Metallic is your one stop shop for Backup Solution.
What do you like best about the product?
The support and the ease of use to get up and running with Metallic is breathe of fresh air. All I had to do was put in a quote request, and within the same day, I got in touch with someone. They were able to get me activated and have my data backup all on the same day. I like how they will work with small to big size businesses to ensure they have protection.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't anything I dislike; I have had a positive experience with them for being a customer for a few months.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Metallic Backup is solving my worry about ransomware and the risk of losing data from accidental deletion. The benefits I receive a weekly report from their team to ensure everything backup successfully with no problem. It's nice to know my data is protected from any situation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an affordable, reliable backup solution for your Microsoft 365 data, you found the right provider. You will be happy the same day knowing your data is protected.
Metallic SaaS Data Protection on O365
What do you like best about the product?
It is a SaaS solution, Commvault has two Metallic products:
1) Metallic for O365
This is mainly to protect O365 in terms of Exchange online, OneDrive, Sharepoint, MS Teams. When I started using this product, it was hosted in Germany.
SSO and SAML integration with Azure portal works very well. The granular recovery of messages including deleted items are one of the features here. You can also still filter the mailbox of resigned or disabled users (deleted objects) and it also has infinite retention policy. For example, if you started your journey with Metallic O365 in 2019 you can still go back to this year for mails restoration.
2) Metallic Data Protection
This is another SaaS Solution it is also available now in UAE region and in Azure Cloud Marketplace where you can simply enable it to protect you Azure environment. The good thing here you can extend this tool to protect your on promise as well, but you need a proxy server that can maintain the data protection of your client machines on premise. A local storage is also required to store the data locally with short retention for faster restoration, but the data upon the local backup can be taken as an aux copy to azure blob storage and will be transferred to a cool storage at the end of the way. With this tool you can protect your Oracle database, SQL servers, filesystem, and virtualization (Hyper-V and VMware). It can also protect your Azure environment, but there are certain consideration to be taken.
The implementation for each one of them is easy and no complication.

What do you dislike about the product?
Licensing part or reporting part yet to be enhanced because some time it causes confusion to understand what is right and what is wrong.
The delegation part of mails, it is experienced that delegated mails from a backup to one person does not show all protected mails. After the delegation the user or the authorized person whom mails were delegated complained about not being able to find all mails. Metallic team were approached with this concern to clarify what could be the problem. There are various reasons here to also consider one of them is the archive of mails.
The support a bit challenging, they do not provide 24x7 support like veeam, the support also is not available or does not fall on all the weekdays. It is only 5 days and does not cover full day. it is contrary to what veeam does. I believe Metallic should solve this problem because it causes issues especially when you have severity 1, the support may take several days.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it took the headache of maintaining the infrastructure, previously admins used to handle local microsoft exchange, here you need to maintain the servers (physical or even virtual), the storage space, the troubleshooting, etc. But with Metallic SaaS this is completely taken out and handled by Metallic in the backend and nothing to worry from this perspective.
With Metallic O365 the retention is infinite and no matter what you back up it will be considered unlimited.
Metallic Data Protection for backing up servers, virtual machines, database is a bit different from O365, it is for different purpose and the retention policy is limited, the storage capacity is limited and you pay what you consume.
Metallic O365 gives complete data protection for Microsoft O365 environment.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
it is a wonderful solution and commvault is providing more enhancement. we are as customers also try to add more ideas to this solution by requesting few more features enhancement. It is a SaaS solution and it can be found on azure if you use Microsoft Azure Cloud, and it will cover all your needs.
Metallic backup solution review
What do you like best about the product?
It was very easy to setup the backup jobs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some time the jobs will fail and you have to really dig into the logs to find the reason.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Metallic backups our Office 365 tennant. Backup & restore works seemlessly for the most part.
Simple, Complete, and RELIABLE Backups
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of maintenance - once setup and configured, Metallic has ran reliably with very few if any required manual interventions or errors. As someone who has worked at the provider level with backups, including backups as a service, the lack of constant intervention is huge.
What do you dislike about the product?
Admin interface takes some getting used to, particularly when used to more traditional backup systems. Everything is there, just not always where I expect it to be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Needed a secure, reliable system for backups for a small law firm without a bunch of overhead of additional software, tape or disks, and all the headache that can go with those.
Greta product and service.
What do you like best about the product?
Once set up it is easy to use. They help[ed with set up and are always there when i have questions.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since we are small and i dont use the interface alot, I forgot about how to do things but they always help, which is nice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Confidence that everything is there is i need a backup.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dont wait and risk not having what you need protected.
Great online backup solution
What do you like best about the product?
Online laptop Backups are happening without any user interference. Configuring and installation of backup solution is very simple and User friendly, User not required to configure what needs to backup.
What do you dislike about the product?
Faced challenges while replacing the Laptop. After replacement, it took 3 days to list for the restore option which is very dissatisfying for us,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Laptop users are used to roaming across the world as per their work , This application will more helpful for this kind of user. Anywhere in the world laptop backup will continue to happen with cloud servers without any issue.
Secure, Simple and straight forward.
What do you like best about the product?
ease of use and integration with Azure blob under the covers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing as of yet to dislike about the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Exchange backups were painful. O365 backups are smooth and we get per mailbox now every 8hr.. which is nice.
Backup *should* be simple and comprehensive
What do you like best about the product?
Metallic is an enterprise-level backup using the same Commvault backup/disaster recovery solution that major companies globally use today, but it's designed for easy deployment into the modern workplace; remote employees. I set it up at my home on my Macintosh and PC within minutes, immediately it began to back up data and soon I had a full backup in the Azure cloud.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've been in the backup and storage industry for over 20 years, starting with ArcServe and Cheyenne, so I'd like an advanced console for those that hanker for a bit more customizing.
A "nice to have" would be the ability to restore into a virtual machine in either Azure or AWS.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The home PC (or Mac) is incredibly vulnerable to data loss and deployment of cloud solutions like iCloud, Onedrive, or Dropbox aren't as widespread or easy as they should. Metallic Endpoint's default configuration starts with the most common places on a PC that need to be backed up; Documents, pictures, user directories, etc. Too much emphasis is placed on recovery of the whole machine when only a small part of it is critical; your personal data.
Also, Metallic Endpoint allows a user to do what backup administrators have been dreaming of for YEARS; restore their own data. In a study I was part of at a previous employer, we discovered that most of a backup admin's time is consumed by completing file restores from individual users. Frequently, it was for a file that hadn't been backed in a timely fashion or at all.

Enterprise-grade Backup & Recovery
What do you like best about the product?
Enterprise-grade Backup & Recovery and the SaaS software evolves each month. The Customer Success team has been great!
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice to be able to order the software direct from Commvault versus having to go through a partner.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping my critical assets backed up & secure.
