We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud and Veritas NetBackup Appliance 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."IntelliSnap for snapshot collection is one of the most efficient and easiest ways to back up large amounts of data."
"The email archiving feature is very smooth and better than others."
"The ability to manage everything from a single pane of glass is another major advantage."
"The most valuable features of Commvault Hyperscale X are the full responsibilities inclined in conversion with high responsibility rates."
"They have a strong development team and are market leaders in the space."
"We can use it on-premises and in the cloud."
"It's easy to configure multiple jobs and media agent locations for each server. We do offsite backups for all of our servers, but we also do onsite hourly backups of them. That has benefited us several times when we had an incident and didn't want to roll back a server an entire day."
"The solution’s user interface for managing the on-prem environment is good."
"The tool's most valuable feature is recovery."
"We can add multiple appliances to the product."
"Technical support has been great."
"It is very capable of scaling and very good for heterogeneous environments."
"There are a lot of new features that operate to protect the data from ransomware attacks. They launched the Veritas/Appliances to protect our data. Veritas has been doing its job well."
"The solution is very stable...The solution is very scalable."
"I can confidently say that I have managed more than 30 or 50 appliances over different time periods, and yet I never had a single hardware failure."
"The solution is useful for backups."
"The solution must provide deception files across the network."
"We get an alarm if a lot of files are deleted, for example. That could look like ransomware, even if it is not."
"I would assess the Command Center as a very useful but sometimes difficult tool. It is multipurpose. It has all the features of logging and monitoring, especially for the actual setup. For us, it is easy because we work daily with it, but for customers who only use it once a week, they sometimes have some difficulties. Command Center is not user-friendly for beginners."
"The setup is not that straightforward or easy. Even the documentation is not generic or public like other products. You have to be a partner or you have to have a specific account and download it from the vendor themselves."
"I just wanted to compare the features, which are there in EMC NetWorker, which are not available in Commvault. We have things using Networker."
"Reduce the complexity for better understanding of the reports. There are a lot of variables in which you can get confused while elaborating on reports."
"I would like them to keep working on the new web interface to migrate out of the old interface because the old interface is a bit complex. It was driving customers away because of the complexity. If they migrate everything (100 percent of the features), this would make the product be perfect."
"When you deploy Complete Data Protection for past services, it's more complicated because you cannot directly back up from the previous service host. We have to build a proxy server, like a middleware, to directly access the past database server. It's complex and hard for beginners to figure out."
"The hybrid model is not that efficient if we want to off-site data; it takes a lot of time to upload the data on a regular basis."
"The product must improve its recovery features."
"The monitoring could be a bit better."
"The response from the support team has not always been quick, so sometimes there is a risk."
"The upgrade process of the solution needs to be improved since it is extremely complicated, especially without the benefit of a support person who can guide one through it."
"This solution has to have better integration with the cloud, as well as with other solutions such as Business Intelligence products."
"Sometimes, the user interface doesn't work smoothly."
"They could simplify the process of installing, and provide more space for data during the process."
