AWS Backup vs. Commvault Clumio

There is a cost involved with data retrieval. AWS Backup is truly that, a backup. If you need to access this data on a regular basis, there are better options out there. For long term, just in case incremental backups, AWS [Backup] checks all the boxes. Just set it up, start your backups, and rest assured your data is safe.

If you are in a highly virtualized infrastructure, Clumio is the only choice right now. It was built in the cloud, for the cloud, and handles on-premise environments very well. If your environment is lots of physical servers or lots of database servers, maybe start with a slower rollout of Clumio, but do not go with something else. Clumio is the answer to backup, now and in the future!

• Centralized management - single pane of glass to manage backups for multiple AWS services.
• Encryption - integrates with KMS to encrypt backup data at rest and in transit.
• Cross Account management - manage backups across multiple AWS accounts with AWS organizations.

• Offers a highly predictable cost model for all of our environments.
• Easy to manage. One set of policies for all over our VM servers.

• Restoring the compute nodes of the cluster should be done always
• Having the default Roles all the necessary permission, you have to add some depending on your configurations
• Being able to see the Jobs status in a centralize account more graphically

• Since Clumio is a new product, it is not as feature-rich as some of the incumbents, but it is still a superior product.
• Customized reporting capabilities are needed for this product.

Overall because I can sell it white labeled and use my white labeled software like CloudBerry and the native backup apps on my synology NAS servers to store things in real time and do duplication and disaster recovery directly to it was game changing for my client in the advertising world they are never down now.

Support for AWS Backup is by Amazon itself so it is solid as always. If you have a business or higher level support plan you'll have no trouble getting engineers or other staff on the job to help you with whatever comes up.

Clumio support thas been both responsive, definitive, and helpful. They have been great to deal with as we have worked our way from Proof of Concept, to production roll out. They are quick to answer emails, and also alert us when they see a potential issue. These new "proactive" vendor support models are great to experience

I've tried a lot of different products. Backblaze, at least from a birds-eye view is significantly cheaper than AWS/the rest. Backblaze is a little more simpler, but it's well worth it. Linode also provides backup options, however I'm only familiar with their backup on their VPS's (however you make that plural), which never gave me a problem.

There was nothing like Clumio to evaluate. We did look at some of the incumbent on-premise solutions that have cloud-based offerings. They all require hardware infrastructures to accomplish their job, thereby locking you into having to manage and update hardware. Clumio displaces these systems by offering a true cloud-based backup with no need to manage hardware, or maintain hardware, or manage software upgrades. And new features are added all the time without having to upgrade!

• Offsite means a failure at our cloud provider means we can redeploy quickly to another data center or another provider quickly.
• The cost can't be best.
• Pay only for what you use. No need to pay for extra data that you don't need.
• No minimums

Incentivized

• We are able to get rid of an aging backup infrastructure and free up expensive rack space.
