We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"They have a strong development team and are market leaders in the space.""The granularity of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is very good. We've used all of it, recovering data from each of the four systems that we back up with it, and it works very well.""We use the solution for cloud and data backup.""The solution includes the best compatibility metrics for integration and they are managed by Google support.""Commvault HyperScale X is also a good choice for regulations that require the backup system to be isolated from the rest of the infrastructure.""The solution’s user interface for managing the on-prem environment is good.""Metallic is user-friendly, cost-effective, and the technical support is impressive.""There's no impact on the endpoint. It runs in the background and it's something that you install and then forget about."

"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.""The solution is already far more advanced than our customers require. It offers advanced scripting and automation pre-testing to support the custom library and custom tasks.""The best part about this solution is that it just works.""Replication without network changes.""One of the most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect is it does not require the use of an extremely fast internet connection for it to work. The backup process is automated which is great.""The most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect are its ease of use and the portal is very useful.""The most valuable feature of Veeam Cloud Connect is the server backups, such as the Microsoft Windows server. Additionally, the updates provide useful enterprise functionality."

Cons
"The workflow has room for improvement.""I would like Commvault to have a feature for cybersecurity threats, e.g. securing the target backup repository. Commvault just started testing and releasing this feature, but it needs to be stabilized.""This product is overly complex to operate and run.""There are many settings that have to be done on your own. It would benefit from a better interface.""The HTML interface is a remarkable improvement. However, there are still some features that are not available in that interface that are available in the Java console, but I'm sure that will come with time.""The most common feedback I get in terms of Commvault is that it can be complex. I always refer my customers back to their own environment. Almost everything that goes into Commvault is a request by a customer. While it can be complex, it can also be very simple. You just need to understand your environment in order to make sure that you really need to turn on that extra feature or thing inside of Commvault. Maybe you don't need those things. It really depends on how simple or complex your environment is, whether you need all of Commvault's features.""We get an alarm if a lot of files are deleted, for example. That could look like ransomware, even if it is not.""When we started using Commvault, we felt that there were some technical issues with managing it, but we are comfortable enough with managing it now. There were many issues, like index corrupting, when we first started, but all those issues were resolved by the Commvault tech team."

More Commvault Cloud Cons →

"Doesn't back-up from KVM.""Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases.""The biggest thing that Cloud Connect needs is native deduplication.""The dashboard could be more intuitive.""I would like to see more advanced training courses made available to cover complicated use cases.""If a customer has a low budget, Veeam may be too expensive.""Pricing could be improved and I also think archiving could be improved.""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."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "If budget allows using the per socket license and not the agent based with per GB counter for Dedup is the way to go."
  • "There is now a subscription based licence option that, depending on your environment, could offer a more efficient method to licence the solution if you are OPEX cost driven rather than CAPEX."
  • "New licensing is easy and affordable."
  • "Licensing could be better explained. Sometimes, it's unclear what features are available in different licensing models."
  • "Compared to other competitors and vendors the pricing is fair."
  • "In my experience, compared to solutions like Veritas and Veeam, while they do have their technical pluses and minuses, Commvault can save you on average forty percent initially, and then twenty to twenty-five percent annually."
  • "The price could perhaps be lower as well."
  • "Our cost is around $20,000 per month. The previous year, it was around $30,000 per month. It now costs less because Commvault changed the licensing type for providers."
  • More Commvault Cloud Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "I think that this is one of the most cost-effective solutions."
  • "The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."
  • "We are looking into how we can extend the license of this product."
  • "The price of the solution could be cheaper. There are monthly or yearly subscription options available. The annual subscription tends to be cheaper."
  • "It's not the cheapest solution on the market but it's reliable, so we find it cost-effective."
  • "The licensing is MSP-based. It is connected to the portal, and you can deploy it to your end users as well."
  • "The price of the solution is reasonable because of our good standing with the vendor."
  • "The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."
