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

"Great archive feature, OnePass, for the file system and Exchange servers."

"It's great for getting data back."

"The convenience of backing up and restoring simultaneously is very valuable."

"Commvault is a very stable product."

"Commvault software is a single platform where you can enable whatever you want to use, like endpoint protection. You can enable those licenses on a single platform screen. This is where I see the value ad. This is a single management tool."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to backup over the dedicated Fiber Channel directly from SAN."

"IntelliSnap for snapshot collection is one of the most efficient and easiest ways to back up large amounts of data."

"The solution provides us with a single platform to move, manage, and recover our data across on-premise locations. Some of the guys have been using it to move a virtual machine from VMware to the Microsoft solution, Hyper-V. They back it up and then they restore to the different virtual machine provider, and that works great."

More Commvault Cloud pros

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

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

"It hasn't given us any issues so far."

"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."

"The most valuable feature of Veeam Cloud Connect is the server backups, such as the Microsoft Windows server. Additionally, the updates provide useful enterprise functionality."

"The administration and management integrate with multiple solutions, not just with one or two environments, even if they're not VMware products."

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

"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."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"Just to keep it running is time-consuming. There are five people on my team. Commvault was supposed to be one of the less time-consuming solutions, but in reality it takes 60 percent of our time just to keep it running, and that's not even fine-tuning it; that's just to keep it running."

"The initial setup is rather complex, especially when switching versions."

"The initial setup was complex."

"Our customers complain that this is a difficult product to manage."

"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 navigation of it needs improvement in terms of the UX. The product itself, it works as expected. It's all user experience and user interface improvements that could be made and it could be made a little more consumer-friendly."

"Not everyone has agents for everything and Commvault has agents for most products. It's the most complete."

"Could be easier to implement."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"The pricing is much higher than what our clients expect it to be."

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

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

"The security of encrypted data could be better."

"Doesn't back-up from KVM."

"We need the solution to offer IT storage."

"The solution could improve the stability."

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

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product’s pricing a five out of ten."

"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 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 solution is highly-priced."

"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."

"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 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."

"...the battle came down to pricing, as well as some small features, and Commvault was the best in all the criteria."

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 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."

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

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

"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."
