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.

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

"We have seen a high return of value, and management is also happy."

"Our primary use case is for backing up the .NES file system, and I backup VMware and Windows cloud servers."

"The data protection itself is very good compared to other products."

"Commvault is an all-in-one product that is very simple and operational for business use."

"The most valuable feature of Metallic is its flexibility and user-friendly."

"The user interface is very easy to navigate, the interface itself is very simple, and overall it is doing the job we need it to do while supporting all types of backup systems quite easily."

"Over the years, it has actually become cheaper, due to the fact that I've become smarter about how to use it better."

"Commvault provides data protection. Their engine is ransomware-agnostic so ransomware doesn't compromise our backup data. Therefore, we can rely on their data protection to recover and back up our production system."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"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."

"It's a stable solution."

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

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

"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 feature is the snapshot capability."

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

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

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"The user creation and management capabilities could be improved."

"Support could improve and the initial configuration would be easier with assistance from a professional engineer."

"I would like to see a more user-friendly GUI."

"There is room for improvement in the Knowledge Base and error reporting. I would like to see best practices in the Knowledge Base, and have the ability to diagnose errors without contacting support."

"The implementation is very difficult and should be improved and made easier."

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

"The main area for improvement is that we sometimes experience negative effects from their updates. If they had a larger test area for their updates, that would help."

"Additional SaaS application support would be good... we have SaaS applications that may not be big enough for Commvault to support yet. Box.com is one we've asked about for years, and it's just not on the radar, as far as I know."

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."

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

"The dashboard could be more intuitive."

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

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

"I also think the cost factor is a major issue for Veeam because it's a very expensive soluton especially when the client wants support for VMware."

"The biggest thing that Cloud Connect needs is native deduplication."

"The bandwidth optimization needs to be improved and have better efficiency so that you send fewer amounts of data from one site to the other."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Commvault is more expensive than Veeam, which is the reason that we are changing to Veeam for cloud environments."

"If budget allows using the per socket license and not the agent based with per GB counter for Dedup is the way to go."

"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."

"In India, this is a very expensive product."

"Commvault licensing is a perpetual license so only the support is being renewed yearly."

"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."

"Commvault Backup & Recovery is priced fairly, and its performance-to-cost ratio is also better than fair."

"We have checked some other products, but we are not testing them because price-wise, Commvault is better than the other solutions."

More Commvault Cloud pricing and cost advice

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

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

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

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

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

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

"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."
