I am considering a new implementation of EV 10 to arhchive about 2 TB of Sharepoint doc data, Doc,pdf,tiff,jpg.
There is another vendor proposing Commvault Simpana 9. I am more familiar with Exchange and File archival and just need real world info on sharepoint archival.
Also any issues it there is a custom sharepoint application. Basically we want to offload files out of SQL into cheaper storage and also long term retention.
Anyone here got any analysis on capability/intergration/ease of use and other eval criteria comparisons between the 2 products?

So CommVault is "the house the backup built".
Backup is really their sweet spot and typically archiving is only sold or offered with their backup solution. I am not that familiar with what they can do in regards to SharePoint but if eDiscovery is in play then I think CV's solution isn't as advanced as most customers need. It is more of a "pump and dump" solution.
If you have any other specific quesitons feel free to ping me offline and I will try and help.
