We performed a comparison between AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery and VMware SRM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery (DR) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"The initial setup is really straightforward."
"CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is a fairly stable solution."
"We have never had any issues with scalability."
"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."
"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 pretty straightforward, it's not complex."
"VMware SRM's most valuable features are its convenience and its use of stretched clusters."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the integration part, along with the subsequent hardware."
"This SRM solution can improve your footprint within a data center."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the automatic recovery of the virtual machine if it goes down."
"The thing I like the most about SMR is the reduced cost of management."
"The product functionality is fairly high-quality."
"In terms of resiliency, the most valuable aspect of SRM has been its effectiveness."
"If you want to do failover, it works without any problem."
"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."
"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."
"The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"The user interface, customer support, and the recovery time for the current customer query could use improvement."
"Sometimes a server will get a bit behind. "
"I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives."
"I have not seen any areas that need improvement at this time."
"The interface is not easy to use and can be made more user-friendly."
"The price, in general, could be lower."
"Technical support can take some time to respond."
"In my opinion, the integration with Peer Persistent Storage could be improved."
"The solution must provide better integration with third-party vendors."
"The primary site lacks adequate equipment, such as power backup and cooling, which can lead to downtime during issues like power outages or overheating."
"Sometimes it can cause a bit of downtime during switchovers."
"Flexibility to choose different PITs would be nice."
