Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users.""The solution is dependent on the network bandwidth. For example, if they have a bandwidth of 10Mbps the solution will run a little heavier. If the bandwidth is good the solution runs well.""​The initial setup is really straightforward.""We went from an organization with minimal to no disaster recovery. I was able to spin up the disaster recovery environment with AWS rather quickly and meet business requirements.""It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests.​""The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads.""Technical support has been very good. They usually respond quickly to our requests.​""We have never had any issues with scalability."

"The initial setup is easy depending on the environment you are working with.""We feel the ability to move virtual machines while they are still running to be the most valuable feature.""Technical support is very proactive and helpful.""The most valuable features are the backup and disaster recovery services.""Setting up VMs can be done quickly. It is easy to use."

Cons
"The only thing I would like to see is, they don't have a formal ticketing system. There is no way I can go back and see what questions we had six months back, what issues we had, and how they were resolved.""Definitely there should be better logging. From a customer perspective I would like to see more logs on what is happening. If there is an issue, I would like to know what the problem is. Right now, we have to depend on the support of the vendor to check and let us know, because we don't have access to a lot of logging information.""The UI could be a little sleeker.""I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives.""Sometimes a server will get a bit behind. ​""The failback could be improved. It should be more intuitive.""The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line.""I set up a test, deleted the source, and went to fail it back, and it didn't work."

"The automation should be simplified or improved.""VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery could improve by enhancing the network bandwidth from the storage.""The improvements should be as per customer requirements.""When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient.""It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We were happy with the pricing that they gave us."
  • "They license us on a per machine basis. We have a set number of machines, which we have licensed.​"
  • "I feel the product's pricing is a good value. Licensing is pretty straightforward."
  • "The pricing is better now that they had come out with the Tier 2 which replicates a little less often. In comparison to what I would have been spending with any other type of solution, the pricing is fair."
  • "Where the price adds up, there are CloudEndure licenses, then there is the AWS environment, and finally, there is the AWS storage, so cumulatively, it adds up."
  • "It has saved us money from having to buy hardware for disaster recovery."
  • "CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is charging clients $20 to do the DR backups. It is an expensive solution."
  • "I rate the price of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery a six out of ten."
  • More AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "I would say VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery is very expensive in comparison with other available virtualization solutions."
