Overall Satisfaction with Metallic.io

Prior to using Metallic, we had an on-prem backup solution through Dell. The existing infrastructure was aging out and the backup software was becoming unreliable. We also had multiple disparate systems that backed up additional infrastructure not supported by the Dell backup solution. This led to multiple portals to log on and multiple backup emails to review daily to confirm successful backups. We wanted a single backup solution that would give us a single pane of glass to monitor our backups. This includes Office 365 (Sharepoint, Email, Teams) as well as on-prem virtual infrastructure through VMware and IBM systems. Also backing up our on-prem file server.
  • Office 365 Backup (Sharepoint, Email, Teams)
  • Virtual Machine backup
  • File Server backup
  • Active Directory and Azure Active Directory Backup
  • Error Logging and Error messages could be improved
  • Documentation of Metallic functions vs existing commvault functions
  • Backup Failures sometimes aren't explained
  • Metallic has allowed us to collapse multiple disparate systems into one comprehensive toolkit which saves money in the long run.
  • Better reliability of backup infrastructure.
  • Removing reliance on physical infrastructure allowing us to backup direct to cloud.
Metallic was the only system that had everything that we wanted and was consistently able to show us the benefits or their organization. Rubrik had similar features but in the end, they came up short in the ability to backup all of our workloads. We also liked that Metallic was spun off of Commvault which has been a player in the game for such a long time. Rubrik still had some development to do.
