Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for Commvault yet. From the next edition this section shows, per buyer segment, whether its share moved by more than the measured noise floor.

By framing

Which of the six questions produced the naming. By model says how often; this says asked what. The first-choice count on the right carries the marks of the models that produced it.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“If your environment is more complex, I would instead recommend Commvault or Arcserve” Perplexity Sonar · Backup and DR · paraphrase prompt · alternative

“offers top-tier, enterprise-grade capabilities with the simplicity of a SaaS delivery model” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Backup and DR · paraphrase prompt · alternative

“The ultimate "all-in-one" platform for highly complex, heterogeneous IT environments.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Backup and DR · comparative prompt · alternative

“Widest workload support (mainframes to SaaS), governance | Steeper learning curve” Grok 4.1 Fast · Backup and DR · comparative prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“Avoid for Mid-Sized: Pure enterprise like Commvault (too complex/pricey)” Grok 4.1 Fast · Backup and DR · paraphrase prompt · hard negative

“Recent issues: Multiple critical vulnerabilities discovered in 2024-2025 (CVE-2025-34028, CVE-2025-3928 with CVSS scores up to 10.0)” Kimi K2 · Backup and DR · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Commvault. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 57 of the 73 answers that named Commvault and are not a share of its labels.

Names read as Commvault

What the judge wrote, as written, with how often. The vendor table decides that these count as Commvault; a claim can dispute any of them.

Commvault Cloud 2

Is this your product?

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Commvault's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Commvault, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at commvault.com is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
