We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud and Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."It is easy to use and stable. It delivers what has been promised. When it says it can do something, it can actually do it, as opposed to some of its competitors."
"The recovery features are useful. It is easy to recover data. If something happens, we can easily recover data. We have faced ransomware issues twice, and we recovered because of Commvault."
"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."
"The product is user-friendly."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Scalability, as well as stability, are a couple of important parts of this solution."
"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."
"It is just about as flexible as you can get; simple. You can put it anywhere you want. You can put it on-prem or in your cloud. I could see where a team that's looking for more of a follow the bouncy ball type of solution might get a little confused. "Oh, no. What do you mean I might have to do it this way or I can't do it that way?" Sometimes, people just want to be told what to do. For an enterprise environment, like we are at NDOT, everything we do is not standard. It is not industry standard; it is not normal. We have all kinds of one-offs. We do need flexibility in the solutions that we get. I will say that Metallic has been extremely flexible in that sense, where we are able to follow the bouncy ball if we wanted to. Obviously, we didn't. We did it our way and Metallic, as a whole solution, provided that to us with no issues."
"The most valuable features are the fast replication and recovery of data."
"I've found flexibility to the most valuable feature. I also like that it's scalable and that the stability is okay."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Cloud Connect is the server backups, such as the Microsoft Windows server. Additionally, the updates provide useful enterprise functionality."
"It's a stable solution."
"The administration and management integrate with multiple solutions, not just with one or two environments, even if they're not VMware products."
"The stability and restore options on the solution are very good."
"The best part about this solution is that it just works."
"The most valuable feature is the snapshot capability."
"This product is overly complex to operate and run."
"They could work on the implementation of the features."
"I would like to see some of the code execute a little bit better when I add new licenses and assign licenses to users. I'd like to see that information update a little quicker."
"Commvault HyperScale X could improve by allowing backups of the storage area network (SAN)."
"The setup was a little bit difficult for a non-IT person like me. My OneDrive is protected by multifactor authentication, and to get the backup to begin behind that multifactor authentication took a little bit of almost customized support, even though I was following the instructions and the videos. That process could have been easier."
"Its competitor, Veeam, includes backup and replication in the same product. I don't know if Commvault has it or not, but they should if they don't."
"Commvault Complete Data Protection would benefit from improving their training resources."
"You can't change Metallic's retention policies without contacting the Commvault support team."
"The dashboard could be more intuitive."
"The security of encrypted data could be better."
"I think Veeam Cloud Connect could be more stable, scalable, and secure. I think better pricing is needed."
"Pricing could be improved and I also think archiving could be improved."
"Doesn't back-up from KVM."
"I would like to see more advanced training courses made available to cover complicated use cases."
"The solution needs to be more scalable. There should be no reason to set up Veeam Cloud Connect and have 10 servers in order to have a cloud backup. The initial setup could be easier."
"We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers."
