Other backup products have a tendency to be rigid in design. Many times it is necessary to choose a backup solution that best fits the environment and sacrifice features for functionality. Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery is centered on adaptability. The product framework provides infinite flexibility while also providing backward capability to previous configurations. Utilizing vendor APIs allows for less product development time, more reliable operations and better support. The integrated auditing and logging mechanisms provide extensive analysis of processes.

Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery is best suited for a large environment that is hybrid and a mix bag of applications, storage devices, and operating system. It's really a good fit like our environment where we are in a transition of physical to virtual and on-prem to Cloud provider. Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery really covers these arenas really well.

I believe it's less appropriate for a small SMB that does need not a robust backup infrastructure due to cost.

Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery is best suited for small and large environment who need fewer admins and would like automate most of the operations. The tool is best suited for companies would like to backup different types of applications, middleware and data off prem and on prem.

I've been creating and using backup systems for over 40 years, and I know how hard it is for a single solution to work well in different environments. I've been very surprised to find that Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery does a really good job with just about everything in the backup/recovery space. It is both very, very capable, and flexible, suitable for very large and complex environments.

Until recently it had one fatal flaw in environments with huge files to back up (terabytes each), but that has now been addressed with "extent-based backups", allowing multiple backup streams to back up different parts of the same file(s). With more tuning and maturity, that feature will have huge benefits in all kinds of enterprise-class situations.

Why we chose Commvault

The product is well suited for any organization that requires a robust backup and restore solution. It is not for a small company as there is a rather large equipment cost to get setup. The professional support is second to none. Just with the support model Commvault uses, that is worth the annual maintenance costs alone. We have always been able to complete a restore.

I think that Commvault is well suited for mid-large environments because of the options that you have and how easy it is to implement different options. For small companies, there may be too many options that would not be used. Overall it does a great job for what we need it for.

Nothing is perfect, nor never will it be. Commvault knows this. They also take that and spin into a way that allows them to mold and construct a "Perfect for YOU" application and solution. Where the shortfalls of most applications present hardships, Commvault thrives on these issues to make a great product. The need to address particular issues within your environment allows them to mold this solution to exactly what you need and want. That in itself is as perfect as I can ask for.
Too often the "out of the box" solution just doesn't cut it. Our entire environment is this exact scenario. Nothing in our company is cookie cutter. But I know how I want it to work and flow. I have been able to construct an operable and manageable environment with the help and guidance of this amazing team of engineers and developers.

We have distributed sites over poor networks, but the client side de-duplication makes a real difference. The single pane of GUI makes familiarization easier, especially for customer service staff. Pre- and post-execution scripts are great. Good support for Microsoft products including clusters and Active Directory. Hyper-V and VMware are all supported with new machines automatically added.

CommVault is an eEnterprise scale backup solution that is able to provide data protection from ROBO to Regional/Global DC. Application aware plugins provide hot backup. AuxCopy features provide a secondary level of data protection to any medium for long-term data protection.

Dedupe tools are excellent. However, there are limitations and it would not work for clients with a DB sitting on ROBO environment.

It is well suited to use with customers like banks and finance companies because Commvault is capable of catering all backups, replication and compliances. If the customer is looking only for replication then they should not go for Commvault. People should carefully select the licenses by talking to the vendor so that they can help them for their environment.

In my experience, Commvault is best designed for large enterprises with sparse or segmented data deployments. If all of your data is similar, and sitting in one data center or cloud storage solution, it isn't cost-effective. In a word, overkill. I had a client that was looking for a backup solution for unstructured data in separate and air-gapped data sources. My cCmmvault rep could not offer a solution that was cost-effective and did not require multiple copies of the data, so storage made the solution nonscalable or cost-effective.

As mentioned above, Commvault is a tool that allows you to set up a complete system from one place and for all types of backup that exist in a particular organization. It is easy to use for end users as well as system administrators. When colleagues want to see or hear about the Commvault solution, I am always happy to invite them to look at the system at work.
