Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There's no impact on the endpoint. It runs in the background and it's something that you install and then forget about."
"The cloud integration is a massive win for us, giving us a single backup service for all of our on-premise and cloud systems."
"The VM backups and the recovery from cloud infrastructure are valuable."
"IntelliSnap for snapshot collection is one of the most efficient and easiest ways to back up large amounts of data."
"One of the most valuable features is the encryption which helps save you from ransomware. Because the data is already encrypted, it cannot be encrypted again."
"It never fails. Sometimes we miss a backup, but there's always a reason for it, and it's not the fault of Commvault. In the last three years, we've never had to open a ticket with Commvault."
"Commvault is both very stable and scalable."
"The features I find most helpful in Commvault are its ability to perform incremental backups and significantly reduce backup times for our diverse multi-architecture, multi-environment environment."
"It is an easy system to use. The support, if needed, is always willing to help."
"Being an appliance-based solution, we were able to migrate backup solutions without having to purchase a lot of hardware separately."
"I really like the reporting options you get for various email reports."
"VM backup is much faster and more reliable, as I can test my backups with Data Copy Access jobs."
"If you are a large organization, this is a product for you."
"What I found most valuable in Unitrends is its simple user interface. It also works reliably."
"The predictive analytics are great and the reporting is awesome."
"The ability to back up both physical and virtual appliances under one roof."
"The only problem is that some of what we snap most of is the VMs. We found about 10% of the VMs that we can't snap because they're too interactive. It actually causes the application to crash."
"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."
"The initial installation is straightforward and took approximately two days. However, the process could be more simple."
"Support could improve and the initial configuration would be easier with assistance from a professional engineer."
"There is room for improvement in terms of data security."
"The customer support is not good."
"With so many features, sometimes you cannot find what you are looking for in the interface and you have to dig into books online to find out how to solve an issue."
"Not everyone has agents for everything and Commvault has agents for most products. It's the most complete."
"Techs don't see to be well-versed in troubleshooting issues that arise and tickets stay opened for weeks for resolution."
"In terms of improvement, the UI, especially in the recovery section, is unclear about which repository it uses."
"It seems like Unitrends moved away from enterprise customer engagement and moved more towards the managed service provider market."
"Probably the biggest issue I've had is actually paying for the unit, and part of that problem is that they use a third party for the billing."
"There's a lot that can be made better. For example, it could be more scalable."
"The solution’s UI can be improved. I am saying this because I have seen solutions with better UIs."
"Network-based storage stability could be improved."
"Follow up for the DRaaS service setup. I'm still waiting to schedule a DRaaS test after upgrading several months ago."
