Hybrid backup strategy has improved recovery orchestration and now supports flexible DR planning

I think improvements could be made in Commvault Cloud. Lately what I have seen is that there are AI capabilities that different data protection organizations are coming up with, which basically revolves around tiering of not frequently accessible data to glacier kind of storage, plus bringing in a high level of compression and deduplication capabilities. All those features I believe are there in other customers and they are bringing in new use cases from the AI perspective which I have not recently seen in Commvault. I have seen that Dell does have such features. We recently pitched a solution to the customers where we talked about data tiering and the other AI use cases, identifying the data by itself and autonomously taking decisions on how to tier the data between the different storage classes that we have. Those kind of capabilities that we have proposed to the customer as far as the partner solutions are concerned. I would like to see AI capabilities in Commvault Cloud. The rest of the features pretty much align with the other enterprise solutions that we have in the market. It is just the AI capability that is being asked by the customers as well as that I see missing with Commvault.

Veeam Backup for Google Cloud provides significant cost reduction with NETIO Cloud's offering. It serves as a reliable solution for backup and reporting capabilities about the health of the backups.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Commvault integrates well with all types of operating systems and supports heterogeneous environments."

"Restoring is very fast. In testing, I did a restore for a single item from a mailbox. Within a minute, I had the message back in my mailbox. So, it didn't take hours or days. Obviously, there will be a limit. If we suddenly go into DR and have to restore five terabytes of emails for people, then it will take a couple of days, which would be acceptable. For general usage, where we have to do the odd restore, we have never had issues. It happens within minutes."

"The granularity of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is very good. We've used all of it, recovering data from each of the four systems that we back up with it, and it works very well."

"Commvault is a stable solution for Red Hat Linux."

"Commvault's Command Center is one of the best solutions out there. You can rely on Commvault solutions for the most complex and most demanding environments."

"It's great for getting data back."

"We are using a KVM system in our cloud, and this solution works very well with it."

"The ability to manage everything from a single pane of glass is another major advantage."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud provides significant cost reduction with NETIO Cloud's offering."

"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud’s most valuable feature is data backup and replication."

"I recommend it to other companies due to its reliable solutions, significant cost reductions, and comprehensive functionality."

"The application backup is excellent, and using Veeam for backing up Kubernetes environments is a valuable tool."

"I find Veeam to be a good tool for backing up Office 365 and virtual machine environments."

"Dealing with cloud solutions is simple and removes many headaches from troubleshooting and implementing the solution."

Cons

"There is room for improvement in terms of data security."

"This is not a very high standard product."

"What I need is deeper CLI documentation for both QCommand and SQL queries."

"The solution is expensive in comparison to similar solutions."

"The solution requires constant attention. Commvault is very complex. We are constantly making adjustments and working through hotfixes, updates, and issues."

"Command Center definitely gives us a complete view of our data. But finding some of the granular, very small items that we sometimes have to find, such as auxiliary copies for tapes, I still find that it's easier to navigate and, sometimes, only possible to find them using the CommCell tool."

"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."

"There is room for improvement in its user interface and web console, called Command Center. They are improving it every year so if they continue in that direction, I think it will be a very reliable console."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"The licensing could be improved, particularly by providing a 'pay-as-you-go' option through Azure, AWS, or GCP portal itself."

"Some of the prerequisites for Veeam are challenging."

"The licensing could be improved, particularly by providing a 'pay-as-you-go' option through Azure, AWS, or GCP portal itself."

"There could be a feature to take a snapshot for version backup."

"I do not have notes for improvements."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is fairly in line with the other products we've compared it with recently. We do spend more on it than we did in our Backup Exec days, but it's fairly competitive with some of the other best-in-class data protection platforms."

"The pricing is far better than we had in the past. The license for Dell EMC was not too expensive, but the storage, given that Dell EMC is based on data domains, was pretty expensive."

"I would rate the price of Commvault Cloud seven out of ten with ten being the cheapest."

"The product is cheap."

"Its cost is reasonable, but anybody else can do better benchmarking."

"The product is very competitive for pricing in some countries because it is possible to set up Commvault hardware with other vendors using its certification."

"In India, this is a very expensive product."

"Using a subscription-based license has been advantageous."
