Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""It's a software-based solution so we just need a license to expand it.""Commvault can perform a backup no matter where you are, and it takes a backup every four hours. No matter when you come to the office, it'll take a backup if you're connected to the internet and check the system for online availability.""Metallic is user-friendly, cost-effective, and the technical support is impressive.""It helped us reduce the number of servers that are required for a stable operation.""The solution provides us with a single platform to move, manage, and recover our data across on-premise locations. Some of the guys have been using it to move a virtual machine from VMware to the Microsoft solution, Hyper-V. They back it up and then they restore to the different virtual machine provider, and that works great.""The product's stability is good enough.""It's very stable."

"The policy-based backup feature is very helpful.""We can add multiple appliances to the product.""Veritas NetBackup Appliance's most valuable feature is information backup.""We rarely need their help. I would give their technical support an 8.5 out of ten. We are satisfied.""NetBackup is based on really good architectural hardware, and Veritas has the best backup and replication technology in the world.""The standout feature is its connectivity and robust support. They are easily easy to get hold of, making it convenient for us.""I can confidently say that I have managed more than 30 or 50 appliances over different time periods, and yet I never had a single hardware failure.""The solution is very scalable."

Cons
"The main area for improvement is that we sometimes experience negative effects from their updates. If they had a larger test area for their updates, that would help.""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 speed of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is adequate. Microsoft controls the amount of bandwidth that people have when they're using Azure and the O365 environment... If they could work out something with Microsoft to improve the speed, that would help.""Its technical support could be better.""The reporting could be improved because the reports we get from our partner aren't sufficient. It isn't very detailed. I'm not sure if it's an issue with our partner or Metallic. They do a full backup on Monday and incremental backups throughout the week. However, we don't get detailed reports about the size of the incremental backups. The report just tells us whether a backup was successful.""The solution must provide deception files across the network.""Commvault HyperScale X is more expensive for hybrid environments than traditional solutions.""Commvault Complete Data Protection would benefit from improving their training resources."

More Commvault Cloud Cons →

"Veritas NetBackup Appliance could improve the configuration, it could be more user-friendly.""The product must improve its recovery features.""The scalability isn't great. Every time you want to add storage, you can't just add a little bit, you need to add a lot.""Veritas NetBackup Appliance could improve by having a site recovery feature.""Depending on the setup structure, it can be complex to implement.""Veritas NetBackup Appliance needs to improve its security. It needs to ensure that it is 100 percent protected against cyberattacks.""The solution could improve by providing more integration and security.""They could simplify the process of installing, and provide more space for data during the process."

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."

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