	Veritas NetBackup	Commvault Data Platform
ServiceNow Integration	ServiceNow Self Service support.	Lacks fully implemented out-of-the-box ServiceNow support. Requires controlled environment and prior validation.
Rapid Deployment and Ease of Use	Under 5 minutes to implement containerized NetBackup data protection and cloud tiering services.	Limited container support model—800% more time required to deploy.
Visualization and Governance	Integrated Information Map application: real-time global visibility and insights across primary and backup data; on-prem and in the cloud.	Primary data visibility limited to on-prem file servers, no primary data visibility for on-prem Sharepoint, Exchange, or any cloud sources.
Classification Policies	Comprehensive content classification: 100+ policies, 450+ patterns covering 38 countries.	Limited to only 57 patterns and 15 countries.
Deduplication Policies	Simultaneous client source, target and global deduplication policies optimizes storage efficiency and performance.	Limited to selecting only one policy from supported deduplication implementations.
Docker Certification	Industry’s first Docker-certified backup and recovery solution for containers.	No formal Docker certification as of date of this document.
Agentless Modern Workload Support (Hadoop, HBase, MariaDB, MySQL)	No agent required. Veritas NetBackup supports Hadoop, HBase, MariaDB, MySQL, and Nutanix with a single plug-in.	Requires agent for all nodes for Hadoop, HBase, MariaDB, MySQL and Nutanix.
Multi-tier Resiliency and Availability	Veritas NetBackup integration with Veritas Resiliency Platform delivers business continuity for complex, multi-tier environments with multi-VM group dependencies.	Lacks multi-VM group dependency handling and mutli-tier business continuity capabilities.
Cloud-Based AI/ML Proactive Support	Cloud-based AI and continuous machine learning uses real-time aggregated telemetry from thousands of customers, providing superior prediction effectiveness, proactive system and prescriptive remediation, performance and capacity forecasting, and compliance policy adherence.	Sampling/statistical data limited to individual customer deployments. Less diverse data results in reduced telemetry scope and machine learning effectiveness.
