Ankit Gagneja - PeerSpot reviewer

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.

Ensures data protection and supports SAP consistency while reducing costs
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. Even though I am not utilizing all tools and options, it meets my comprehensive requirements and allows backup of emails as well, making it a versatile tool.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The 1-Touch recovery feature is helpful for all customers."
"Single pane of management policy driven backup."
"People are going to be very impressed with that kind of support that they get from Commvault."
"The convenience of backing up and restoring simultaneously is very valuable."
"Commvault is a stable product."
"This product has allowed us to recover data when we've had issues."
"Commvault provides the status of a backup or restore operation."
"This is a very stable product."
"The application backup is excellent, and using Veeam for backing up Kubernetes environments is a valuable tool."
"Dealing with cloud solutions is simple and removes many headaches from troubleshooting and implementing the solution."
"I find Veeam to be a good tool for backing up Office 365 and virtual machine environments."
"I recommend it to other companies due to its reliable solutions, significant cost reductions, and comprehensive functionality."
"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud’s most valuable feature is data backup and replication."
"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud provides significant cost reduction with NETIO Cloud's offering."
 

Cons

"Training."
"The product could be more convenient in terms of working with different solutions and having more integration between the different products in the market."
"The solution requires improvement with its connection and bandwidth."
"The pricing could be more flexible in terms of licensing."
"If I have an issue, it will indeed take more time to receive a response because they have limited resources, but otherwise, Commvault Cloud has reasonable support, although they will not come on-site and it will be remote support."
"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."
"They don't market their products well. They don't do a lot of marketing to enable them to move forward."
"The interface could be improved because it has two different consoles."
"The licensing could be improved, particularly by providing a 'pay-as-you-go' option through Azure, AWS, or GCP portal itself."
"I do not have notes for improvements."
"There could be a feature to take a snapshot for version backup."
"Some of the prerequisites for Veeam are challenging."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"...the battle came down to pricing, as well as some small features, and Commvault was the best in all the criteria."
"The solution is highly-priced."
"On a scale of one to ten, where ten is the highest price, I rate the pricing an eight."
"It is not the cheapest solution. I think the pricing is fair for mid-side customers. It is between all the other options."
"Licensing could be better explained. Sometimes, it's unclear what features are available in different licensing models."
"The solution is licensed based on the number of objects that we're going to back up, and that's a known quantity. As a result, we get predictable costs for our backup requirements."
"Commvault is quite high in terms of pricing and licensing."
"We work with Commvault and a partner on our environment needs according to capacity, licensing, pricing, components, modules, etc. Additional costs depend on your backup needs."
"The solution is affordable."
