Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."We have multiple workloads, including SQL, Oracle, SAP HANA, especially Sybase, as well as file systems, VMs, and Exchange mailboxes. Commvault provides very good support for them."
"It's very stable."
"With the use of the cloud, the solution is easy to learn."
"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 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's very easy to set up the storage across all platforms. This allows us to be dynamic and change on-the-fly."
"The compression and deduplication are great for optimizing bandwidth and speed. I don't have to worry about it or think about it, and, because it's a SaaS solution, I don't have to worry about the storage size."
"Commvault's Command Center is one of the best solutions out there. You can rely on Commvault solutions for the most complex and most demanding environments."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"From a centralized system, I can manage the interface, the backup policies, and the status of the database."
"It's easy to backup data, manage. A"
"We also really benefit from the GUI capabilities."
"The most valuable features for us are the ease of use, the reliability, and the exceptional deduplication that we get across that data that we store on those devices."
"I think StoreOnce's deduplication technology is crucial for cost efficiency and faster recovery, especially for backup and data protection purposes."
"The valuable feature is the ability to work with the Veeam software to reduce the backup windows."
"Catalyst backup is used to back up Oracle databases, and provides very good throughput during backups."
"The navigation of it needs improvement in terms of the UX. The product itself, it works as expected. It's all user experience and user interface improvements that could be made and it could be made a little more consumer-friendly."
"Commvault could make the product more cost-effective on the public cloud side. We are using this solution to back up whatever is still on-prem. We are not using it to back up what is on the public cloud because we have a native backup solution for that, which is provided by the vendor. As our footprint gets bigger, we will continue to evaluate this, but the last time that we did a cost analysis, the cost was not comparable to the solution that public clouds are offering."
"It is a little more complicated than it really needs to be."
"The most common feedback I get in terms of Commvault is that it can be complex. I always refer my customers back to their own environment. Almost everything that goes into Commvault is a request by a customer. While it can be complex, it can also be very simple. You just need to understand your environment in order to make sure that you really need to turn on that extra feature or thing inside of Commvault. Maybe you don't need those things. It really depends on how simple or complex your environment is, whether you need all of Commvault's features."
"The price of Commvault HyperScale X could improve."
"In an upcoming release, the reports could be better."
"The solution needs better Office 365 data backup management."
"When you deploy Complete Data Protection for past services, it's more complicated because you cannot directly back up from the previous service host. We have to build a proxy server, like a middleware, to directly access the past database server. It's complex and hard for beginners to figure out."
"HPE StoreOnce needs to provide a SaaS solution by offering high-density disks."
"HPE StoreOnce should come with a detailed installation guide."
"The repository should have an extension to connect to the cloud and deposit the backups."
"Cloud integration needs to be simplified."
"The product's price could be better."
"improvement? HPE StoreOnce has a limitation with respect to controllers. Other tools offer more than one controller. I feel that the high availability of the view controller should be redundant. The tool’s control and UI part should be improved and made more advanced. The feature that helps with the manual movement of tapes should also be improved."
"The latency is a bit high."
"The user interface of HPE StoreOnce is an area of concern where improvements are required."
