We performed a comparison between Barracuda Intronis Backup and Commvault Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Deduplication Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Whenever you have a crash or your service is not working, you can just live-boot the machine and have your service up and running."
"The superior support from Barracuda in setting up, using, and helping with issues for the product."
"I have found the product's LiveBoot feature to be most valuable."
"The scalability of the product is fine."
"The most valuable features are the deduplication that analyzes data to identify duplicate patterns and granular restore."
"Easy, immediate protection for data that is virtually infinitely scalable."
"They are the best support that we have had so far. When you contact or email them, they are very quick to respond. They always have someone available for us. That's what we want as a customer, we want someone to listen to us."
"Most important is its ease of use. You plug it in, follow the steps, and you have your backup file."
"It integrates redundant storage and preserves jams in a storage area, providing up to 70% compression rate."
"It is a scalable solution."
"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 return points are very valuable."
"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."
"What I found most valuable in Commvault Complete Data Protection is its deduplication technique, mainly because the solution has the highest deduplication ratio, giving you higher storage capacity."
"Commvault provides the status of a backup or restore operation."
"The most valuable feature of Metallic is its flexibility and user-friendly."
"I would like to see the Live Boot feature extended to Hyper-V machines, in addition to VMware machines."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see cloud support and deduplication functionality."
"It would be nice to have some reports generated on the usage, but it is not essential."
"The solution needs fine-grained backup capabilities to service individual users. But this is a minor issue considering all that the product does."
"Its speed can be a bit improved, and of course, its pricing can go a lot cheaper."
"It is not always stable."
"The restore time can be improved. The restore time for large quantities of folders is slow. Sometimes, if I'm doing a full recovery of a server, it takes multiple hours, which probably is natural. It might also be because of our internet speed to the cloud."
"The backup feature could be a bit simpler to utilize. They should make the process of backing up individual files simpler."
"The only problem is that some of what we snap most of is the VMs. We found about 10% of the VMs that we can't snap because they're too interactive. It actually causes the application to crash."
"With respect to the cloud, they need to offer more integrations."
"Its technical support could be better."
"It is a little more complicated than it really needs to be."
"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 initial setup was complex."
"The product's migration process and stability need improvement."
"There is room for improvement in the Knowledge Base and error reporting. I would like to see best practices in the Knowledge Base, and have the ability to diagnose errors without contacting support."
