They have got cloud boost and things like that, but if you want to directly back up to the cloud, I'm not too sure whether you can do it. For example, you can easily send data from Commvault to AWS, Azure, or a container, but it seems to be not so easy in NetWorker."
"They need more support for image backups."
"Support is definitely an area of concern because of the time it takes to resolve our issues."
