We performed a comparison between AWS Backup and Commvault Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution's most valuable features are its backup capability and tight integration with other AWS services."
"What I like about AWS Backup is its simple approach to a complex problem."
"The auto-scaling feature and the time efficiency of setting up AWS Backup are the most valuable aspects for us."
"The most valuable features of AWS Backup are point-in-time recovery and support resources."
"It works well as a backup and as a service."
"It provides an easy data migration process from on-premise to cloud."
"The advantage that AWS Backup has over competitors is that it's very simple."
"It's very easy to configure. Since it's a managed service, it's very straightforward to set up and use. And my customers get on with it very fast."
"HyperScale X is really user-friendly and has a lot of features. It's also cheaper, faster, and more stable than its competitors."
"Real-time synchronization is a good feature."
"IntelliSnap for snapshot collection is one of the most efficient and easiest ways to back up large amounts of data."
"The 1-Touch recovery feature is helpful for all customers."
"There's no impact on the endpoint. It runs in the background and it's something that you install and then forget about."
"All workloads can be integrated with Commvault. If we use a new technology, Commvault integrates with it. Commvault is a data management solution with support for building the DR side of things. With Commvault we can rapidly back up and restore any application we add to our environment."
"In the VM, we have Live Recovery, Live Mount, and Live Sync."
"This product has allowed us to recover data when we've had issues."
"If AWS could also add some hybrid cloud features to AWS Backup, that would be a significant improvement. For example, currently, AWS Backup only backs up to the S3 and Amazon Cloud, and you can only restore from the Amazon Cloud only. However, some people have hybrid environments. They have some workloads on-premises and some workloads in the cloud."
"There could be a centralized dashboard with a reporting feature notifying us of daily backup status."
"One improvement I would like to see in AWS Backup is the implementation of incremental backups."
"The solution's reporting features and restore features can be improved."
"One of the limitations of AWS Backup is that it only does file-based copying."
"AWS Backup could improve because you cannot use Glacier or anything but EFS."
"When it comes to encrypting data, it is not so convenient."
"Only the price could be improved."
"Not everyone has agents for everything and Commvault has agents for most products. It's the most complete."
"I would like to see more customizable reports. I have reports going right now, but the daily report, for example, shows something like 40 jobs that ran when there are just a few endpoints on there. I'd like to just know if the endpoint was successfully backed up, not how many times. More customizable reports would be nice to have."
"We've run into some issues when attempting to restore very large numbers of files. Of course, that's more of a design issue."
"The product is expensive."
"I just wanted to compare the features, which are there in EMC NetWorker, which are not available in Commvault. We have things using Networker."
"There could be improvements to the backup failures."
"The interface could be improved because it has two different consoles."
"Compared to Rubrik, MongoDB Data Protector, and NetBackup, Commvault is better. The licensing team was quite tricky recently because they stopped the unlimited files for that license. Commvault made a bank of 500GB only, a node-based license can take it, which is disappointing. Reporting needs to be more granular. Also, there should be a showback of data being backed up, and the backup cost to share the cost internally with the department."
