Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 data is well-protected. It doesn't age off until it's copied. That's a big feature right there. When you reach the end of your retention, it does not expire until the secondary copy is completed. That allows you to hold onto data that otherwise would have aged off by retention. I like that feature. It's hard to just delete or lose data using the Commvault platform.""It runs all the tests and emails us the reports. We take daily, weekly, and monthly snapshots, and I integrate the storage snapshot scripts with the Commvault workflow. The Commvault workflow runs all the scripts and sends us the reports. It also features cloud-side reports and workflows. Commvault has many tools for backing up, restoring, and archiving things, but we use another service for our archives.""Real-time synchronization is a good feature.""The solution's stability is excellent.""Whoever has an Endpoint license can store unlimited data on the cloud.""The solution is scalable.""The diversity on offer is very, very good. Everything is supported. It's great."

More Commvault Cloud Pros →

"Organizations can streamline governance processes and improve compliance by utilizing automated classification to tag and categorize data.""The archive allows the customers to search any items as far back as five or ten years ago.""User behavior is very smooth.""I use the solution to find data loss and restore the data.""Veritas Enterprise Vault is highly stable and has low-maintenance.""The integration capabilities are second to none.""Enterprise is a user-friendly product.""We use the solution to archive emails."

Cons
"It is a little more complicated than it really needs to be.""The initial installation is straightforward and took approximately two days. However, the process could be more simple.""When we send a query to Commvault, they take a long time to answer our questions.""The setup is not that straightforward or easy. Even the documentation is not generic or public like other products. You have to be a partner or you have to have a specific account and download it from the vendor themselves.""I would assess the Command Center as a very useful but sometimes difficult tool. It is multipurpose. It has all the features of logging and monitoring, especially for the actual setup. For us, it is easy because we work daily with it, but for customers who only use it once a week, they sometimes have some difficulties. Command Center is not user-friendly for beginners.""This product is overly complex to operate and run.""I would like more communication informing us on what Commvault is doing in the background.""We are using a production environment with customer-sensitive data on it. As per our central bank rules and regulations, we can't keep our customer's sensitive data in the cloud."

More Commvault Cloud Cons →

"Dealing with personal information, such as documents that contain a personal number, personal ID or something like that should be improved. Sometimes it works poorly in that regard.""The integration needs to improve.""Veritas Enterprise Vault should improve its indexing and customization options.""Veritas Enterprise Vault's cloud backup solution should include the journal archiving feature along with the standard licensing package.""The quality of support by Veritas has declined in the last year.""The solution is not user-friendly and the restoration is not fast. It's also tricky to get information from it.""Cost is high for Veritas Enterprise Vault.""The file-level archiving is very important in Enterprise Vault 12 and this doesn't really exist in early versions."

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."
