Commvault Cloud powered by Metallic AI
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We are using Commvault Cloud powered by Metallic AI to back up SalesForce instances for two different parts of the business. And in the near future, we'll be using it for M365.
Pros
- Backs up up cloud workloads
- Ease of use for on-prem customers of Commvault
Cons
- More integration between on-prem and cloud instances
- Commercials should favour a customer that uses both on prem and cloud
Return on Investment
- We did not have a proper backup solution for Salesforce, so very positive response
- Same goes for M365 in the near future
Usability
CommVault Cloud - Pretty, Pretty Good!
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We are slowly dipping our toe in the great pond that is AI, since it is a new technology and forever evolving.
As we use it more and more, we have the AI monitor and alert trends, along with analysis. Events that required our attention and issues that we deem were quite important were exposed on time and when needed!
This is actually a very effective tool with the current scope we have it set at and will expand it more in the future!

We are using it to backup M365 data, such as OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. As we are already a Commvault customer, extending the services into the cloud was the natural choice.

- Easy to configure.
- The rate of failure is almost zero.
Cons
- The onboarding process was very poor executed.
- We were offered a functionality as part of the package, but later, we were notified that it was no longer free.
Return on Investment
- Allowed us to use the M365 resources more efficiently and free up on prem space.
- The onboarding process was painful.
- Sales team was a bit deceiving.
