We performed a comparison between Commvault Distributed Storage [EOL] and VMware vSAN based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Software Defined Storage (SDS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Some customers have chosen this solution for its features, benefits, and user-friendly interface."
"Commvault is a user-friendly tool, so most people are happy to adopt this solution."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to continue our business needs and have higher visibility. It has definitely increased our business productivity levels."
"The feature we have found most valuable is the compatibility of VMware products with VCF and VMware Cloud Foundation."
"The ease of use is great."
"it's easy to scale, it's easy to predict IOP needs, and you can design for low latency using all-flash... Also, for setting up new clusters for VDI quickly, it's nice. You don't have to wait on an order for a storage vendor to ship you a system and help you configure it, you do it all yourself. And the sizing guides are pretty straightforward."
"It uncoupled the idea of proprietary technology and component capabilities. It is basically a proprietary technology for a cost-effective infrastructure."
"The ability to have an HA cluster in the absence of a shared storage device or SAN."
"The performance of VMware vSAN is very good."
"It has a single pane of glass for management and operational control, which is the most valuable feature. The integrated storage is also valuable."
"The solution does not support some cloud SaaS applications and has room for improvement with better integration to the storage array."
"NAS backups and BNP protocol backups could be improved. We require some more advanced features. I would also like some features that would enable us to deploy faster, like an orchestrator or something."
"Some intelligence can be added to the newest version to provide more flexibility between storage tiers."
"The architecture of vSAN is not good. vSAN works with objects, such as disks, and it causes problems with availability."
"It can be very expensive."
"vSAN does not have online dedup. When opening the inline dedupe, the performance will be lower than off inline."
"VMware vSAN could improve by having faster reload time and a single point of failure. Resynchronization of many hardware could be better. If you have an outage of a disc or a full system, the replication time is too slow. This has room for improvement."
"What I would like to see, for the really small customers, is the ability to have two nodes."
"Integration could be better."
"It should be easier to use."
