We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud and Google Vault based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two eDiscovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Metallic is user-friendly, cost-effective, and the technical support is impressive."
"Not everyone has agents for everything and Commvault has agents for most products. It's the most complete."
"The most valuable feature is Commvault's coverage. It has wide coverage to back up every data center environment. The product can back up OpenStack, OpenShift, and competitive solutions don't have this feature. Commvault can handle backing up any virtual workload or enterprise application."
"The most important feature is that everything can be controlled using a single console."
"It's a complete software that can protect all the main applications. Perhaps that's the feature I like most. The integration with the NetApp and other apps is also very nice."
"The solution provides us with a single platform to move, manage, and recover our data across on-premise locations. Some of the guys have been using it to move a virtual machine from VMware to the Microsoft solution, Hyper-V. They back it up and then they restore to the different virtual machine provider, and that works great."
"HyperScale X is really user-friendly and has a lot of features. It's also cheaper, faster, and more stable than its competitors."
"The cloud integration is a massive win for us, giving us a single backup service for all of our on-premise and cloud systems."
"Data retention is very valuable to us."
"You can retrieve any type of data; for example, if a user accidentally deletes data, as an admin with access to Google Vault, you can easily restore the deleted data."
"The most valuable feature of Google Vault is its reliability."
"In my opinion, the search functionality is the best feature. With Google Vault, we can quickly search for any email within Gmail accounts. And then we can get further information, such as if you want the full header or want to know any extra details about the emails."
"Google Vault is a solution we can use for the data export of end-users."
"Search feature is valuable for our customers."
"The audit part of the tool is the most useful for me."
"Google Vault acts as a great method for retrieving files from Google Drive and Gmail."
"It is a little more complicated than it really needs to be."
"I would like them not to push Command Center. It is good, but I would like them to enable all the features for the Java console. Some things are not in the Java console, like Office 365 agents. In fact, they are there, but one of the engineers had to show me how to configure it. It's not done the same as in the Command Center."
"The tool must improve the 1-Touch recovery of Oracle and Active Directory."
"The price of Commvault HyperScale X could improve."
"The deployment process should be simplified because it is not something that just anybody can do."
"It takes a lot of technical expertise to implement. Commvault could increase the training it provides to customers and partners."
"The back of virtual machines needs improvement. I know they're working on it. They're always doing new things but I think they still have a little bit more to do."
"I would like to see some of the code execute a little bit better when I add new licenses and assign licenses to users. I'd like to see that information update a little quicker."
"My personal opinion is that Google Vault could improve if they could have a similar version to Microsoft 365 where you can have an eDiscovery manager account. With this, you can separate a regular person from an organization and just transfer the specific files."
"The price of the solution could improve and the search could be easier."
"So, when doing a search, perhaps in some instances when you use terms, the information is not very precise in the sense that I'm not getting what I'm looking for. And in some instances, the information, not all the time, but in some instances, it might not be accurate. For example, when doing a search, if you use too many terms, it might not return any results."
"The knowledge base is not as in-depth as it should be."
"Google Vault lacks speed."
"eDiscovery could be improved with additional information and an easier way to retain it."
"It would be nice if Google would let us download the data in different formats."
"One thing I've noticed is that it splits the data files into multiple parts, like the PFT files. For example, when there is a large data size of any account, the backup process splits it into many files. This can be confusing and not very efficient when trying to manage the backups."
