Find out in this report how the two eDiscovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It integrates redundant storage and preserves jams in a storage area, providing up to 70% compression rate."
"Commvault provides the status of a backup or restore operation."
"The rate of duplication is great."
"What I found most valuable in Commvault Complete Data Protection is its deduplication technique, mainly because the solution has the highest deduplication ratio, giving you higher storage capacity."
"The solution also provides me with a complete view of our data. I write scripts to report information from the Command Center daily. I report it in HTML and have the status of the last day for the whole environment."
"The product alerts the security team about threats."
"Metallic helped me to restore the data within an hour, which is much faster than restoring from Microsoft services."
"The product's stability is good enough."
"The most valuable features are automatic document and email retention."
"You can retrieve any type of data; for example, if a user accidentally deletes data, as an admin with access to Google Vault, you can easily restore the deleted data."
"Google Vault acts as a great method for retrieving files from Google Drive and Gmail."
"Search feature is valuable for our customers."
"Google Vault is a solution we can use for the data export of end-users."
"The audit part of the tool is the most useful for me."
"Data retention is very valuable to us."
"In my opinion, the search functionality is the best feature. With Google Vault, we can quickly search for any email within Gmail accounts. And then we can get further information, such as if you want the full header or want to know any extra details about the emails."
"The most common feedback I get in terms of Commvault is that it can be complex. I always refer my customers back to their own environment. Almost everything that goes into Commvault is a request by a customer. While it can be complex, it can also be very simple. You just need to understand your environment in order to make sure that you really need to turn on that extra feature or thing inside of Commvault. Maybe you don't need those things. It really depends on how simple or complex your environment is, whether you need all of Commvault's features."
"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."
"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."
"Commvault could benefit from increased automation to streamline processes and enhance predictability."
"It takes a lot of technical expertise to implement. Commvault could increase the training it provides to customers and partners."
"Commvault Complete Data Protection would benefit from improving their training resources."
"The product is expensive."
"The new HTML5-based management portals are very nice, but do not yet have all of the features of the Java-based client."
"Google Vault needs to improve its data export timing because sometimes, it takes a very long time to export the data."
"The knowledge base is not as in-depth as it should be."
"The price of the solution could improve and the search could be easier."
"Although it does a good job of searching through data and exporting it, I feel that Google Vault should have more export options available to the user. As a reseller, our customers demand a lot from their Google products, and exporting is one area where there's a lot of improvement needed."
"eDiscovery could be improved with additional information and an easier way to retain it."
"Google Vault lacks speed."
"It would be nice if Google would let us download the data in different formats."
"One thing I've noticed is that it splits the data files into multiple parts, like the PFT files. For example, when there is a large data size of any account, the backup process splits it into many files. This can be confusing and not very efficient when trying to manage the backups."
