We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud and N2WS Backup & Recovery based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I'm a big fan of the reporting. You can build your own reports; it's very customizable. You can have individual reports going to groups of people or individuals. You can have them go out multiple times a day. It's basically a free-for-all as far as reporting goes. If anybody wants a specific job report every day, you can build it, schedule it, and have it go out and never touched it again. It's pretty nice."
"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."
"The rate of duplication is great."
"This solution gives me the full insight without having to use other products, metrics, or reporting tools."
"Metallic helped me to restore the data within an hour, which is much faster than restoring from Microsoft services."
"There are many valuable features of Commvault HyperScale X giving many possibilities to complete jobs."
"One of the most valuable features is the encryption which helps save you from ransomware. Because the data is already encrypted, it cannot be encrypted again."
"The solution is very stable and offers a good level of performance."
"The recovery time is fantastic and proven. Also, by providing a simple interface, the solution lowers the cost."
"The backup and recovery are the most valuable features. So, our developers can work with confidence."
"N2WS Backup & Recovery is very easy to use and configure backup for AWS instances."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The backup and restore functionality is very easy to use and manage."
"Provides easy, one-click functionality and flexible backup policies and schedules for AWS workloads."
"The product is successful with the SMB market."
"Just to keep it running is time-consuming. There are five people on my team. Commvault was supposed to be one of the less time-consuming solutions, but in reality it takes 60 percent of our time just to keep it running, and that's not even fine-tuning it; that's just to keep it running."
"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."
"I need documentation for Azure backups. One expectation that I have is regarding PDF documentation. When I was trying to browse the documentation, I could not locate that."
"There could be improvements to the backup failures."
"I really struggled to configure HyperScale X as there was a lack of detailed documentation."
"Its competitor, Veeam, includes backup and replication in the same product. I don't know if Commvault has it or not, but they should if they don't."
"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."
"In an upcoming release, the reports could be better."
"Additional features I would like to see are the ability to restore to different vendors, AWS and Azure, and/or the ability or take the information out of the AWS cloud."
"The UI is a little dated and hard to use. Some of the buttons are a bit small. You have to go into the menu to get the settings you want."
"There is room for improvement in stability."
"The solution has the option to take backup on-prem servers, but it's not very efficient."
"The GUI has room for improvement."
"The GUI could be slightly improved."
"It's a global feature that the customer thinks they don't have enough tools to manage, to copy, to delay, and to classify the object file in the backup directory. So they need more tools to manage files in object directory."
"More documentation would be helpful, especially some step-by-step documents for recovery scenarios."
