Backing up multiple workloads in multiple environments. Able to easily scale and backup large datasets in both virtual environments as well as File systems. The Office 365 components are also very robust and able to set up and scale quickly. Using dynamic groups for Mailbox backup management is key to easy management.

Commvault offers very good backup software for big enterprise companies. It also has archives and replications in single software. Additionally, we can use workflow for programming, write scripts for backups, monthly restore tests, get snap and mount on the storage, or whatever else. Reports are very useful and user-friendly.

With the office 365 cloud storage being immense, locating files is very tiresome; that's why Metallic 365 stands out with the robust search controls to ease the strain. I constantly pinpoint data backed up with Metallic in just a few clicks. It supports all office 365 applications spanning (but not limited to) 365 groups, teams, and my favorite 365 SharePoint.

Metallic Office 365 is well suited in situations where your Office 365 environment has any kind of external automation jobs running on it. In our situation we have a middle software reading and writing data to our Office 365 platform which in some cases can be dangerous if the information being written isn't accurate. In cases like this where we have automated jobs changing our Office 365 platform, we need a solution like Metallic to be able to take backups in case our environment is tainted.

Commvault works well in a large environments with a variety of client types and data classes. With its policy-based configurations, it makes administration of large environments easier when configuring storage and retention, copies, schedules, client configs, etc. Commvault also backs up just about everything you can think of, and works with almost all storage and compute platforms, so there are rarely any cases where Commvault cannot accommodate.

Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery does its job well in any type of environment. The possibilities of backing up different types of environments with VMs, SQL, File Servers and their restore and disaster recovery process are extremely useful for any company. It has a reasonable cost of implementation so I don't think it is the best idea for backing up smaller companies or simpler operations. The cost benefit may not pay.

It's very well suited to large environments, where you have a wide set of different technologies.
In this scenario, Commvault is the most likely backup system to be compatible with all technologies/systems you use.
It's also very recommended to protect a large NetApp environment. They have a very good partnership and it is reflected on the integration between the two systems.
The 'price' for it is that Commvault is a complex tool to implement and manage.
It works in a different concept from the other backup tools in the market. It's not 'job-oriented', but 'policy-oriented.'
It brings some headaches to those who dont have much experience with Commvault. To administer large environments, I would recommend to look for someone experienced on it.
We did it a few years ago, and this guy did a really good job improving our backups.

Commvault [Complete Backup & Recovery] does well in large environments, with assets that are geographically distributed. It scales up well. The reporting is kind of ugly, which makes it harder to share simplified reports with less-technical users. The logs are very verbose, which is helpful both to their support staff as well as to experience users & administrators. Administrative rights can be controlled very granularly, making it easy to delegate limited responsibilities to operators.

Does an awesome job for file-level restores. I have used it to restore files, folders, emails, and a database. We have not came across anything that is not appropriate for Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery to be backing up. When restoring a file you have to select the path twice, which would be the only negative.

Commvault does a great job at protecting enterprise workloads either in the data center or in the cloud. Its wide range of support for applications, hypervisors, operating systems and cloud means it really is a "one size fits all" from a product standpoint. If you have a hetrogeneous environment then it is by far the best product in the market because of its wide integrations.

I feel that Commvault's Active Directory Recovery and Testing of the recovery could be improved, but this could very well be a situation where I am not fully understanding the scope. Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery is spot-on in all other areas and will be a perfect fit for anyone with a decent-sized IT footprint.

Commvault works well in a granular recovery situation. The misconception that backup and recovery is disaster recovery needs to be communicated effectively to the organization.

I've supported many backup applications, where most other backup solutions cause pain-points Commvault comes out ahead. If your organization doesn't fit the mold of out-of-box or cookie-cutter solutions, Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery offers custom solutions.

Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery can easily support large and complex environments, geographically scattered across multiple Data Centres, as we have. You can manage/monitor everything up to the central management console. You can easily set up a multi-tenanted BaaS model and segregate backup data into individual tenant-based storage policies if required.

Commvault is very well suited for our situation where we are deploying MediaAgents and storage at a customer site, backing up their data, and then replicating those backups to a secondary site (cloud, hosted data center, or second customer site). The auxiliary copy capabilities, ransomware protection, and granular control for each copy make Commvault a very reliable product.

Reporting and alerting are major advantages that Commvault has over other products we support. With so much capability built into the product, we don't have to rely on 3rd-party tools to help us manage our Backup As A Service offering.

Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery is well suited for our environment, which has a huge number of different Operating Systems that need protection. One less appropriate scenario for Commvault is trying to improve as a DATA mover instead of just a backup/restore/DR. CommVault has all our data, but the tools to manage data such as legal searches and migration of VMware is lacking--it's there, but other tools do a much better job. If Commvault is going to become a leader in DATA and not just backup/restore, they need to really improve these data tools to be industry leaders, not just an add-on to backup.

Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery is best where a managed service offering needs to be built to provide service for clients. Especially where there is the requirement for long-term retention of data, Commvault is by far the leader of this piece of the puzzle in particular.

If you have a diverse environment that supports AIX, Linux, Windows, and multiple databases or other applications, Commvault is hard to beat. They really do cover lots of platforms. This keeps you from having to run many different applications just to do backups. However, if you are a smaller shop, or maybe a VMware only shop, I think there are better choices available.

Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery is well suited for most environments. It has cloud capabilities that reduce storage requirements and allows a third party to maintain the media. Utilizing the cloud can reduce the cost, however, time to restore and business continuity will be impacted.

Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery sure brings the swiss-army knife of features to the table to provide almost any kind of data protection solution for it's customers. I've enjoyed using Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery for the past 13yrs. The next biggest challenge I'm seeing at this current time is with specific Google Cloud Platform offerings.
