We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Commvault provides data protection. Their engine is ransomware-agnostic so ransomware doesn't compromise our backup data. Therefore, we can rely on their data protection to recover and back up our production system.""The compression and deduplication are great for optimizing bandwidth and speed. I don't have to worry about it or think about it, and, because it's a SaaS solution, I don't have to worry about the storage size.""The 1-Touch recovery feature is helpful for all customers.""Metallic helped me to restore the data within an hour, which is much faster than restoring from Microsoft services.""We use Commvault Command Center for backups and restores and for the creation of new clients. We use it for other functionalities as well. In terms of VMware, I can go directly to the Command Center, enter VMware, and I can search it directly. Command Center is very useful and it can be used for more advanced techniques.""Commvault's Command Center is one of the best solutions out there. You can rely on Commvault solutions for the most complex and most demanding environments.""It's easy to configure multiple jobs and media agent locations for each server. We do offsite backups for all of our servers, but we also do onsite hourly backups of them. That has benefited us several times when we had an incident and didn't want to roll back a server an entire day.""What is most valuable to me are the search features, where you can search through large backup data sets and find what you're looking for. Our data sets are so big that we're over the petabyte mark. To find a specific file for a specific user out of 10,000 users is a challenge... If we can glean from them a general description of where it might be, the search feature comes in very handy to actually locate it and restore it for them."

"It's a good solution. It's pretty stable.""The solution's hardware appliance is very scalable and very useful.""It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field.""he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources.""What I like most about Veritas SaaS Backup is that it is easy to work on.""I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope.""The most valuable features are the ease of administration and the ease of configuration.""The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature."

Cons
"This solution can be complex and difficult to administer because it supports all of the many platforms, so it would help if they could simplify it.""It takes a lot of technical expertise to implement. Commvault could increase the training it provides to customers and partners.""The initial setup was complicated.""The solution requires constant attention. Commvault is very complex. We are constantly making adjustments and working through hotfixes, updates, and issues.""Support for this product needs to be improved because I have seen a couple of cases where it is taking more than the required time to solve issues.""You need quite a lot of human resources to maintain a Commvault environment, to keep it operational. Also, it would be nice to if there were an easier way set up some Commvault components.""The reporting is complicated and should be simplified in an upcoming release.""I think the one thing that could be improved is the customer experience. The interface should be more user friendly."

More Commvault Cloud Cons →

"The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching.""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.""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 issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with.""In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines.""An area for improvement is the product's performance, especially how long it takes to do a job.""Technical support can be improved.""The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement.""The technical team wasn't very helpful."

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."
