We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud and Microsoft Exchange based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two File Archiving solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product's stability is good enough."
"We are using a KVM system in our cloud, and this solution works very well with it."
"Cloud integration."
"The data protection itself is very good compared to other products."
"Commvault can actually come in and assist you with aspects of the implementation - and they are quite helpful."
"Complete Data Protection is convenient because you can manage various types of databases, and it's pretty easy to set it up."
"The cloud integration is a massive win for us, giving us a single backup service for all of our on-premise and cloud systems."
"I can collect the target data, then we connect it to Commvault. There is not another system that can connect to our target database or target storage. This is very important for us, because there is the threat of malware right now. This can protect not only the product, but also the backup data from outside threats."
"Exchange is easy to use. It also has a built-in calendar for all the stuff I'm supposed to be looking at and doing. Exchange tells you if you have a doctor's appointment or a scheduled call. It also has a place to store and manage your contacts. If I want to add a new contact, it will put in information about that contact stored anywhere within the Microsoft Suite."
"It's so much of a part of what I do every day that I don't give it a lot of thought. It just works, for the most part, until it doesn't, in which case I call tech support."
"We've been using Exchange as an email platform. Our clients require multi-country, multi-regional email collaboration with controlled mail flow. The most valuable feature is the capability of message tracking and the protection of user data."
"It is very well integrated with other Microsoft programs, teams, and so on. They work well together."
"It is stable."
"It is a very stable tool...It is a very scalable tool."
"Communication is the most valuable feature of the solution."
"Technical support is good."
"If I were to ask them to work on something, it would be the fidelity of the alerts that occur. They should tell me if it is a real event or not. It is easy for it to identify that something hit it but give me more information. They can build AI into the engine so that I get better output from an alert to tell me if I should really be interested in that or not."
"There is room for improvement in terms of data security."
"We've faced problems backing up our virtual machines."
"The initial setup was complex."
"I think there is room for improvement with the reports. They are a little poor."
"For simpler environments, they have some templates for startups. Possibly for a smaller environment, they need to do more automatic configuration and selections of users who want to do backups. This is mainly for smaller environments. I would like them to have the same system fit for all environments: small and big environments. Currently, we have to do a lot of configuration of the layout, which takes time. This solution is appropriate for enterprise-level enterprise, but I would like it to be easier to use for SMB environments."
"The navigation of it needs improvement in terms of the UX. The product itself, it works as expected. It's all user experience and user interface improvements that could be made and it could be made a little more consumer-friendly."
"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."
"They could improve on the search function, it takes too much time."
"The solution is stable, but it could improve. It's crashing if there is a big mail database. The Zimbra solution is better in this area."
"For new users, it might take them some time to get used to the product."
"Microsoft Exchange's customer support could be faster and more knowledgeable."
"I'd like the archiving process to be faster."
"It is important to have the updated version for scalability."
"I think it could be more scalable."
"If it was the same product, and slightly cheaper, that would be amazing."
