Pricing is a significant factor for our company as the annual renewal is challenging. There are competitive products in the market that have lower costs, which adds to the challenge of the pricing factor.

Originally, it was really attractive when we were deployed on-prem. They have since built and moved it to the cloud, which I am a big fan of. I have all my security tools in the cloud, but it came with a significant increase in pricing. We ended up negotiating a better price because we have been a long-term customer, and I have also spoken on their behalf quite a few times, but if I have to buy it at its current rate, I am not sure if I would be a customer. It is expensive.
Using a subscription-based license has been advantageous. We've been able to significantly reduce costs by tailoring our spending to our actual usage. This is a stark contrast to the earlier model with its prohibitively high fixed-price licenses.

Commvault Backup & Recovery is priced fairly, and its performance-to-cost ratio is also better than fair. I am not here trying to figure out how to get Commvault to reduce their cost by ten percent because I am satisfied.

Commvault Cloud is expensive, and there is room for the price to be 10-15 percent lower than what they are charging currently.
Our licensing model is reasonable for us. We don't know the exact current licensing models in detail.
Commvault is slightly more expensive than similar solutions. We observed a pricing range of 15% to 17% more.

I would rate the price of Commvault Cloud seven out of ten with ten being the cheapest.
