We performed a comparison between Commvault Cloud and Rubrik Go based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two SaaS Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Among the best features are the BMR (Bare Metal Recovery), Live Sync, and IntelliSnap, which is used for snapshots of hypervisor storage. It's predefined so you only need to enable it and it works. I haven't seen anything like this in other backup tools like Veritas NetBackup or Dell EMC or TSM. We will use snapshotting for all our machines."
"Integration with Active Directory and the Azure platform make it a complete solution."
"Commvault HyperScale X is also a good choice for regulations that require the backup system to be isolated from the rest of the infrastructure."
"It helped us reduce the number of servers that are required for a stable operation."
"The rate of duplication is great."
"The solution's stability is excellent."
"Commvault is a stable solution for Red Hat Linux."
"Backup and archive with a single window, with a single backup job. You only need to type "c"."
"The solution is easy to install; our team just has to put together the plan, give it to IT and let them handle it. Other solutions are quite complex, but this is much simpler."
"Even though the data is already in the cloud, it's an AWS, so by accessing the on-prem appliance you can still search because it is indexed from that appliance."
"Rubrik Go is very simple to use."
"It has an easy-to-use interface that is not complicated."
"In terms of stability, the product is good."
"We use the solution as a backup for our virtual environment and SQL databases."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use for backing up VMs."
"The standout feature is its ransomware protection capabilities."
"There are two ways to use it and I prefer the web-based one over the app. I wish they were a little bit more matched in what they offer because the features aren't as available in the web-based interface as they are in the app."
"The solution needs better Office 365 data backup management."
"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."
"We do not use Command Center, but we are using CommCell Console. We're navigating and manipulating the entire environment by using CommCell Console, and we are comfortable with it. We didn't find Command Center user-friendly. We found it a bit difficult to use. It decreases the efficiency of the tasks to be performed. It was probably implemented as a centralized application to manage all environments, but it was probably not a good idea. I and my colleagues across the globe are comfortable with using CommCell Console rather than Command Center."
"The retention log feature could be an issue for us and can be improved. The backup schedule can also be better in terms of how you set it up."
"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."
"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."
"It would be nice to have just one email report come in, then we can filter out failures. If everything is backed up, we really don't need to see the report. If it is in a single report. A simpler customised report would be good."
"The tool's pricing needs to be improved."
"I would like to see better integration with applications, such as those from Microsoft, to make backing up from those applications simpler."
"Integration with the client is something that needs to be improved."
"If you were to compare it to, say, EMC, the availability of the documentation, training programs, and end-user education aren't as good. Rubrik could improve this."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"I believe there's room for improvement in terms of support, particularly with Tier 3 support coming from the on-call team."
"Reporting could be improved. For now, it's only exported to CSB files."
"Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster."
