We performed a comparison between Arcserve UDP and Commvault Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The interface is very refined, works fine, and is very intuitive most of the time. Scalability is nice. The multi-tenancy feature is very welcome. The integration with Linux works fine too."
"Instant recovery is the most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP."
"Arcserve UDP has a good configuration and user interface. It makes the job of an administrator easy."
"The ease of use is the best feature of the product."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"We are satisfied with Arcserve UDP. The most important feature that we use and why we choose this product is the RHA feature."
"One of the things that I do like about it is that it has a very good deduplication feature."
"The product provides instant and virtual standbys."
"The product alerts the security team about threats."
"It's very easy to set up the storage across all platforms. This allows us to be dynamic and change on-the-fly."
"Restoring is very fast. In testing, I did a restore for a single item from a mailbox. Within a minute, I had the message back in my mailbox. So, it didn't take hours or days. Obviously, there will be a limit. If we suddenly go into DR and have to restore five terabytes of emails for people, then it will take a couple of days, which would be acceptable. For general usage, where we have to do the odd restore, we have never had issues. It happens within minutes."
"It's great for getting data back."
"We are using a KVM system in our cloud, and this solution works very well with it."
"All the management is centralized from that CommServe server. You can manage all the clients and all the infrastructure using one interface and one server... Using the Commvault interface, you can customize and generate multiple reports to easily see what is protected and what is not protected in the environment."
"Commvault's many features can be explored to get more value from more solutions."
"Commvault software is a single platform where you can enable whatever you want to use, like endpoint protection. You can enable those licenses on a single platform screen. This is where I see the value ad. This is a single management tool."
"The speed of restores should be improved. We have found the speed of large restores rather slow."
"I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve."
"We cannot restore each user's mailbox. Each user's mailbox should be independently restorable. Also, this solution is very slow. If you select all of the servers, it runs for a long time... It needs to be faster. Finally, If anything happens to one server we should be able to switch to another server."
"Arcserve UDP is in the middle range of complexity. The interface can be developed a little bit more to be user-friendly."
"We have to use a Microsoft hypervisor for installation which is expensive."
"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."
"The support could be more knowledgeable and faster."
"The tool doesn't provide cloud integration in India."
"Commvault is complex even if the product has comprehensive solutions and covers pretty much every technology out there. There's no unified way to manage all of the products on one single console."
"Data center backup must be improved."
"The new HTML5-based management portals are very nice, but do not yet have all of the features of the Java-based client."
"The speed of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is adequate. Microsoft controls the amount of bandwidth that people have when they're using Azure and the O365 environment... If they could work out something with Microsoft to improve the speed, that would help."
"There could be improvements to the backup failures."
"The tool should revise its licensing."
"Its technical support could be better."
"Our customers complain that this is a difficult product to manage."
