We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud and Rapid7 InsightIDR based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."With the use of the cloud, the solution is easy to learn."
"Commvault gives us a single platform to manage and recover our data. Since we are a research organization, backup is one of the most critical parts of our IT operations and services. Internally, we run it as a managed service, and there is a single console that makes it easy for management to see the performance."
"What is most valuable to me are the search features, where you can search through large backup data sets and find what you're looking for. Our data sets are so big that we're over the petabyte mark. To find a specific file for a specific user out of 10,000 users is a challenge... If we can glean from them a general description of where it might be, the search feature comes in very handy to actually locate it and restore it for them."
"Commvault integrates well with all types of operating systems and supports heterogeneous environments."
"The solution has the fastest backup and better licensing."
"Commvault is a stable solution for Red Hat Linux."
"Among the best features are the BMR (Bare Metal Recovery), Live Sync, and IntelliSnap, which is used for snapshots of hypervisor storage. It's predefined so you only need to enable it and it works. I haven't seen anything like this in other backup tools like Veritas NetBackup or Dell EMC or TSM. We will use snapshotting for all our machines."
"Scalability, as well as stability, are a couple of important parts of this solution."
"We were able to identify criminals attempting to login from China and put a stop on their IP locations."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten. As a cloud tool, the product is highly scalable."
"I am able to run automated actions based on the output of reports, leaving me extra time to focus on more pressing matters."
"The solution is very stable and works very well for what I need it to do."
"InsightIDR’s ability to process millions of transactions per day, and to notify me of the most critical ones, is priceless. InsightIDR has the alerts tuned, and has the ability to quickly drill down to determine the threat level."
"The product works well. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I like the tool's user analysis feature."
"The web interface is great — very useful and user-friendly."
"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."
"They can improve the security level for Windows. When mapping to the Windows, Commvault can take full control over data volumes so that the attacker can't delete the volume data, but the Windows admin can access the volumes. It would be great to block access at that level."
"The solution requires improvement with its connection and bandwidth."
"Data center backup must be improved."
"Commvault's price is quite high."
"The solution needs better Office 365 data backup management."
"If I were to ask them to work on something, it would be the fidelity of the alerts that occur. They should tell me if it is a real event or not. It is easy for it to identify that something hit it but give me more information. They can build AI into the engine so that I get better output from an alert to tell me if I should really be interested in that or not."
"This solution can be complex and difficult to administer because it supports all of the many platforms, so it would help if they could simplify it."
"Tenable Nessus is easier to deal with. It's more efficient and accurate. InsightIDR is heavier than Tenable in terms of performance and scanning. Rapid7 would be much easier to use if it had a network connector like Tenable. Tenable's connector allows continuous monitoring over the B caps."
"InsightIDR is only available in a cloud version. Some of our customers prefer an on-prem solution because they want to manage the security within their environment."
"The dashboard is an area that could be simplified."
"The solution's XDR agents cannot compete with the XDR solutions out there yet."
"Cloud risk assessment is one area where I think they need a lot of improvement."
"The solution needs improvement in threat intelligence. Increasing the depth of intelligence to help users understand more about threats is a possibility. My suggestion is to expand access to other websites or resources."
"It takes time for the product's support team to resolve issues, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The interface for doing investigation needs to be enhanced with minor improvements that would make it more useful."
