Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Complete Data Protection is convenient because you can manage various types of databases, and it's pretty easy to set it up."
"Not everyone has agents for everything and Commvault has agents for most products. It's the most complete."
"We use the solution for cloud and data backup."
"The solution’s user interface for managing the on-prem environment is good."
"The multi-tenancy is the most valuable feature for us because it's the only software that is fully multi-tenant and that has all the features we need to provide to all our tenants. It provides us with advanced features for MySQL and Oracle, among other platforms"
"Commvault Backup & Recovery's search utility is its most valuable feature."
"The solution also provides me with a complete view of our data. I write scripts to report information from the Command Center daily. I report it in HTML and have the status of the last day for the whole environment."
"Metallic is user-friendly, cost-effective, and the technical support is impressive."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"Druva inSync is very easy to use."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"All the data is well encrypted. In addition, the data is split into pieces so that if an endpoint is attacked or compromised with any kind of ransomware, the compromised machine can be relocated or restored. All the data that was previously backed up can be restored from the cloud. It has a lot of security features. Druva currently offers only the cloud version on AWS. Being a cloud solution, Druva goes by a lot of security compliances and provides a security portfolio. People are very skeptical of the data security in cloud solutions, and Druva has given consideration to that. It has some good geo-location features. If a machine is lost, when the machine is switched on and connected to the internet, that machine can be geo-located and tracked. It also has got the geo-wipeout feature. If someone tries to take out the data from a lost machine, they won't be able to do that. The moment an IT admin comes to know that the machine is no longer with a user, he or she can auto-run the geo-wipeout feature so that the data cannot be read by any third party. Duality replication is a unique thing about this solution. Everybody's data is not backed up if the data is common. Similar data is not backed up from other machines. The data backup also happens very smoothly. The bandwidth choking is very less. When the data is getting backed up, the users do not even get to know. There is no impact even when the users are not using high-speed bandwidth."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"It takes a lot of technical expertise to implement. Commvault could increase the training it provides to customers and partners."
"Commvault HyperScale X could improve by allowing backups of the storage area network (SAN)."
"The stability of the tool could be improved."
"Command Center definitely gives us a complete view of our data. But finding some of the granular, very small items that we sometimes have to find, such as auxiliary copies for tapes, I still find that it's easier to navigate and, sometimes, only possible to find them using the CommCell tool."
"Mostly controls, visibility, cost allocation."
"There is room for improvement in the data center application running on the cloud for the platform."
"You can't change Metallic's retention policies without contacting the Commvault support team."
"There is room for improvement in its user interface and web console, called Command Center. They are improving it every year so if they continue in that direction, I think it will be a very reliable console."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"If I could have an accelerator or something to back up the solution on the cloud, that would be helpful. Also, it would be helpful if the accelerator could give me a buffer of a couple of days for any kind of immediate recovery on an offsite."
"I would like to see security improved in the next release."
"Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
