The solution is easy to use after four months of training. Before implementing, make sure you negotiate well and agree to the terms and conditions in advance. Once you implement it, you will use it for at least the next five to six years. So, you must negotiate and file a contract, the best way to know the cost of ownership in the beginning itself. Overall, I rate the solution an eight-point five out of ten.
The product provides the availability of servers. If one server is down, the other two work in that space. You get all solutions in one product and don't have to worry about the type of server, storage, or switch network you need to buy to set up the backup software. I rate Commvault HyperScale X a nine out of ten.

Involve Commvault support from the start, at the implementation level, to be sure that you implement the infrastructure with best practices. What can happen is that, a year after you implement the infrastructure, you notice that your clusters have not been properly set up and it's too late to change anything. Use their support during the implementation. Have some sessions with them to understand the whole infrastructure and the whole process of deploying HyperScale X. We made a mistake in our first implementation, three years ago (Hyperscale 1.5). The recommended number of nodes per cluster was six, but for some reason we added nine. Because of that, we had some issues. Don't make the same mistake. However, HyperScale X, released in the last year, is a little bit more scalable and more flexible. Clusters can exceed nine nodes and can be extended further (current limitations per cluster are around 5 PB). If someone is buying Commvault today, they should try to buy HyperScale X. It's the next generation and has some advantages. It can help avoid issues with clusters, moving forward. Overall, we have been impressed by the features of the solution and by the responsiveness of Commvault's support. We like the product and we feel we made a good decision in acquiring Commvault and working with them. We are pretty happy.
We are a partner of Commvault. We are an implementation partner. If a user decides to implement Comvault on-prem, they should select a partner who can support them better with the coordination of Commvault. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. I like the scalability, steadiness, and reliability of the product. We can rely on Commvault for the data. 100%, you will get your data back. That's why we use it.
Anyone considering to implement Commvault HyperScale X should do so based on their own needs. There are many tools you can use, but it is complex even if you are running the command center. VM is an easier tool, but it has reduced functionality. I would rate the product a seven out of 10 overall.
HyperScale X is really user-friendly and has a lot of features. It's also cheaper, faster, and more stable than its competitors. I would rate HyperScale X as eight out of ten.
Commvault Cloud is the ultimate cyber resilience platform built to meet the demands of the hybrid enterprise. Beyond its core functionality of data backup and recovery across diverse workloads, including applications, databases, virtual machines, and files, Commvault Cloud stands out as a robust defense against ransomware. Going beyond backup, the platform integrates advanced data security features such as encryption, access control, and threat detection, safeguarding against unauthorized...
