because the data is already encrypted, it cannot be encrypted again."

"All the management is centralized from that CommServe server. You can manage all the clients and all the infrastructure using one interface and one server... Using the Commvault interface, you can customize and generate multiple reports to easily see what is protected and what is not protected in the environment."

"What is most valuable to me are the search features, where you can search through large backup data sets and find what you're looking for. Our data sets are so big that we're over the petabyte mark. To find a specific file for a specific user out of 10,000 users is a challenge... If we can glean from them a general description of where it might be, the search feature comes in very handy to actually locate it and restore it for them."

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

"Restoring is very fast. In testing, I did a restore for a single item from a mailbox. Within a minute, I had the message back in my mailbox. So, it didn't take hours or days. Obviously, there will be a limit. If we suddenly go into DR and have to restore five terabytes of emails for people, then it will take a couple of days, which would be acceptable. For general usage, where we have to do the odd restore, we have never had issues. It happens within minutes."

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

"Commvault Cloud provides an excellent solution."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"It's a stable solution."

"One of the most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect is it does not require the use of an extremely fast internet connection for it to work. The backup process is automated which is great."

"A really good feature is backing up the emails of the company."

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

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

"The most valuable feature is the snapshot capability."

"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 stability and restore options on the solution are very good."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"Commvault HyperScale X could improve by allowing backups of the storage area network (SAN)."

"The tool must improve the 1-Touch recovery of Oracle and Active Directory."

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

"This is not a very high standard product."

"Support for this product needs to be improved because I have seen a couple of cases where it is taking more than the required time to solve issues."

"Data center backup must be improved."

"The initial setup was complex."

"Persistent binding is a feature that I would like to see in the next release of Commvault."

More Commvault Cloud cons

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

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

"The dashboard could be more intuitive."

"The security of encrypted data could be better."

"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."

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

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

"Doesn't back-up from KVM."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"It is quite expensive when compared to other applications in the market. Its license is completely based on workload capacity. If I buy a license for 100 terabytes, I can back up anything. I can back up any platform, technology, or application, which is an advantage. Previously, we had to buy an agent for a particular application, and the cost was different for each agent. Now, the cost is completely based on the storage capacity. The license for one terabyte can cost around $1,700 for backing up anything from your environment."

"The price could perhaps be lower as well."

"Our cost is around $20,000 per month. The previous year, it was around $30,000 per month. It now costs less because Commvault changed the licensing type for providers."

"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."

"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."

"Commvault's pricing model and pricing structure were initially confusing, but once we worked more closely with the company, we were able to transition to a subscription license that saved us a lot of money."

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

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

"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."

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

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

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

"It's not the cheapest solution on the market but it's reliable, so we find it cost-effective."
