We performed a comparison between Dell RecoverPoint and NetApp SnapMirror based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Replication solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product does block-level replication very well."
"The solution provides continuous data protection."
"It is amazing because it is very easy to test with many alternative bookmarks."
"The solution is now Flash-based, which is better. they moved away from Java."
"The solution is very stable. Once it's installed, many customers forget they even have it."
"It has improved RTO and RPO."
"We use RecoverPoint for disaster recovery and asynchronous replication, and we use the application at a block level, not the software level. This has been tested, and it's very durable."
"RecoverPoint's most valuable feature is the automatic failover."
"This solution is easy to implement and easy to use."
"Overall, the product is very good. It's an easy to use tool."
"The technical support is quite good."
"The most valuable feature is the data replication tool. There is also a lot of ability for data migration."
"With SnapMirror, the solution is the feature itself that is most valuable. It just replicates the data. It's very difficult to speak about, in the sense that it's similar to the features of a wheel. It is round and it's a part of an automobile."
"NetApp SnapMirror's ease of use and reliability are valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the snap shot."
"The solution is very stable."
"The solution normally supports only specific types and amounts of storage. If it could be increased to support much larger amounts or a wider range, it could fetch a bigger market."
"It is worth mentioning that this solution is no longer supported, primarily because it doesn't replicate between two different storage systems anymore."
"The product should provide integration with new products."
"When it comes to storage and backup, that is where scalability problems have affected us."
"Integration with VMware is the only thing we need to improve. Another feature I'd like to see is the ability to convert management to HTML. And the integration should also be done on the same level."
"I am waiting for block replication with VirtualBox."
"Considering the speed Dell RecoverPoint can recover data, it would be good if we could replicate data from on-premise to the cloud with this solution."
"The support is horrible."
"The new coursework models need to be improved. The bandwidth monitoring could also be better."
"In the next release, I would like to get an active IP number solution."
"The tool should also work on third-party solutions."
"It is not as efficient as it needs to be. It doesn't compress the data really well when it is forwarded to a secondary site. The download performance could be better."
"At the moment, we are not using the synchronous mirror, but we can implement the synchronous mirror. The only thing is that it needs another license. This is the same issue we have with business continuity. It needs another license to be implemented. You need too many separate licenses for the features. They should add some of the aspects of the premium bundle into the basic bundle. Sometimes our customers choose other replication services because of the initial cost of the licenses."
"We have to do manual verifications about the subscriptions often."
"We must be able to integrate Flash Pool with SnapMirror."
"We have different families of storage, such as the E-Series and Flash systems, but NetApp cannot be set up between them."
