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.

Central console has simplified multi-region deployments and now supports quick customer insights

Druva Data Security Cloud is used with AWS cloud and is public only, with AWS serving as the backend infrastructure. The customer never receives billing for AWS, as the customer receives billing from Druva only.From my perspective, Druva Data Security Cloud is a mature product that uses AWS backup as a backend solution and is available on AWS Cloud. This product is mature, and we do not need to hesitate about it, as it has wider acceptance in the market. AI-driven analytics in Druva Data Security Cloud help to optimize data security by providing correct suggestions and prioritizing action. Given the amount of data security products available and the sprawl of information and tickets that get raised with various concerns that come up, AI is definitely necessary to drill down.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has the fastest backup and better licensing."

"It's a software-based solution so we just need a license to expand it."

"Commvault is very simple to use and it is automated."

"The data protection itself is very good compared to other products."

"It's very user-friendly. It supports a wide range of workloads. It's quite easy to use, it's very powerful and it's scalable."

"The solution is very stable and offers a good level of performance."

"The recovery features are useful. It is easy to recover data. If something happens, we can easily recover data. We have faced ransomware issues twice, and we recovered because of Commvault."

"Integration with Active Directory and the Azure platform make it a complete solution."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"Over the past five years, I haven't experienced any issues or problems with Druva."

"The centralized management console in this solution and AI-driven analytics are good features."

"From my perspective, Druva Data Security Cloud is a mature product that uses AWS backup as a backend solution and is available on AWS Cloud."

"The most valuable feature of Druva is that it can detect changes in files or laptops and perform incremental backups."

Cons

"There is room for improvement in terms of data security."

"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."

"Commvault is complex even if the product has comprehensive solutions and covers pretty much every technology out there. There's no unified way to manage all of the products on one single console."

"The customer support is not good."

"We've run into some issues when attempting to restore very large numbers of files. Of course, that's more of a design issue."

"The pricing could be more flexible in terms of licensing."

"Setup is complex."

"With respect to the cloud, they need to offer more integrations."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."

"They can improve their product quality for Salesforce as they don't have the capability to run that business without Technobind."

"I would rate Druva Data Security Cloud an eight on a scale from one to ten because there are better solutions available in the market in terms of security that give a better stack."

"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"Metallic is an affordable solution."

"Hands down, Metallic provides us with more predictable costs for our backup requirements. You are getting what you pay for. If they are charging you X amount of dollars at that point, that is what you are going to pay. So far, I have not seen any hidden costs or any kind of gotchas. It is pretty cut-and-dry. They will let you know, "Hey, you are going to use our storage and it will cost you this much. You are going to use your storage, then we are going to charge you this much to backup.""

"The price is a little bit high."

"Everyone else offers the subscription-based model nowadays, while Commvault Complete Data Protection still has the traditional license model, where you must buy a set of licenses. You pay for one hundred licenses even if you only use fifty virtual machines, so the licensing model needs improvement."

"It was not very popular because of its previous cost, but they have been working on the pricing, and now anyone can afford to use Commvault. They changed the modeling criteria for their pricing. Previously, there was only the capacity modeling based on your content capacity. In this case, they would give you a license and you would have to pay it. Now, most of the environment is virtualized so you can have the best CPU, VMs, etc. You buy whatever you need and pay for what you need."

"Commvault Backup & Recovery is perhaps the best value for our money that I have seen in a backup product."

"I looked at this at the beginning of the year and I don't remember what the prices were for all the other services, but I thought that Metallic's was fair. It was also highly rated, which was even more important than cost because I need a reliable, secure, backup method."
