We performed a comparison between Commvault Complete Data Protection and Veeam Agent for Linux based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"Commvault can actually come in and assist you with aspects of the implementation - and they are quite helpful."
"The solution is easy to use and the duplication is quite good."
"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."
"Scalability, as well as stability, are a couple of important parts of this solution."
"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."
"Commvault's many features can be explored to get more value from more solutions."
"The recovery features are useful. It is easy to recover data. If something happens, we can easily recover data. We have faced ransomware issues twice, and we recovered because of Commvault."
"Commvault helps to ensure broad coverage with the discovery of unprotected workloads. This is important. From the moment that we set it up, we mostly have customers telling us what they need to back up. Then, you can list the machines that are not yet protected. Sometimes, we can see that they are unaware of this, and say, "We didn't know that those servers were not protected yet," or "We did not back them up yet.""
"I like the incremental backups and their failover."
"Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward. The deployment is easy because Veeam is compatible with all our VMware services and VMs. Veeam Backup and Veeam ONE are integrated into vCenter or vSphere site deployments, so we don't need to deploy each server one by one."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to pick up individual files."
"The initial setup and deployment are easy. It's straightforward."
"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."
"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."
"It would be a bit unfair to say that it's complex, due to the fact that it supports so many different workloads, however, if there's anything that is a bit of a shortcoming, then it's the fact that there's a bit of complexity involved when dealing with the product."
"Could be easier to implement."
"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 main area for improvement is that we sometimes experience negative effects from their updates. If they had a larger test area for their updates, that would help."
"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."
"The product could be more convenient in terms of working with different solutions and having more integration between the different products in the market."
"Commvault is a rich system that might scare somebody the first time they see it because it feels so huge."
"The integration needs improvement."
"The price of Veeam Agent for Linux could be reduced."
"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."
"They could be more customer-friendly."
