Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Metallic is user-friendly, cost-effective, and the technical support is impressive.""Great archive feature, OnePass, for the file system and Exchange servers.""Commvault HyperScale X is also a good choice for regulations that require the backup system to be isolated from the rest of the infrastructure.""IntelliSnap and file system backups are valuable features.""The product is a reliable solution.""Scalability, as well as stability, are a couple of important parts of this solution.""It runs all the tests and emails us the reports. We take daily, weekly, and monthly snapshots, and I integrate the storage snapshot scripts with the Commvault workflow. The Commvault workflow runs all the scripts and sends us the reports. It also features cloud-side reports and workflows. Commvault has many tools for backing up, restoring, and archiving things, but we use another service for our archives.""Well documented SQL views and customizable reports, together with scripts and workflows provides ability to automate processes and ensure proper controls are in place."

"The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it.""I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope.""It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field.""The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature.""he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources.""Veritas is loaded with features because the appliance is ready to integrate with the cloud in cases where the customers have a hybrid or cloud environment.""The solution's hardware appliance is very scalable and very useful.""What I like most about Veritas SaaS Backup is that it is easy to work on."

Cons
"We've run into some issues when attempting to restore very large numbers of files. Of course, that's more of a design issue.""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.""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.""They reply to the support portal weekly, but there are some delays.""The only problem is that some of what we snap most of is the VMs. We found about 10% of the VMs that we can't snap because they're too interactive. It actually causes the application to crash.""Support could improve and the initial configuration would be easier with assistance from a professional engineer.""The retention log feature could be an issue for us and can be improved. The backup schedule can also be better in terms of how you set it up.""This is not a very high standard product."

"The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with.""Technical support can be improved.""The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching.""The usability of the solution isn't the best.""In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines.""When you finish a project, the client should have the opportunity to browse the files rather than simply ending the contract. Also, it's not possible to recover earlier versions. It should be possible to have a database for recovering files after you finish a contract. There's no solution for this from Veritas.""The technical team wasn't very helpful.""The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."

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."
  • More Commvault Cloud Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The program is quite expensive."
  • "SaaS Backup isn't the most expensive solution."
  • "This solution is not cheap and not expensive but priced in the mid-range."
  • "I would rate this solution's pricing as five out of five."
