Commvault software assists organizations with data backup and recovery, cloud and infrastructure management, and retention and compliance.

Products

Commvault software is an enterprise level data platform that contains modules to backup, restore, archive, replicate, and search data. It is built from the ground-up on a single platform and unified code base.

Data is protected by installing agent software on the physical or virtual hosts which use operating system or application native APIs to protect data in a consistent state. Production data is processed by the agent software on client computers and backed up through a data manager, the MediaAgent, to disk, tape, or cloud storage. All data management activity in the environment is tracked by a centralized server, the CommServe, and can be managed by administrators through a central user interface. End users can access protected data using web browsers or mobile devices.

Key features of the software platform include:

  • Simplified management through a single console; view, manage, and access all functions and all data and information across the enterprise.
  • Multiple protection methods including backup and archive, snapshot management, replication, and content indexing for eDiscovery.
  • Efficient storage management using deduplication for disk and tape.
  • Integrated with the industry's top storage arrays to automate the creation of indexed, application-aware hardware snapshot copies across multi-vendor storage environments.
  • Complete virtual infrastructure management supporting a number of hypervisors, including VMware and Hyper-V.
  • Advanced security capabilities to limit access to critical data, provide granular management capabilities, and provide single sign on access for Active Directory users.
  • Policy based data management, transcending limitations of legacy backup products by managing data based on business needs and not physical location.
  • Self-service for end users, which allows them to protect, find and recover their own data using common tools such as web browsers, Microsoft Outlook and File Explorer.
  • Commvault software also includes customized data management solutions for: managed backup services, healthcare, and big data environments.
