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.

Backup has protected our organization-wide email data and supports fast malicious deletion recovery

Some of the best features that Druva Data Security Cloud offers are endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery. Out of endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery, I find the infinitely scalable feature to be the most valuable in my day-to-day work, as it does not have any maintenance windows, which is different in terms of data protection. When it comes to features, I appreciate that Druva Data Security Cloud boasts less complexity found in solutions that are not built for the cloud while remaining secure, scalable, and always available, without requiring a maintenance window. Druva maintains the data protection solution, not the customer, and the platform is always up to date with the latest features, which makes it very scalable, as new capacity can be added to subscription on the fly without changes to the backup setting and without needing to purchase and install new appliances or software. The impact of Druva Data Security Cloud on my organization is significant, as it ensures users' data is backed up with snapshots and is very secure on the cloud. I benefit from prompt and clear assistance from Druva support, and the ease of access into the web portal provides a view into a snapshot without having to restore it first. Specific outcomes I have seen with Druva Data Security Cloud include peace of mind knowing our users' Office 365 data is backed up and very secure, along with improved security, additional protection against accidental deletion of mailbox items, and a means for remedial action after a malicious incident that deletes or encrypts users' data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Metallic is its flexibility and user-friendly."

"The expanse of the decoys that they have is valuable. They cover everything on the corporate side that you would think of, such as Windows, Linux, and even applications like SAP. They also go into the OT environment and emulate OT devices as well."

"This product has allowed us to recover data when we've had issues."

"One-Pass (Archive) DataBase backup (Online Backup and Granular level restore), VM backup and restore."

"Commvault provides the status of a backup or restore operation."

"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."

"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."

"All the management is centralized from that CommServe server. You can manage all the clients and all the infrastructure using one interface and one server... Using the Commvault interface, you can customize and generate multiple reports to easily see what is protected and what is not protected in the environment."

More Commvault Cloud pros

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

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

"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."

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

"Druva Data Security Cloud is a great platform that helps to simplify backup management across Microsoft 365, endpoints, and AWS, with very easy deployment that enhances compliance and legal hold, enables end-users to help themselves, reduces administrative workload, and saves time."

Cons

"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."

"There are two ways to use it and I prefer the web-based one over the app. I wish they were a little bit more matched in what they offer because the features aren't as available in the web-based interface as they are in the app."

"Commvault could benefit from increased automation to streamline processes and enhance predictability."

"My customers are not satisfied with the tool because there is a little trouble with the throughput of Metallic."

"Commvault should keep and continue to develop the Java GUI."

"I would assess the Command Center as a very useful but sometimes difficult tool. It is multipurpose. It has all the features of logging and monitoring, especially for the actual setup. For us, it is easy because we work daily with it, but for customers who only use it once a week, they sometimes have some difficulties. Command Center is not user-friendly for beginners."

"The initial setup was complicated."

"The deployment process should be simplified because it is not something that just anybody can do."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"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 believe Druva Data Security Cloud could be improved as the user interface could be a little more clear, the SSO setup was a little confusing, and the ticket creation procedure could be simpler."

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

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Commvault's license fee is per server-based."

"The complete license gives us options for all the features. Commvault does not license based on storage or the management components. It can integrate with any storage vendor. That means that when we are out of storage and need more, we can integrate without additional licensing. In my opinion, Commvault needs to reduce the licensing cost by 20 to 40 percent to make it cost-efficient."

"Metallic is an affordable solution."

"HyperScale X is expensive."

"On a scale of one to ten, where ten is the highest price, I rate the pricing an eight."

"We work with Commvault and a partner on our environment needs according to capacity, licensing, pricing, components, modules, etc. Additional costs depend on your backup needs."

"Our yearly cost is around €20,000... The cost is based on the number of users and the amount of data. They sell it per terabyte."

"The license is paid on an annual basis and the price is reasonable."
