Find out what your peers are saying about Commvault, Veeam Software, AvePoint and others in SaaS Backup."The granularity of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is very good. We've used all of it, recovering data from each of the four systems that we back up with it, and it works very well."
"The 1-Touch recovery feature is helpful for all customers."
"The embedded deduplication engine is really good because we use a Near Line SAS disk as a repository for our backups, and we don't need to pay for another appliance such as a Data Domain or Quantum so that we can have hardware-based deduplication."
"The expanse of the decoys that they have is valuable. They cover everything on the corporate side that you would think of, such as Windows, Linux, and even applications like SAP. They also go into the OT environment and emulate OT devices as well."
"The ability to manage everything from a single pane of glass is another major advantage."
"The most valuable feature is sharing data sets like they're in a private cloud. We call it our "private cloud" because we can share anything that is inside our backup set with our colleagues or with other people, and yet, everything is still in Belgrade, in Serbia. It's not somewhere else on cloud servers. Everything is in our environment."
"The solution includes the best compatibility metrics for integration and they are managed by Google support."
"I'm a big fan of the reporting. You can build your own reports; it's very customizable. You can have individual reports going to groups of people or individuals. You can have them go out multiple times a day. It's basically a free-for-all as far as reporting goes. If anybody wants a specific job report every day, you can build it, schedule it, and have it go out and never touched it again. It's pretty nice."
"It's a user-friendly solution."
"It gives you an option to back up to the cloud or back up to on-premise, or to backup to cloud storage."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The most valuable features are the support for both NAS and NFS."
"The most valuable feature is the simplicity in configuration and use."
"They should move the CommServe outside of Windows machines and the database should be distributed among servers. It's still a single point of failure."
"We had some small issues with the reporting, but that was just a matter of fine-tuning the kinds of messages we receive by email. It was a little overwhelming in the initial configuration. So we reviewed our configuration with our partner and customized the reports so that we only get the important reports. I haven't seen any big issues or things that the solution is missing."
"When we started using Commvault, we felt that there were some technical issues with managing it, but we are comfortable enough with managing it now. There were many issues, like index corrupting, when we first started, but all those issues were resolved by the Commvault tech team."
"Improved documentation and user training resources could contribute to a smoother onboarding process and more effective utilization of the platform's capabilities."
"Not everyone has agents for everything and Commvault has agents for most products. It's the most complete."
"I think there is room for improvement with the reports. They are a little poor."
"The reporting is complicated and should be simplified in an upcoming release."
"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."
"For newcomers or people who have less experience, it's a complex solution that could be simplified somewhat."
"Better integration with third-party databases and applications is needed."
"The features need to be updated to support the latest hardware, as it changes every year."
"I would like to see the graphical user interface improved to include all of the functionality because there are some things that you need to use the command-line interface for."
"There are still a few things on SharePoint that they need to correct in terms of how they backup and restore."
