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.
"It's very easy to set up the storage across all platforms. This allows us to be dynamic and change on-the-fly."
"The solution's interface is easy to use. For manageability, it doesn't matter where the resource is coming from or going to. That's the great power of the Control Panel: It's easy to use and does not matter if you manage on-prem or cloud resources."
"The recovery features are useful. It is easy to recover data. If something happens, we can easily recover data. We have faced ransomware issues twice, and we recovered because of Commvault."
"We switched to Commvault because we were looking to centralize management. This reduced IT administrator time as well as providing stability and reliability for data backups in a single console."
"The product is a reliable solution."
"The most valuable feature is the deduplication ratio. It saves most of our space and reduces the network traffic."
"The solution includes the best compatibility metrics for integration and they are managed by Google support."
"It's an enterprise product. It's a stable product. We have good support. Almost all databases are in the scope."
"They have a great PowerShell module and easy mediums to speak to the people who create and enhance them."
"The ease of use and innovation are the features that stand out for us."
"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 main benefit is that we are secured in terms of workloads. We know that if we need to restore any VMs, or even any files inside a VM, that we will succeed 100 percent. This means that we don't need to spend much time administering the backup environment because we know it is self-healing and efficient. So, we are spending that time on something else, which is always a plus."
"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."
"We have a great success rate for backups with Rubrik and because of the ease of automating tasks, we also run periodical restores to check the quality of the backups."
"The web-based approach is the most valuable feature."
"Adaptative backup and SLAs simply allow you to tell a machine to backup without taking care of the backup window."
"The most valuable features are the backup and restoration of our VMs. Additionally, they add features regularly."
"One of the most valuable features of Veeam is that the restoration is easy and reliable."
"The solution does a good job with VM backups."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"The ntegration of physical agents with our cloud connect service is positive."
"Before Veeam, we had backup infrastructure sprawl. Veeam was able to reduce our overall backup windows while reducing our dedicated backup infrastructure."
"The backups we have been receiving from Veeam Backup Replication on-premise have been good."
"The solution is quite stable."
"I need documentation for Azure backups. One expectation that I have is regarding PDF documentation. When I was trying to browse the documentation, I could not locate that."
"I would like more communication informing us on what Commvault is doing in the background."
"In an upcoming release, the reports could be better."
"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."
"The initial setup was complicated."
"My customers are not satisfied with the tool because there is a little trouble with the throughput of Metallic."
"The deployment process should be simplified because it is not something that just anybody can do."
"The local support could be improved."
"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."
"Pricing is something that needs to be considered for improvement."
"Needs integration with video CD (coming in the next release) and a multi-tenant GUI."
"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."
"It is a lot more expensive than other solutions, but you get what you pay for."
"The reporting, in particular the customization of reports, needs to be improved."
"The deployment and configuration of the backup service is something that could be streamlined a little bit, particularly when you're trying to do a SQL workload. You have to install a backup service on the server. You only have to do it once and then you're done, but you have to do that on every server that you want to protect."
"The recovery of Oracle databases is too complicated. It is not something that helps the DBA, the Database Administrator, but it should be done by the backup person like many other solutions. Everything is ready for the DBA to recover the database. It is a way of doing things, but I don't think you should give the backup people the ability to do it."
"Although the solution offers documentation, it has it only in English, which doesn't help us much in Belarus."
"Its native capability for talking to the public cloud needs improvement. Connecting to a public cloud is a little bit more of a challenge when it comes to Veeam than it is with Rubrik or Commvault. There are still some hoops that you got to jump through in order to send Veeam backups out to public cloud repositories. It is not as simple as it is with other products."
"The automation could be better."
"The solution needs more detailed reporting."
"If a single file is corrupt then the restoration of the entire backup will fail."
"Pricing can be improved."
"Its licensing needs to be improved. Its licensing has become complex since last December. They have changed the way the product is licensed, and there is a lot of confusion. Sometimes, when a new version comes, it seems that it has not been tested enough because I usually find some bugs in it. It could also have more integration with other virtualization products, such as desktop virtualization products and open-source virtualization products."
"I would like to see more broad support for other applications such as databases, or other operating systems."
