Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Commvault integrates well with all types of operating systems and supports heterogeneous environments.""One-Pass (Archive) DataBase backup (Online Backup and Granular level restore), VM backup and restore.""The multi-tenancy is the most valuable feature for us because it's the only software that is fully multi-tenant and that has all the features we need to provide to all our tenants. It provides us with advanced features for MySQL and Oracle, among other platforms""Commvault provides the status of a backup or restore operation.""I like the product because of its simplicity and the fact that it provides one single interface for managing everything, including storage, data, and policies.""The product has the best features for scaling up and administering all the solutions from a single platform.""The VM backups and the recovery from cloud infrastructure are valuable.""It is a stable solution."

More IBM StoredIQ Pros →

"Caplets are a very good technical feature.""kCura Relativity is easy to use, and it is reliable.""There are a lot of ways to QC your work and save your searches, and we had really good case support from the Relativity team.""I like Relativity's blackout feature, as well as the Case Dynamics function.""The ease of navigation from dock to dock, and that kind of usability, is quite helpful."

Cons
"The initial setup is rather complex, especially when switching versions.""The deployment process should be simplified because it is not something that just anybody can do.""The solution must provide deception files across the network.""They reply to the support portal weekly, but there are some delays.""The product does not provide an option to save a copy of data on-premises.""I would assess the Command Center as a very useful but sometimes difficult tool. It is multipurpose. It has all the features of logging and monitoring, especially for the actual setup. For us, it is easy because we work daily with it, but for customers who only use it once a week, they sometimes have some difficulties. Command Center is not user-friendly for beginners.""Commvault Complete Data Protection would benefit from improving their training resources.""Commvault is complex even if the product has comprehensive solutions and covers pretty much every technology out there. There's no unified way to manage all of the products on one single console."

More Commvault Cloud Cons →

"The product was born and designed to be used inside the IT department, but it would be improved by allowing end-users to search for info related to specific needs."

More IBM StoredIQ Cons →

"I would definitely not recommended it unless you have someone who has had experience with it and knows how to work the program.""They require more built-in support for some third-party applications.""The price per user could be improved. We'd like for it to be more affordable.""There are a lot of bugs on the development side.""What I dislike about Relativity is that we have to go through the host in order to do productions and loads. It is not a do-it-yourself tool."

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."
