Pros
"It never fails. Sometimes we miss a backup, but there's always a reason for it, and it's not the fault of Commvault.

Cons
"My customers are not satisfied with the tool because there is a little trouble with the throughput of Metallic.""It does not have an easy deployment. The deployment is not something that just anybody can go in and deploy.""Additional SaaS application support would be good... we have SaaS applications that may not be big enough for Commvault to support yet. Box.com is one we've asked about for years, and it's just not on the radar, as far as I know.""The new HTML5-based management portals are very nice, but do not yet have all of the features of the Java-based client.""You can't change Metallic's retention policies without contacting the Commvault support team.""I need documentation for Azure backups. One expectation that I have is regarding PDF documentation. When I was trying to browse the documentation, I could not locate that.""Commvault is a rich system that might scare somebody the first time they see it because it feels so huge.""Training."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "If budget allows using the per socket license and not the agent based with per GB counter for Dedup is the way to go."
  • "There is now a subscription based licence option that, depending on your environment, could offer a more efficient method to licence the solution if you are OPEX cost driven rather than CAPEX."
  • "New licensing is easy and affordable."
  • "Licensing could be better explained. Sometimes, it's unclear what features are available in different licensing models."
  • "Compared to other competitors and vendors the pricing is fair."
  • "In my experience, compared to solutions like Veritas and Veeam, while they do have their technical pluses and minuses, Commvault can save you on average forty percent initially, and then twenty to twenty-five percent annually."
  • "The price could perhaps be lower as well."
  • "Our cost is around $20,000 per month. The previous year, it was around $30,000 per month. It now costs less because Commvault changed the licensing type for providers."

  • "My company has to make yearly payments towards the solution's maintenance and support."
