"It's very user-friendly. It supports a wide range of workloads. It's quite easy to use, it's very powerful and it's scalable."
"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."
"We use Commvault Command Center for backups and restores and for the creation of new clients. We use it for other functionalities as well. In terms of VMware, I can go directly to the Command Center, enter VMware, and I can search it directly. Command Center is very useful and it can be used for more advanced techniques."
"The most valuable features are the ease of use, the graphical interface, and it's high speed."
"It's very easy to set up the storage across all platforms. This allows us to be dynamic and change on-the-fly."

"Exchange's best feature is single sign-on access using the Microsoft Identity framework."
"The initial installation is straightforward and took approximately two days. However, the process could be more simple."
"The initial setup was complicated."
"There is room for improvement in the data center application running on the cloud for the platform."
"Commvault Complete Data Protection meets market standards, but an area for improvement is its licensing model. It would be good if it could use the subscription-based model rather than the traditional licensing model."
"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."
"I think the one thing that could be improved is the customer experience. The interface should be more user friendly."
"My customers are not satisfied with the tool because there is a little trouble with the throughput of Metallic."
"They could work on the implementation of the features."
"Deployment should become a bit easier, the process is a bit complicated. You have to have done it one or two times before you get it right. The first time you do it, it won't be perfect. There are a lot of complications compared to Gmail For Business, which is a bit easier when it comes to configuration."
"The solution should be easier to deploy."
"They keep making all these changes, and our system was down for four or five days. They finally got it up, but there are still lots of quirks."
"I would like to see Microsoft Exchange improve their documentation."
"Exchange can be a little finicky, sometimes, or flakey. Last week, for example, I had gone into my calendar to check on some briefings that I had established, and then went back into my inbox, and suddenly the view had changed. I had no idea what it was that I had done, and I couldn't figure out how to get that view back. I took a productivity hit as a result of that, trying to fix it, due to the fact that it just wasn't what I wanted. It wasn't what I was used to working with. Two different tech support people had to work with me in order to get the view back to what I wanted just so I could be productive."
"Nothing is perfect, that's why I am giving Microsoft Exchange a nine."
"I think that improvements should be made in creating greater abilities for Microsoft Exchange in terms of Reasearch and Development."
"I would like to see the search capability of the Outlook client improved"
