We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud, Rubrik, and Veeam Backup & Replication based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery.
"In terms of the speed of backup, it operates seamlessly, so I'd rate it as excellent... with my daily use and workload, quite honestly I don't even notice when it backs up."
"It is much more scalable and flexible than everything else in the market."
"Commvault can actually come in and assist you with aspects of the implementation - and they are quite helpful."
"Commvault is a very stable product."
"We have VMware, Hyper-V, Oracle, and Microsoft SQL. We have a lot of different systems, and all of them are supported under one licensing agreement. That's one of the benefits."
"It helped us reduce the number of servers that are required for a stable operation."
"The granularity of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is very good. We've used all of it, recovering data from each of the four systems that we back up with it, and it works very well."
"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."
"In the event of any issues or questions, the support is top-notch. We rarely need to use support, but when they are needed, they are always quick to respond and very knowledgeable."
"It works with VMware and Hyper-V without agent installation."
"What I like the most about Rubrik is its user-friendly interface."
"The most valuable feature of Rubrik for me is its user-friendliness and efficiency."
"In terms of usage, Rubrik has allowed us to retrieve data 80 to 90 percent faster than our previous technology."
"One platform for instant recovery."
"The solution is extremely stable. They've been phenomenal, especially for a young company."
"I don't know if it is the best or the worst but it's very easy to install and very easy to balance. Sometimes that it's a problem because the installer of these data gets extremely scared because it's so easy. The product is easy to install, easy to balance, and easy to work with. Another really good point is the instant recovery."
"The most valuable features are the backup and restoration of our VMs. Additionally, they add features regularly."
"This solution is very flexible and user-friendly — it's very good. It's very good with our virtual and physical infrastructure."
"I like Veeam a lot because it solves problems, is stable, and runs very well."
"The user interface is good and it is very easy to use."
"I have found the backup call feature very good."
"Veeam is highly scalable. In one scenario, we started with 2,000 users and scaled up to 24,000."
"The solution is easy to install and very stable."
"This is very user-friendly."
"The workflow has room for improvement."
"We get an alarm if a lot of files are deleted, for example. That could look like ransomware, even if it is not."
"I would like to see some of the code execute a little bit better when I add new licenses and assign licenses to users. I'd like to see that information update a little quicker."
"When we started using Commvault, we felt that there were some technical issues with managing it, but we are comfortable enough with managing it now. There were many issues, like index corrupting, when we first started, but all those issues were resolved by the Commvault tech team."
"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."
"The speed of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is adequate. Microsoft controls the amount of bandwidth that people have when they're using Azure and the O365 environment... If they could work out something with Microsoft to improve the speed, that would help."
"Command Center definitely gives us a complete view of our data. But finding some of the granular, very small items that we sometimes have to find, such as auxiliary copies for tapes, I still find that it's easier to navigate and, sometimes, only possible to find them using the CommCell tool."
"They need to improve when it comes to large, video file archiving. They're good, but they have not met my expectations as a customer in this area."
"Its reporting can be improved. Sometimes, I need to create reports to know whether something is available or not, how much frontend data is being protected, etc. Rubrik gives a lot of things in the report, which can be confusing. It isn't very easy to get reports. It shows all the backup, index, replication, and everything else in one report. So, I have to export, filter, and then do the calculations."
"Needs integration with video CD (coming in the next release) and a multi-tenant GUI."
"Collecting logs in Rubrik is very difficult compared to other tools."
"Two areas I would like to see improvement in Rubrik are pricing and localization."
"They support Hyper-V and it works with our CloudOut, the cloud DR, but they seem to add features for VMware first and Hyper-V gets added second or sometimes several releases after the VMware feature comes out."
"When errors do occur, it can be a somewhat painful process to get to the bottom of issues."
"The integrated reporting is not really that nicely built. The reporting functionality could definitely be a little bit more customizable from an administration perspective, with an easier to understand interface."
"In terms of what could be improved with Rubrik, we need to improve the backup for remote sites. The competitors are stronger in terms of their remote office back up. Rubrik needs to improve to be stronger for backup. This is the main thing."
"Device backup could be improved."
"The documentation and communication could be better in Veeam Backup Replication."
"Scalability, as well as licensing costs, need to be improved."
"Occasionally, in the course of upgrading one's virtualization platform, the backup can be ruined."
"The web interface could be more visual."
"I would like to see more broad support for other applications such as databases, or other operating systems."
"Veeam Backup & Replication could improve by making it more user-friendly."
"Technical support can be improved."
