  • We can create backup jobs that are easily manageable to control when the environment gets backed up.
  • No backup is good unless you can easily restore from it and Metallic does a very good job at organizing our backups and delivering a restored copy when needed.
  • We are able to restore multiple Office 365 tenants allowing us to test backup processes.
  • Metallic Backup & Recovery could do better at organizing the backups we take making them easier to find and sort between which backups contain different content.
  • Metallic Backup & Recovery could improve on creating retention policies for the backups that are taken so that they are not filling up without us knowing.
  • Sometimes loading the data from Office 365 takes a long time in Metallic so we'd like to see an improvement on the communication between Office 365 and Metallic.

  • Backs up virtual machines quickly and completely.
  • Integrates well with Oracle's built-in RMAN tools for recovery & cloning, making success much more likely.
  • Produces really good logs.
  • Runs on Red Hat Enterprise Linux with minimal changes to the clients.

  • Commvault is the Swiss Army knife for data protection in an Enterprise environment. You name the environment and Commvvault has something to protect it. Very helpful in this on-prem/off-prem world that is developing into a DevOps world.
  • Improves our Disaster Recovery
  • Starting to utilize for data migration for VMware in places where Zerto is too expensive
  • Would be good to improve simplicity. Obviously, with the hundreds of different types of OSs, we have to support this is a challenge. However, I think Commvault is committed to significant improvements in 2020.
  • Not quite a ding as more of an acknowledgment of the need to improve Google Cloud data protection. The biggest problem is Google is just ramping up their cloud features/functions which hinders Commvault to provide that so, Commvault is getting there.

  • Integration of the personalization teams TAPI functionality into core product to increase speed of new functionality rollout.
  • Automation around agent installation for MSPs
  • Dynamic workload allocation, so automatically pausing and resuming workloads automagically so any late-night failures because of any network or client issue could be tried again during the backup window, potentially multiple times.

  • Easy to use interface on top of a comprehensive and trustworthy platform.
  • Policy-based capabilities allow plans that can be easily duplicated and deployed, saving time and helping to ensure assets are protected.
  • The system is very well thought out, the built-in deduplication capabilities save over wire data transmission reducing the throughput and network congestion.
  • Support for encryption
  • Hardware requirements are pretty steep, but understandable for a product that is as comprehensive as Commvault.
  • There is a pretty steep learning curve and the training is a must for a product with the complexity and capabilities of Commvault.
