Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The most valuable feature of Metallic is its flexibility and user-friendly."
"Great archive feature, OnePass, for the file system and Exchange servers."
"Commvault HyperScale X is also a good choice for regulations that require the backup system to be isolated from the rest of the infrastructure."
"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."
"The solution's stability is excellent."
"Commvault has a unique administration platform with more features than its competitors."
"It's very user-friendly. It supports a wide range of workloads. It's quite easy to use, it's very powerful and it's scalable."
"We recommend this product for people who are running the Oracle Virtualization Manager."
"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."
"The technical support is good."
"The most valuable feature is the instant restore option."
"The ease of use for the graphical interface and the ease of installation are the most valuable features of this solution."
"It's most compatible with VMware. It can restore single files instead of having to restore the whole machine, once again leading to savings for the company."
"The Veeam Backup and Replication Suite is very user-friendly."
"The solution is very simple. Management of the platform is so simple that we don't need to have any training to deploy this solution."
"It's simple to use."
"They could work on the implementation of the features."
"I would like to see more customizable reports. I have reports going right now, but the daily report, for example, shows something like 40 jobs that ran when there are just a few endpoints on there. I'd like to just know if the endpoint was successfully backed up, not how many times. More customizable reports would be nice to have."
"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 pricing could be more flexible in terms of licensing."
"Training."
"Not everyone has agents for everything and Commvault has agents for most products. It's the most complete."
"Commvault HyperScale X is more expensive for hybrid environments than traditional solutions."
"Our main pain point is that some of our hardware is old. For example, the SSD disks for our application database are slow. It's hard to avoid a slowdown in our environment because the size of our backups is growing every year. If you're growing and don't upgrade the environment, you will see slower backups and restores. You must enhance the environment if you are growing."
"There isn't much to improve. They just need to follow the trend or the development of other Linux products. Follow in terms of making the product compatible with new versions of Linux. They just need to include as many versions for Linux as possible."
"It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side. For example, their agent for Windows not only can back up the Windows machine, but it can also back up Active Directory for granular restore, SQL servers, Exchange, Oracle, SharePoint, etc. When it comes to Linux, only Oracle databases are supported. There are workarounds, though."
"Technical support could be improved."
"I would like to be able to install Veeam directly to Linux instead of having to go through a Windows server."
"In the next version, I would like to see an increase in the locations online. I have found that other products have good pickup location."
"There is a compatibility issue with HCI."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
"It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network."
