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

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!

Pros

Universal Recovery
Instant Recovery
Business Application Detection
Snapshots!
Encryption!

Cons

Mobile Accessibility. We see this with the Commvault ComCel. I predict it will come soon!
Found the adoption of the technology did take some time to configure with our environment
The learning curve was a bit steep

Return on Investment

The onboarding process was challenging. We felt this could be improved
The enhanced data security impressed our internal security team
Downtime was reduced significantly overall comparing to past quarters

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

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.

Pros

No babysitting required. Just set and go
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.
