Sanjay Singh Bisht - PeerSpot reviewer
Server Administrator at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees
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

"What I like about Commvault is that it's very robust."
"We can rely on Commvault for the data. 100%, you will get your data back."
"The product has the best features for scaling up and administering all the solutions from a single platform."
"It helped us reduce the number of servers that are required for a stable operation."
"The Commvault Complete Data Protection interface is straightforward to use."
"The most valuable features are the ease of use, the graphical interface, and it's high speed."
"The user interface is very easy to navigate."
"We are using a KVM system in our cloud, and this solution works very well with it."
"Veeam Cloud Connect is used extensively, and there's a plan to increase its usage in the future."
"For my needs, the solution offers everything I want."
"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."
"I am happy with their support, they are fast, and their response is very good."
"Generally speaking about Veeam, as a vendor, from a technical support perspective, I've really enjoyed the fact that they have a really high response rate."
"It hasn't given us any issues so far."
"In my opinion, the console or dashboard is the most valuable feature of this solution."
 

Cons

"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."
"The solution's breadth and depth of cloud support are good, but could be better. Some cloud features that are common-sense, especially on AWS, are not completely integrated yet in the product. They are a work-in-progress."
"The support needs more improvement. I feel that the support is not yet up to the mark, with not enough professional engineers to provide assistance."
"Commvault could make the product more cost-effective on the public cloud side."
"I need documentation for Azure backups."
"The solution requires constant attention. Commvault is very complex. We are constantly making adjustments and working through hotfixes, updates, and issues."
"For end-users, sometimes Commvault is too complex and, while it's getting better and better with the latest versions, it is still not there."
"The setup is not that straightforward or easy. Even the documentation is not generic or public like other products. You have to be a partner or you have to have a specific account and download it from the vendor themselves."
"I would like to see more advanced training courses made available to cover complicated use cases."
"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."
"Doesn't back-up from KVM."
"The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors. They could work to build something around that concept."
"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."
"We encountered some issues with stability at the beginning."
"The solution could improve the stability."
"The security of encrypted data could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of an integrator license is moderate and its features cover most customers."
"Hands down, Metallic provides us with more predictable costs for our backup requirements. You are getting what you pay for. If they are charging you X amount of dollars at that point, that is what you are going to pay. So far, I have not seen any hidden costs or any kind of gotchas. It is pretty cut-and-dry. They will let you know, "Hey, you are going to use our storage and it will cost you this much. You are going to use your storage, then we are going to charge you this much to backup.""
"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 price is not cheap, but when you compare it to the other products they are all almost the same level in terms of price."
"If budget allows using the per socket license and not the agent based with per GB counter for Dedup is the way to go."
"Our yearly cost is around €20,000... The cost is based on the number of users and the amount of data. They sell it per terabyte."
"The license is paid on an annual basis and the price is reasonable."
"It is cheaper than NetBackup, but its price can be lower. If a good solution can be cheaper, it is always an advantage. Its licensing is on a yearly basis."
"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."
"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."
"We are looking into how we can extend the license of this product."
"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."
"I think that this is one of the most cost-effective solutions."
"The price of the solution could be cheaper. There are monthly or yearly subscription options available. The annual subscription tends to be cheaper."
"It's not the cheapest solution on the market but it's reliable, so we find it cost-effective."
