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

"It's an enterprise product. It's a stable product. We have good support. Almost all databases are in the scope."

"The cloud integration is a massive win for us, giving us a single backup service for all of our on-premise and cloud systems."

"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."

"It's very stable."

"Commvault has a unique administration platform with more features than its competitors."

"The solution is easy to use and the duplication is quite good."

"It's easy to configure multiple jobs and media agent locations for each server. We do offsite backups for all of our servers, but we also do onsite hourly backups of them. That has benefited us several times when we had an incident and didn't want to roll back a server an entire day."

"The most valuable features of Commvault Complete Data Protection are the complete feature sets it provides in one platform. You are able to backup many different types of data, such as virtual machines, servers, cloud, endpoints, Microsoft Office365, and Gmail. The usage of the solution is flexible."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"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."

"Replication without network changes."

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

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

"This solution works really well and it is simple to deploy."

"The best part about this solution is that it just works."

"The most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect are its ease of use and the portal is very useful."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"Commvault Cloud currently lacks support for backing up Proxmox environments, which limits its functionality."

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

"We previously had difficulty with the support being foreign."

"It is a little more complicated than it really needs to be."

"I need documentation for Azure backups. One expectation that I have is regarding PDF documentation. When I was trying to browse the documentation, I could not locate that."

"One issue we face is the complexity of the console. That could be improved on. It takes users time to get familiar with Commvault. On average, it takes our customers between one and three months to learn it. The console and the way you configure Commvault have very advanced settings. It takes time to understand how it works."

"Commvault should keep and continue to develop the Java GUI."

"Suppose I am restoring a particular file. If I want to restore the permissions only from that particular folder, that is not possible. I have to restore all the data for that particular folder. If there was an option to just restore the permissions, that would be better."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"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."

"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."

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

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

"If a customer has a low budget, Veeam may be too expensive."

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

"The dashboard could be more intuitive."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared with other backup technologies, Commvault is a bit more costly, but we are satisfied with the support, the services, and the features that we get with Commvault."

"The product is cheap."

"I would rate the price of Commvault Cloud seven out of ten with ten being the cheapest."

"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."

"In my experience, compared to solutions like Veritas and Veeam, while they do have their technical pluses and minuses, Commvault can save you on average forty percent initially, and then twenty to twenty-five percent annually."

"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."

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

"Commvault is quite high in terms of pricing and licensing."

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

"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."

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

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

"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."

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