Cloud Solution Architect at Tata Consultancy

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.

Provides solid compatibility and integration with multiple solutions while having room for improvement in marketing and promotions

I must clarify that I can only speak to pricing aspects, not technical features or functionality. I am primarily involved in the commercial and management side. I cannot make judgments about backup solutions including Veritas eDiscovery Platform, Commvault, Rubrik, or Veeam. I can only discuss list prices, not discounted prices. I have not received full promotional or marketing information about the product. My review rating for this solution is 8 out of 10.

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 is sharing data sets like they're in a private cloud. We call it our "private cloud" because we can share anything that is inside our backup set with our colleagues or with other people, and yet, everything is still in Belgrade, in Serbia. It's not somewhere else on cloud servers. Everything is in our environment."

"The most valuable features of Commvault HyperScale X are all the general functions and the performance."

"The most valuable features of Commvault Hyperscale X are the full responsibilities inclined in conversion with high responsibility rates."

"Commvault integrates well with all types of operating systems and supports heterogeneous environments."

"The fact that the solution is a single platform has enabled our company to accelerate growth."

"The multi-tenancy is the most valuable feature for us because it's the only software that is fully multi-tenant and that has all the features we need to provide to all our tenants. It provides us with advanced features for MySQL and Oracle, among other platforms"

"The solution’s user interface for managing the on-prem environment is good."

"The initial setup is straightforward."

More Commvault Cloud pros

"The compatibility with other solutions is a key feature; the solution can be configured and integrated with multiple solutions seamlessly."

Cons

"Getting my guys the right access has a learning curve. Sometimes, it is, "Oh, okay. I think I got it for you." Then, they say, "Oh, nope. I logged in but I can't see this." Then, it is, "Okay, hold on. Give me a second. Let me change that. Okay, it's this one." That learning curve has probably taken a little bit longer than some simpler things. So, Metallic has some granularity, and as a systems administrator, I appreciate that. At the same time, I also realize that I have to learn it."

"They need to improve when it comes to large, video file archiving. They're good, but they have not met my expectations as a customer in this area."

"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."

"We are using a production environment with customer-sensitive data on it. As per our central bank rules and regulations, we can't keep our customer's sensitive data in the cloud."

"Reduce the complexity for better understanding of the reports. There are a lot of variables in which you can get confused while elaborating on reports."

"For simpler environments, they have some templates for startups. Possibly for a smaller environment, they need to do more automatic configuration and selections of users who want to do backups. This is mainly for smaller environments. I would like them to have the same system fit for all environments: small and big environments. Currently, we have to do a lot of configuration of the layout, which takes time. This solution is appropriate for enterprise-level enterprise, but I would like it to be easier to use for SMB environments."

"It takes a lot of technical expertise to implement. Commvault could increase the training it provides to customers and partners."

"The initial installation is straightforward and took approximately two days. However, the process could be more simple."

More Commvault Cloud cons

"I must clarify that I can only speak to pricing aspects, not technical features or functionality."

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"It would not be affordable for small to medium size organizations."

"We like that there is no extra cost for SharePoint, Teams, or OneDrive. It is all mimicking Microsoft's model. Every user has one terabyte of space. When users start using OneDrive, everybody has one terabyte that will be backed up included in the price."

"You have to pay for the licenses and the hardware you need for the Commvault environment. If you don't have all the hardware, you have to buy it, which can cost a few million. In the end, it's vital to protect our data, so the price isn't an issue."

"If budget allows using the per socket license and not the agent based with per GB counter for Dedup is the way to go."

"In India, this is a very expensive product."

"The solution is worth the money."

"The price of Commvault HyperScale X is a lot higher than competitors. As a government institution, we have annual costs. We made a budget for one year in advance. It was difficult to calculate the other solution's costs because each solution has another way of licensing. The solution is expensive but it is very good and we know the good quality we will be receiving."
