We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud and Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery (DR) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features are the ease of use, the graphical interface, and it's high speed."
"The features I find most helpful in Commvault are its ability to perform incremental backups and significantly reduce backup times for our diverse multi-architecture, multi-environment environment."
"It's a software-based solution so we just need a license to expand it."
"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 is a reliable solution."
"It's great for getting data back."
"IntelliSnap and file system backups are valuable features."
"We now have the capability to recover a virtual machine without relying on the NFS system, but instead are able to use certain features provided by Commvault."
"The most valuable feature is that it is journal-based and you don't have to replicate a lot of data."
"It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."
"The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes."
"Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature. Its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable."
"The workload can be moved directly if the disaster site is the main site."
"Point-in-time recovery and ease of deployment are valuable."
"RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast."
"The installation is straightforward if the version you have is compatible with your infrastructure."
"The product is a bit complex."
"The solution's breadth and depth of cloud support are good, but could be better. Some cloud features that are common-sense, especially on AWS, are not completely integrated yet in the product. They are a work-in-progress."
"They could work on the implementation of the features."
"The retention log feature could be an issue for us and can be improved. The backup schedule can also be better in terms of how you set it up."
"With so many features, sometimes you cannot find what you are looking for in the interface and you have to dig into books online to find out how to solve an issue."
"They should move the CommServe outside of Windows machines and the database should be distributed among servers. It's still a single point of failure."
"It would be nice to have just one email report come in, then we can filter out failures. If everything is backed up, we really don't need to see the report. If it is in a single report. A simpler customised report would be good."
"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 configuration process seems a bit challenging, and the installation takes a bit longer than expected."
"It would be good to have a critical application on the customer side."
"It should have features for recovering a group of virtual machines and full-scale security. For recovering all the VMs at once, they don't have a GUI option, and we have to use the command line."
"I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release."
"In the next release of this software, I would like to see options that help to decrease the bandwidth required, such as compressing the data."
"The solution is not easy to use. It's actually quite hard. If it could be simplified it might be better for the end user."
"I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment."
"It can have better integration. It would be good if, in addition to VMware VM, it can also support other hypervisors. I also want to see support for Oracle databases. As of now, it supports only SQL and Exchange. It would be good to also support other databases."
