Our customers use Commvault as a backup solution.
I work as a system integrator. We implement and support Commvault in our customers' environments.
We usually deploy the latest major release.
We can monitor, with normal detection, from the regular backup. We can determine whether it is suspicious if the client suddenly has major changes in their data.
The most valuable features are the integration with the storage center and support for most applications, databases, and security system platforms that exist on the market.
The user interface for Commvault is quite user-friendly. It is easy to manage the Commvault environment using the user interface.
Commvault Command Center is fully supported and has many features for us to manage the environment.
Commvault is able to do the recovery process from their console, so we don't have to actually log into it. Also, Commvault can direct information to another server. The recovery option is a very good feature.
I can collect the target data, then we connect it to Commvault. There is not another system that can connect to our target database or target storage. This is very important for us, because there is the threat of malware right now. This can protect not only the product, but also the backup data from outside threats.
Commvault supports remote office backup. It backs up the local data, then keeps monitoring and managing it.
I would like Commvault to have a feature for cybersecurity threats, e.g. securing the target backup repository. Commvault just started testing and releasing this feature, but it needs to be stabilized.
We have been implementing Commvault for our customers for around three years.
Commvault is very stable.
Commvault is very scalable in terms of the data that Commvault can maintain.
Commvault support is very good and helpful. We receive a lot of help for our problems.
The deployment of Commvault is pretty straightforward. Commvault can do remote installation for the client. The deployment time depends on the customer's or user's permissions.
One of my customers has seen savings when using Commvault compared to other storage solutions. They compared the price of Commvault with performing maintenance on their backup system, and Commvault's price is competitive versus other backup software.
Commvault helps our customers' admins to minimize the time they spend on backup tasks and other projects. Commvault is very good in terms of performance backup. I think support time has been reduced by around 25% to 30%.
Commvault is quite high in terms of pricing and licensing.
I have also worked with IBM Spectrum Protect and Veeam. Overall, Commvault has better support than other backups. Their support is very fast when resolving our problems.
My customers use dedupe applications, so we don't use Commvault's feature to reduce storage costs.
Commvault is very feature-rich. Its licensing is quite easy to configure, though we must pick the right size for the backup environment so the customer can have the best price.
I would rate Commvault as eight out of 10.
