Unified data protection has simplified hybrid backups and has improved ransomware recovery speed

Commvault Cloud's best feature in terms of protection is that it provides data protection and accomplishes its job effectively. It offers a unified approach to backup across all environments, including on-premises, public cloud, and SaaS applications such as M365 and Salesforce. I also use it for virtual machines and databases. The unified protection approach helps my team manage different environments effectively. Before Commvault Cloud, I used a separate VM backup tool to protect the VMware environment. For database backup, I had to use the native tool or backup scripts. For the cloud part, I had to use the native AWS or Azure cloud tools. After moving to Commvault Cloud, a single policy or a set of backup policies is applied across virtual machines, databases, workloads, and cloud workloads. I can protect my environments, which reduces manual configuration errors. Regarding visibility, it provides one dashboard to manage and centralize monitoring of all workloads. It is very easy to track backup success or failure. I can see the SLA compliance and storage usage without needing to jump between tools to check or have visibility of it. Regarding the recovery experience, the recovery time has been reduced drastically by using Commvault Cloud. It has simplified cloud management and provides easier manageability to manage retention policies, encryption policies, and compliance rules. This helps reduce operational workloads. Commvault Cloud has impacted me very positively. It simplifies and unifies data protection across hybrid workloads. Instead of managing multiple backup tools for virtual machines, databases, and SaaS applications, I now have a single platform with consistent policies and centralized visibility. This has really reduced my operational complexity and improved backup reliability. Regarding the cyber resiliency posture, the immutable backups and ransomware recovery workflow give me greater confidence in recovering quicker from potential risks. Commvault Cloud has positively impacted me in several key areas: unified backup management across environments, reduced operational overhead, improved ransomware resiliency, faster recovery times, better visibility for compliance, and easier management of hybrid or cloud workloads.

User-friendly interface, and reasonably priced but the support needs improvement

While the solution is generally satisfactory, we encountered difficulties when attempting to seek assistance for issues we faced. Getting the necessary help proved to be quite challenging. The after-sales service is not ideal for French-speaking customers like us in Quebec. Unfortunately, there is no local support available for us. 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.

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."

"A very stable and scalable platform (you can backup/restore/protect a couple of MBs or hundred of TBs as well from the same console/platform)."

"The beauty of this solution is that it includes two disk libraries therefore backing up to tape will often not be required, unless very long term retention is needed and even then it is likely to be very infrequent."

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

"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."

"After deploying the Commvault solution, we are saving four to five hours a week."

"Technical support is great."

"As a company, we faced ransomware attacks twice, and both times, we recovered because of Commvault's backup and recovery solution."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"The interesting part of the solution is that the customer does not have to invest in a second site to store their offsite backups."

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

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

"I've found flexibility to be the most valuable feature, and I also like that it's scalable and that the stability is okay."

"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."

"It's a stable solution."

"The most valuable feature is the snapshot capability."

"While there are some complexities, Veeam tries to keep the product simple and offers a good knowledge base. It's quite structured, so you can easily take one subject and learn about it simply by reading through the documentation."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"It would be nice to have just one email report come in, then we can filter out failures. If everything is backed up, we really don't need to see the report. If it is in a single report. A simpler customised report would be good."

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

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

"I would like to see more customizable reports. I have reports going right now, but the daily report, for example, shows something like 40 jobs that ran when there are just a few endpoints on there. I'd like to just know if the endpoint was successfully backed up, not how many times. More customizable reports would be nice to have."

"The reporting is complicated and should be simplified in an upcoming release."

"The customer support is not good."

"There is room for improvement in terms of data security."

"The setup was a little bit difficult for a non-IT person like me. My OneDrive is protected by multifactor authentication, and to get the backup to begin behind that multifactor authentication took a little bit of almost customized support, even though I was following the instructions and the videos. That process could have been easier."

More Commvault Cloud cons

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

"Doesn't back-up from KVM."

"It would be helpful if the enterprise edition was more complete. It's not as complete as the enterprise plus edition is."

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

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

"We need the solution to offer IT storage."

"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."

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

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost for Commvault is very expensive, even support is very expensive. The full cost of the solution is 50,000 INR per year, which includes 20 VM backups, server data backup, and 200 desktop and laptop agent licenses."

"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 worth the money."

"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."

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

"On a scale of one to ten, where ten is the highest price, I rate the pricing an eight."

"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."

"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."

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

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

"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 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."

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

"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."
