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 Asigra product on the whole is a fantastic solution and I would highly recommend this as it delivers everything our business and our subsequent customers required."
"Simplicity, very easy to restore user data, means that we don't have to request off site tapes to be delivered to the office, can easily access the cloud data and restore most data within minutes."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"Asigra's agent-less capabilities make it a very convenient solution to implement."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"The solution's interface is easy to use. For manageability, it doesn't matter where the resource is coming from or going to. That's the great power of the Control Panel: It's easy to use and does not matter if you manage on-prem or cloud resources."
"Its compression and deduplication allow us to store more backups and save storage space. The reporting is great; we are able to obtain critical business reports and infrastructure/usage information very easily."
"Real-time synchronization is a good feature."
"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."
"One of the most valuable features is the encryption which helps save you from ransomware. Because the data is already encrypted, it cannot be encrypted again."
"The return points are very valuable."
"After deploying the Commvault solution, we are saving four to five hours a week."
"In summary, this is a unified product that is simple to use and a good backup solution."
 

Cons

"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"I wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."
"The management could be a bit better."
"Technical Support: 5/10, Due to different timezones it would always be difficult to get hold of a tech."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"The solution requires improvement with its connection and bandwidth."
"Sometimes the web page doesn't work. From time to time, Commvault will suddenly stop taking backups for some intervals."
"But if something needs to be escalated to development, it's really hard to predict when the issue will be resolved, even having BCS."
"The product is expensive."
"Mostly controls, visibility, cost allocation."
"Commvault likes to be ahead of the game when it comes to merging with other platforms, but sometimes it's before they have the solution truly baked in."
"The speed of the Office 365 Backup & Recovery feature is adequate. Microsoft controls the amount of bandwidth that people have when they're using Azure and the O365 environment... If they could work out something with Microsoft to improve the speed, that would help."
"I would like to see some of the code execute a little bit better when I add new licenses and assign licenses to users."
 

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."
"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."
"Commvault is quite high in terms of pricing and licensing."
"Commvault Backup & Recovery is perhaps the best value for our money that I have seen in a backup product."
"The price should be reduced because it is too expensive for our customers."
"The solution is expensive. The subscription is based on a monthly basis. There are additional costs that vary depending on the size of the backup."
"It is cheaper than Veeam."
"The product is cheap."
"The price could perhaps be lower as well."
