"The most valuable features we have found are the flexibility in the services offered."
"It also saves costs and is quick."
"It is an easy-to-use solution."
"The most valuable features of AWS Backup are point-in-time recovery and support resources."
"The advantage that AWS Backup has over competitors is that it's very simple."
"We can directly back up EC2 instances in AWS without using any third-party applications."
"I rate the tool's stability a nine out of ten."
"There are many valuable features of Commvault HyperScale X giving many possibilities to complete jobs."
"It is a stable solution."
"We can use it on-premises and in the cloud."
"This is a very stable product."
"Commvault has support for backing up operating systems and servers."
"Metallic helped me to restore the data within an hour, which is much faster than restoring from Microsoft services."
"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."
"All workloads can be integrated with Commvault. If we use a new technology, Commvault integrates with it. Commvault is a data management solution with support for building the DR side of things. With Commvault we can rapidly back up and restore any application we add to our environment."
"The notifications on the backup and on the mobile app could be more useful. If they could arrange notes or notifications properly and offer services for managing it in our region, it would be helpful for us."
"If AWS Backup were a hybrid solution that also supported on-premises backups then it would be very helpful, especially if you are doing a migration to the cloud."
"One of the limitations of AWS Backup is that it only does file-based copying."
"It could be less expensive."
"Only the price could be improved."
"There could be a centralized dashboard with a reporting feature notifying us of daily backup status."
"This backup tool does the full backup of the entire snapshot server. I would like to have the option to not do the full server backup."
"To create a plan and for all the configuration, one has to do multiple steps, which could be organized in a much simpler way, making the user experience better."
"The new HTML5-based management portals are very nice, but do not yet have all of the features of the Java-based client."
"It does not have an easy deployment. The deployment is not something that just anybody can go in and deploy."
"Data center backup must be improved."
"There is room for improvement in the Knowledge Base and error reporting. I would like to see best practices in the Knowledge Base, and have the ability to diagnose errors without contacting support."
"They could work on the implementation of the features."
"Its dashboard could be improved to provide a summarized version of all the jobs instead of having to go through each one of them. We should easily be able to glance at all issues. If I had not gone with the on-premise version, I would have had regular reports with the cloud version. It would be an advantage if they increase the compression rate of the backup. I am keeping it on-prem, so I'll need more disks depending on the policies that I have in the retention period. Its price could also be lower. If a good solution can be cheaper, it is always an advantage."
"They can always improve the interface design to make it easier. Sometimes, you need to click two or three times to do something. They should look at what tabs are used most and make them more accessible, to cut the time it takes to get to that information."
"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."
