Use Cases and Deployment Scope

CCL/Revera's Backup-as-a-Service (BAAS) offering uses Commvault as its Backup & Recovery solution. The good thing about Commvault is that it covers all sorts of customer backup requirements and have a very flexible restore option. For example, we can backup supplicated databases (like DB2, SQL, Oracle, etc) using Application iDataAgent and if required, we can export backup data in application native formats.
The backup data replication and storage policy setup architecture makes Commvault the top product as you can tailor your storage policy depending on any requirements. The Global Deduplication feature offers exceptional savings.

Alternatives Considered

Arcserve Backup

Commvault beats CA's Arcserve is every single area. It was a very straightforward choice for us to move from Arcserve due to reliable backup and recovery we get from Commvault. We haven't looked back at Arcserve since 2013.

Support Rating

Engaging Commvault support is super easy and realizable. You do not have to chase support on phone/email. Commvault does deliver what it promises and this makes Commvault the very best available product on the market.
