What do you like best about the product?
Metallic is really good for email backup. It has an easy to to use graphical interface and it is self-explanatory, I was able to create our email backup without any help. It has a lot of features like the retention policy that meets FINRA and SEC requirements for financial institutions. It has WORM (Read once Write Many) capabilities which makes retention very good. I check on the Backup once a week and everything is there. I could go to bed with Metallic Backup!
What do you dislike about the product?
It is slow when retrieving data. It takes a long time probably because it pulls data from a distant server in a low-level container. If that can be improved, Metallic will be on top!

Quick support, highly reliable, and beneficial automatic operations
What is our primary use case?
We used Commvault HyperScale X to increase the security of datasets, to be sure that all data and all backups that we have are secure, and that we have them in another place, such as disaster recovery. The idea is to always have a third copy somewhere else. The initial idea was to have a third copy of that backup sets to be in the state government data center. However, before they finish, I left Ministry, and they have not finished that job.
Generally, the idea is to have a possibility, for all backup data, after some time, to be saved in another place. For now, everything is still inside the Ministry.
How has it helped my organization?
Commvault HyperScale X has increased the way our organization functions by adding more security to the backup sets. In case the primary location is disabled, or there is some problem with the primary location, the second one will continue to work. The idea is to always have a working backup.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature of Commvault HyperScale X is the automatic nature of its operation. We don't need to worry about sets of documents. It worked automatically, we don't need to think about it. When you set the solution up in a good way, you don't need to worry.
What needs improvement?
The price of Commvault HyperScale X could improve.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Commvault HyperScale X for approximately one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Commvault HyperScale X is highly stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability of Commvault HyperScale X is good. It is simple to add more systems or server storage.
We have approximately 400 endpoint users and 40 terabytes of data being used.
How are customer service and support?
We had to use the support and they were responsive and quick. They fixed the problem, not immediately, but the timeframe was dependent on the ticket type. They were always there to help. They did regular call checks until everything was resolved.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We used many different solutions previously. When we had some large issues in 2015, I decided to buy a professional corporate solution for all the systems. We did test some other solutions, but with Commvault HyperScale X, we received what we needed and much more. Additionally, Commvault HyperScale X was easy to maintain and use.
How was the initial setup?
The solution was easy for us to implement because we have been working with Commvault for many years, and we know what to do. The initial setup alone will that approximately two weeks. The longer portion is buying the hardware and setting it up.
I rate the initial setup of Commvault HyperScale X a three out of five.
What about the implementation team?
We did the implementation of Commvault HyperScale X with a local partner. They installed it and did the setup. For us, it was easy to add new features to the Commvault HyperScale X backup.
The company that has the solution is managing the solution.
What was our ROI?
We have seen a large return on investment by using Commvault HyperScale X.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The price of Commvault HyperScale X is a lot higher than competitors. As a government institution, we have annual costs. We made a budget for one year in advance. It was difficult to calculate the other solution's costs because each solution has another way of licensing. The solution is expensive but it is very good and we know the good quality we will be receiving.
There were not any additional costs. The new storage, software, and support were inside the price.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We did evaluate other solutions before choosing Commvault HyperScale X.
What other advice do I have?
The solution has changed since I have used it but what I know is the solution offers companies the possibility to have their own backup storage.
I rate Commvault HyperScale X a ten out of ten.

We wanted to ensure that our Office 365 documents are backed up as part of our Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery (BCDR) efforts. Metallic also backs up our Teams files and chats, which is very helpful for us.
