"It is easy to use and stable. It delivers what has been promised. When it says it can do something, it can actually do it, as opposed to some of its competitors."
"Commvault can perform a backup no matter where you are, and it takes a backup every four hours. No matter when you come to the office, it'll take a backup if you're connected to the internet and check the system for online availability."
"Commvault is a very stable product."
"It helped us reduce the number of servers that are required for a stable operation."
"This product has allowed us to recover data when we've had issues."
"Commvault is very simple to use and it is automated."
"The solution is very stable and offers a good level of performance."
"The diversity on offer is very, very good. Everything is supported. It's great."
"Technical support is good."
"The extensive information provided on tool properties has been very useful, specifically the information on databases"
"It's a good product that can be integrated easily with the Data domain."
"When you reach out to your maximum license availability, or you exceed your license limit, NetWorker never stops doing your backups."
"There are no problems in terms of stability."
"The GUI is user-friendly."
"The software implementation takes about 30 minutes."
"Dell EMC NetWorker is scalable."
"Could be easier to implement."
"I would like to see a more user-friendly GUI."
"Commvault's price is quite high."
"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 initial installation is straightforward and took approximately two days. However, the process could be more simple."
"I would like to have a manager-level dashboard to review the backups. This is not from an administrative perspective where you can see the details of the execution. Rather, it would only show the percentage of completeness for each one."
"Its dashboard could be improved to provide a summarized version of all the jobs instead of having to go through each one of them. We should easily be able to glance at all issues. If I had not gone with the on-premise version, I would have had regular reports with the cloud version. It would be an advantage if they increase the compression rate of the backup. I am keeping it on-prem, so I'll need more disks depending on the policies that I have in the retention period. Its price could also be lower. If a good solution can be cheaper, it is always an advantage."
"Our main pain point is that some of our hardware is old. For example, the SSD disks for our application database are slow. It's hard to avoid a slowdown in our environment because the size of our backups is growing every year. If you're growing and don't upgrade the environment, you will see slower backups and restores. You must enhance the environment if you are growing."
"The user interface of this solution could be improved. It is not user friendly and is difficult to understand for new users. New users struggle to understand the logic."
"When you're working with VMware, you need to use vProxy machines. You have to install the vProxy for every host in the VMware environment."
"It's complex in nature."
"In the next release, I would like to see better pricing and more integration with the other products in Dell EMC."
"The web console could be a lot better."
"The user interface is hard to use, it should be simplified. There are a lot of web-based management interfaces which they should consider."
"I would like to see encryption included in the next release to encrypt the data that we are backing up."
"The user interface has to be improved"
