Plenty of useful feature and reliable
We use Asigra for backups I have found all the features useful in the solution. I have been using Asigra for approximately two months. The solution is stable. The six people in our IT department are using the solution. The initial setup was a medium difficulty level. Some parts were complex…

Hybrid backup strategy has improved recovery orchestration and now supports flexible DR planning
I think improvements could be made in Commvault Cloud. Lately what I have seen is that there are AI capabilities that different data protection organizations are coming up with, which basically revolves around tiering of not frequently accessible data to glacier kind of storage, plus bringing in a high level of compression and deduplication capabilities. All those features I believe are there in other customers and they are bringing in new use cases from the AI perspective which I have not recently seen in Commvault. I have seen that Dell does have such features. We recently pitched a solution to the customers where we talked about data tiering and the other AI use cases, identifying the data by itself and autonomously taking decisions on how to tier the data between the different storage classes that we have. Those kind of capabilities that we have proposed to the customer as far as the partner solutions are concerned. I would like to see AI capabilities in Commvault Cloud. The rest of the features pretty much align with the other enterprise solutions that we have in the market. It is just the AI capability that is being asked by the customers as well as that I see missing with Commvault.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"The solution has been very stable."
"Commvault is an all-in-one product that is very simple and operational for business use."
"Metallic helped me to restore the data within an hour, which is much faster than restoring from Microsoft services."
"The data protection itself is very good compared to other products."
"I like Commvault's immutable backups. It integrates with other solutions in our IT infrastructure very well."
"The most valuable features of Commvault Hyperscale X are the full responsibilities inclined in conversion with high responsibility rates."
"IntelliSnap for snapshot collection is one of the most efficient and easiest ways to back up large amounts of data."
"We recommend this product for people who are running the Oracle Virtualization Manager."
"It's a software-based solution so we just need a license to expand it."
 

Cons

"The management could be a bit better."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"Endpoint backup."
"They should move the CommServe outside of Windows machines and the database should be distributed among servers. It's still a single point of failure."
"There is room for improvement in the Knowledge Base and error reporting. I would like to see best practices in the Knowledge Base, and have the ability to diagnose errors without contacting support."
"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."
"I would like more communication informing us on what Commvault is doing in the background."
"Competitive products have emerged with less cost, making the pricing a challenging factor."
"The initial installation is straightforward and took approximately two days. However, the process could be more simple."
"We get an alarm if a lot of files are deleted, for example. That could look like ransomware, even if it is not."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
"Commvault Backup & Recovery is perhaps the best value for our money that I have seen in a backup product."
"HyperScale X is expensive."
"One of the most interesting aspects is that the licensing model can be modified. We're paying for our licensing by the client, as opposed to the size of the footprint of the backup, which decreased our cost by about 20 percent."
"The pricing has improved. It is simplified compared to the way that it was a few years ago. It is fairly straightforward and pretty easy to articulate to customers, which is handy."
"The solution is bundled with hardware licensing. If I want to increase the hardware, I have to buy exactly the same because it's based on the core hardware license. We cannot tell discount because we have an NDA signed with Commvault because of my academic license. The solution is more expensive than NetBackup and Veeam but cheaper than Rubrik."
"The price could perhaps be lower as well."
"I rate the product’s pricing a five out of ten."
"It is cheaper than Veeam."
