GigaOm Radar for Hybrid Cloud Data Protection (Enterprise)
The GigaOm Radar for Hybrid Cloud Data Protection (Enterprise) recognizes the importance of data protection on customers’ journey to the cloud, especially the difficulty in protecting data generated in multiple places. According to the report: “The range of options to protect customer environments makes Commvault well suited to all market segments, especially to larger enterprises with complex environments where a unified solution that simplifies the complexity is highly valued. Commvault’s ability to solve complex data management challenges extends beyond backup and includes capabilities to further protect customer data.”
Commvault Complete Data Protection scored the highest possible rating in all Key Criteria and Evaluation Metrics, which include analytics, security, and breadth of solution.
“At Commvault, we’re focused on making data protection in any environment as simple and efficient as possible,” said Ranga Rajagopalan, VP of Product Management at Commvault. “We recognize that the cloud poses unique opportunities—and unique challenges—and are focused on ensuring that our customers’ data is protected no matter where it lives.”

This report focuses on Small and Medium-Sized Businesses and their adoption of SaaS applications that live in the cloud, but do not come with inherent data protection. The report states: “Commvault is one of the few data protection solution providers that can offer an end-to-end product line suitable for the needs of organizations of every size. Complete Data Protection focuses on large enterprises, while Metallic’s agile release cycle addresses mid-market and smaller organizations and protects SaaS apps.”
“Commvault and Metallic offerings together offer end-to-end data protection solutions for companies of all sizes,” said Manoj Nair, General Manager, Metallic. “Customers further along their cloud journey can protect their SaaS, multi-cloud and on-premises workloads with the simplicity of Metallic BaaS. Customers who need the flexibility of an on-premises deployment via software or appliance model can add Metallic to protect their SaaS workloads or MCSS for their air-gap ransomware protection recovery copy. This is only possible with what we call the power of ‘AND’ with Commvault and Metallic, which are unique in flexibility and choice for our customers.”
