We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"This solution gives me the full insight without having to use other products, metrics, or reporting tools.""We are using a KVM system in our cloud, and this solution works very well with it.""Whoever has an Endpoint license can store unlimited data on the cloud.""It's very stable.""The most valuable feature of Metallic is its flexibility and user-friendly.""We have multiple workloads, including SQL, Oracle, SAP HANA, especially Sybase, as well as file systems, VMs, and Exchange mailboxes. Commvault provides very good support for them.""We specialize in Commvault and IntelliSnap. Commvault covers all our customers' backup needs in one system, and they have complete control over their Snapshot backups. Snapshots are important to our customers because of the size of their data sets.""The solution’s user interface for managing the on-prem environment is good."

"What I like most about Veritas SaaS Backup is that it is easy to work on.""The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it.""We're comfortable using this kind of technology. It's user-friendly.""The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature.""It's a good solution. It's pretty stable.""The most valuable features are the ease of administration and the ease of configuration.""The most valuable feature is that it is simple to use.""It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field."

Cons
"The interface could be improved because it has two different consoles.""This product is overly complex to operate and run.""I would like Commvault to have a feature for cybersecurity threats, e.g. securing the target backup repository. Commvault just started testing and releasing this feature, but it needs to be stabilized.""They can improve the VMware recovery and VMware backup. There is an improvement area on the VMware infrastructure. They can make available what they call a VSA proxy. They can have an appliance-type setup to deploy VSA backups and help recover quicker. They can have an appliance ready. Instead of having to have a server dedicated to that and installing software on a server, they can just provide an actual appliance for that.""When you deploy Complete Data Protection for past services, it's more complicated because you cannot directly back up from the previous service host. We have to build a proxy server, like a middleware, to directly access the past database server. It's complex and hard for beginners to figure out.""What I need is deeper CLI documentation for both QCommand and SQL queries.""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 Java interface is not great. The Command Center interface is far better and it looks nicer, but it doesn't have all the powerful features available in the CommServe/Java console. The place to improve the product is on the management interface level."

More Commvault Cloud Cons →

"The implementation could be improved. The server setup is very easy, but some specific client implementation, for example, Oracle or SQL servers, are a little bit complicated. they should offer a bit more assistance with the setup for these particular items.""Technical support can be improved.""Licensing has been a struggle. It went from bronze, silver to gold. Licensing needs more sophistication. It has features that are sold as separate add-ons.""When you finish a project, the client should have the opportunity to browse the files rather than simply ending the contract. Also, it's not possible to recover earlier versions. It should be possible to have a database for recovering files after you finish a contract. There's no solution for this from Veritas.""The usability of the solution isn't the best.""The technical team wasn't very helpful.""In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines.""Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "If budget allows using the per socket license and not the agent based with per GB counter for Dedup is the way to go."
  • "There is now a subscription based licence option that, depending on your environment, could offer a more efficient method to licence the solution if you are OPEX cost driven rather than CAPEX."
  • "New licensing is easy and affordable."
  • "Licensing could be better explained. Sometimes, it's unclear what features are available in different licensing models."
  • "Compared to other competitors and vendors the pricing is fair."
  • "In my experience, compared to solutions like Veritas and Veeam, while they do have their technical pluses and minuses, Commvault can save you on average forty percent initially, and then twenty to twenty-five percent annually."
  • "The price could perhaps be lower as well."
  • "Our cost is around $20,000 per month. The previous year, it was around $30,000 per month. It now costs less because Commvault changed the licensing type for providers."
  • More Commvault Cloud Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The program is quite expensive."
  • "SaaS Backup isn't the most expensive solution."
  • "This solution is not cheap and not expensive but priced in the mid-range."
  • "I would rate this solution's pricing as five out of five."

    Questions from the Community
    Top Answer:The convenience of backing up and restoring simultaneously is very valuable.
    Top Answer:The tool is affordable. I rate the pricing a six out of ten. Implementation requires additional costs because we need Commvault Professional Services.
    Top Answer:Data center backup must be improved. We also want the product to provide us with a cloud-based backup. If we use Microsoft Exchange Online for email services, we want to know how to get a backup in… more »
    Top Answer:Veritas is loaded with features because the appliance is ready to integrate with the cloud in cases where the customers have a hybrid or cloud environment.
    Top Answer:I believe there are different licenses for different features and performance enhancements on the appliance. So far, we only have licenses for adding clients and also for monitoring and deduplication.
    Top Answer:The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of… more »
