Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Commvault can actually come in and assist you with aspects of the implementation - and they are quite helpful.""The solution's interface is easy to use. For manageability, it doesn't matter where the resource is coming from or going to. That's the great power of the Control Panel: It's easy to use and does not matter if you manage on-prem or cloud resources.""It is much more scalable and flexible than everything else in the market.""All the management is centralized from that CommServe server. You can manage all the clients and all the infrastructure using one interface and one server... Using the Commvault interface, you can customize and generate multiple reports to easily see what is protected and what is not protected in the environment.""The diversity on offer is very, very good. Everything is supported. It's great.""The recovery features are useful. It is easy to recover data. If something happens, we can easily recover data. We have faced ransomware issues twice, and we recovered because of Commvault.""We can go from one page to another page, from office backups to VM backups, or applications like secret backups. So everything can be configured or restored from a single pin.""The product alerts the security team about threats."

"This is a good backup interconversion solution because all the masters and the targets backups are on the same system. It is easy to administrate for a single point of access for clients.""The initial setup gets easier the more you do it.""The product enables me to recover the information of the appliances in the organization.""The policy-based backup feature is very helpful.""The most valuable feature is that the backup and restoring process is very fast.""The solution uses minimal resources.""I think the solution is very intuitive, effective, and easy to use.""It has been our go-to product for backup."

Cons
"I would assess the Command Center as a very useful but sometimes difficult tool. It is multipurpose. It has all the features of logging and monitoring, especially for the actual setup. For us, it is easy because we work daily with it, but for customers who only use it once a week, they sometimes have some difficulties. Command Center is not user-friendly for beginners.""I really struggled to configure HyperScale X as there was a lack of detailed documentation.""It does not have an easy deployment. The deployment is not something that just anybody can go in and deploy.""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.""I think there is room for improvement with the reports. They are a little poor.""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.""Persistent binding is a feature that I would like to see in the next release of Commvault.""The solution needs better Office 365 data backup management."

More Commvault Cloud Cons →

"It is not easy because I have worked a lot on the tool, and in case it gets corrupted at any point, it is not easy to restore the data without losing information is not easy.""The monitoring could be a bit better.""The product should provide more AI and ML features.""In terms of implementing the solution, it's quite technical. You need to be knowledgable in order to pull off a successful deployment.""Veritas NetBackup Appliance can improve by having a more direct connection to the cloud. It should have the technology to be able to directly communicate with the cloud.""The hybrid model is not that efficient if we want to off-site data; it takes a lot of time to upload the data on a regular basis.""It's an expensive solution.""I would like to see support for databases such as MySQL and MongoDB."

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."

  • "Appliances do not come cheaply."
  • "Overall, Veritas is a good solution; the problem is the cost."

  • "The licenses are purchased on appliances with the capacity they require."
