Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most important feature is that everything can be controlled using a single console.""The solution includes the best compatibility metrics for integration and they are managed by Google support.""The product has the best features for scaling up and administering all the solutions from a single platform.""The convenience of backing up and restoring simultaneously is very valuable.""I'm a big fan of the reporting. You can build your own reports; it's very customizable. You can have individual reports going to groups of people or individuals. You can have them go out multiple times a day. It's basically a free-for-all as far as reporting goes. If anybody wants a specific job report every day, you can build it, schedule it, and have it go out and never touched it again. It's pretty nice.""One-Pass (Archive) DataBase backup (Online Backup and Granular level restore), VM backup and restore.""It's very user-friendly. It supports a wide range of workloads. It's quite easy to use, it's very powerful and it's scalable.""In the VM, we have Live Recovery, Live Mount, and Live Sync."

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten. As a cloud tool, the product is highly scalable.""I have seen that Rapid7 InsightIDR provides security to the networks and endpoints in the company.""Rapid7's reporting is more robust than Tenable's.""The product works well. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""The solution is very stable and works very well for what I need it to do.""InsightIDR’s ability to process millions of transactions per day, and to notify me of the most critical ones, is priceless. InsightIDR has the alerts tuned, and has the ability to quickly drill down to determine the threat level.""The UI is very good.""It improved my organization by building a security alerting program."

Cons
"They need to integrate configuration screens or videos (free training courses, webinars, demos) so that engineers with little experience can fully exploit the features that are offered or managed within the license that was acquired, and thus have better quality and completely satisfactory experience.""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.""I would like to see more customizable reports. I have reports going right now, but the daily report, for example, shows something like 40 jobs that ran when there are just a few endpoints on there. I'd like to just know if the endpoint was successfully backed up, not how many times. More customizable reports would be nice to have.""Setup is complex.""They should move the CommServe outside of Windows machines and the database should be distributed among servers. It's still a single point of failure.""There could be improvements to the backup failures.""The solution needs better Office 365 data backup management.""They reply to the support portal weekly, but there are some delays."

More Commvault Cloud Cons →

"The solution needs improvement in threat intelligence. Increasing the depth of intelligence to help users understand more about threats is a possibility. My suggestion is to expand access to other websites or resources.""It takes time for the product's support team to resolve issues, making it an area of concern where improvements are required.""It would be useful to import threat intelligence in YARA format along with known incorrect email addresses.​""Inability to get access to compliance reports within the solution.""Customised alert recipients need to be added to allow better first-line action and quicker response. Configurable honeypots would be a welcome addition.""The interface for doing investigation needs to be enhanced with minor improvements that would make it more useful.""I feel it would greatly benefit from more supported log sources.""The solution's XDR agents cannot compete with the XDR solutions out there yet."

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."

  • "​I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability.​"
  • "The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help.​"
  • "Licensing is straightforward. If, for some reason, you don’t meet the minimum licensing requirements, there is a third-party managed service that can help."
  • "​Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product.​"
  • "The pricing and licensing are competitive."
  • "Licensing is by endpoint and amount of retention time (at least ours is). Default retention was one year, but we are able to push the retention further if needed. There's also a provide-your-own-S3 option for longer retention if you don't want to pay for the additional retention years in your Rapid7 agreement."
  • "It is a reasonably priced solution."
  • "It is on a yearly basis. For our own company, for about 250 users, it was 16,000 euros a year."
