Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The most valuable features of Commvault HyperScale X are all the general functions and the performance."
"It is much more scalable and flexible than everything else in the market."
"We now have the capability to recover a virtual machine without relying on the NFS system, but instead are able to use certain features provided by Commvault."
"The Command Center is provided from the web interface. You can back up the data for everybody, but also you can give everybody the ability to view and restore their data. For example, if a laptop, machine, or environment is owned by X, then X can look in and see the environment and data that he has backed up. He can see everything that he owns and can manage the environment as he wishes. It gives him an excellent view of his environment and infrastructure. Also, if you are a service provider, you can back up data for multiple companies and give everyone an interface for their environment to manage, backup, and restore data. Commvault has done excellent work in this area."
"Security measures, including encryption and threat detection, contribute significantly to data protection, safeguarding against unauthorized access and cyber threats."
"The solution provides us with a single platform to move, manage, and recover our data across on-premise locations. Some of the guys have been using it to move a virtual machine from VMware to the Microsoft solution, Hyper-V. They back it up and then they restore to the different virtual machine provider, and that works great."
"Integration with Active Directory and the Azure platform make it a complete solution."
"We recommend this product for people who are running the Oracle Virtualization Manager."
"The most valuable feature is the snapshot capability."
"The deployment is quite simple. Users are generally happy because of the familiarity they have with the features. The solution offers good transparency for the end-user."
"The most valuable quality of Veeam Cloud Connect is its reliability."
"I like the fact that it gives you the possibility to set the data out of the customer on-premises site and to have an off-site copy in your Cloud Data Center."
"It's a stable solution."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect are its ease of use and the portal is very useful."
"The most valuable features are the fast replication and recovery of data."
"The best part about this solution is that it just works."
"I would like to see some of the code execute a little bit better when I add new licenses and assign licenses to users. I'd like to see that information update a little quicker."
"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."
"Sometimes, we have a performance issue with the backup speed. So, that has to be rectified and improved."
"I would like more communication informing us on what Commvault is doing in the background."
"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."
"Bare-metal restore needs some work. It's not intuitive and seems to have been an afterthought."
"They can improve the VMware recovery and VMware backup. There is an improvement area on the VMware infrastructure. They can make available what they call a VSA proxy. They can have an appliance-type setup to deploy VSA backups and help recover quicker. They can have an appliance ready. Instead of having to have a server dedicated to that and installing software on a server, they can just provide an actual appliance for that."
"The functional integration could be better."
"We were interested in investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in VMware. VMware right now is one of the biggest solutions in the world, in terms of the IT environment. But for Cloud Connect it's not. I think they need the cloud version to reach more customers, to enable the cloud version to be used by more people."
"Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases."
"The flexibility results in more administrative GUI. The GUI needs improvement."
"The solution needs to be more scalable. There should be no reason to set up Veeam Cloud Connect and have 10 servers in order to have a cloud backup. The initial setup could be easier."
"The security of encrypted data could be better."
"We encountered some issues with stability at the beginning."
"The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors. They could work to build something around that concept."
"We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers."
