We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud and VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery as a Service solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The 1-Touch recovery feature is helpful for all customers."
"The solution is very stable and offers a good level of performance."
"The ability to manage everything from a single pane of glass is another major advantage."
"The expanse of the decoys that they have is valuable. They cover everything on the corporate side that you would think of, such as Windows, Linux, and even applications like SAP. They also go into the OT environment and emulate OT devices as well."
"Restoring is very fast. In testing, I did a restore for a single item from a mailbox. Within a minute, I had the message back in my mailbox. So, it didn't take hours or days. Obviously, there will be a limit. If we suddenly go into DR and have to restore five terabytes of emails for people, then it will take a couple of days, which would be acceptable. For general usage, where we have to do the odd restore, we have never had issues. It happens within minutes."
"Cloud integration."
"IntelliSnap for snapshot collection is one of the most efficient and easiest ways to back up large amounts of data."
"The most important feature is that everything can be controlled using a single console."
"The most valuable features are the backup and disaster recovery services."
"Technical support is very proactive and helpful."
"We feel the ability to move virtual machines while they are still running to be the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is easy depending on the environment you are working with."
"Setting up VMs can be done quickly. It is easy to use."
"The stability of the tool could be improved."
"The integration of Metallic could improve. It would be a benefit if Metallic could integrate with multiple applications or platforms."
"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."
"I think there is room for improvement with the reports. They are a little poor."
"The local support could be improved."
"We had some small issues with the reporting, but that was just a matter of fine-tuning the kinds of messages we receive by email. It was a little overwhelming in the initial configuration. So we reviewed our configuration with our partner and customized the reports so that we only get the important reports. I haven't seen any big issues or things that the solution is missing."
"They reply to the support portal weekly, but there are some delays."
"The initial installation is straightforward and took approximately two days. However, the process could be more simple."
"When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient."
"The improvements should be as per customer requirements."
"VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery could improve by enhancing the network bandwidth from the storage."
"It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution."
"The automation should be simplified or improved."
