Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable features are the ease of use, the graphical interface, and it's high speed.""There's no impact on the endpoint. It runs in the background and it's something that you install and then forget about.""The most valuable feature of Commvault HyperScale X is the automatic nature of its operation. We don't need to worry about sets of documents. It worked automatically, we don't need to think about it. When you set the solution up in a good way, you don't need to worry.""We recommend this product for people who are running the Oracle Virtualization Manager.""Commvault software is a single platform where you can enable whatever you want to use, like endpoint protection. You can enable those licenses on a single platform screen. This is where I see the value ad. This is a single management tool.""It helped us reduce the number of servers that are required for a stable operation.""Commvault can perform a backup no matter where you are, and it takes a backup every four hours. No matter when you come to the office, it'll take a backup if you're connected to the internet and check the system for online availability.""We use the solution for cloud and data backup."

"The solution is very stable.""The technical support is excellent.""It indexes much faster, and is more reflexive because of the Enscripts.""The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts. That is one powerful feature that I, personally, love to use.""I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc.""Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis.""It speeds up the process, so I can meet my deadlines."

Cons
"The reporting is complicated and should be simplified in an upcoming release.""The product is expensive.""It takes a lot of technical expertise to implement. Commvault could increase the training it provides to customers and partners.""The functional integration could be better.""Getting my guys the right access has a learning curve. Sometimes, it is, "Oh, okay. I think I got it for you." Then, they say, "Oh, nope. I logged in but I can't see this." Then, it is, "Okay, hold on. Give me a second. Let me change that. Okay, it's this one." That learning curve has probably taken a little bit longer than some simpler things. So, Metallic has some granularity, and as a systems administrator, I appreciate that. At the same time, I also realize that I have to learn it.""There are many settings that have to be done on your own. It would benefit from a better interface.""You need quite a lot of human resources to maintain a Commvault environment, to keep it operational. Also, it would be nice to if there were an easier way set up some Commvault components.""The local support could be improved."

More Commvault Cloud Cons →

"In the past, incident response time for tech support was slow.""There were minor UI bugs.""We have come across problems with the end-case. We could not find an email discovery type of module and there was not flexibility with the email.""The reporting is a bit unreliable. It needs to be better.""Ease of use and learning curve need improvement.""I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function.""​Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process.​"

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "If budget allows using the per socket license and not the agent based with per GB counter for Dedup is the way to go."
  • "There is now a subscription based licence option that, depending on your environment, could offer a more efficient method to licence the solution if you are OPEX cost driven rather than CAPEX."
  • "New licensing is easy and affordable."
  • "Licensing could be better explained. Sometimes, it's unclear what features are available in different licensing models."
  • "Compared to other competitors and vendors the pricing is fair."
  • "In my experience, compared to solutions like Veritas and Veeam, while they do have their technical pluses and minuses, Commvault can save you on average forty percent initially, and then twenty to twenty-five percent annually."
  • "The price could perhaps be lower as well."
  • "Our cost is around $20,000 per month. The previous year, it was around $30,000 per month. It now costs less because Commvault changed the licensing type for providers."

  • "​The product is affordable and user-friendly.​"
  • "EnCase is an affordable solution."
  • "We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."
