We performed a comparison between Nutanix Disaster Recovery as a Service 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."We haven't needed anyone to maintain or deploy the solution. The traditional Nutanix administrator can administer the solution."
"The solution is stable."
"It offers synchronous data replication, allowing us to sync our recovery data every hour and efficiently send applications to remote sites."
"The tool's most valuable feature is ease of use."
"Hyper-convergence gives me the ability to patch my firmware, software, and hypervisors with a single click. That is extremely useful."
"It is a very secure and scalable solution, and their support is also outstanding."
"VMware's tech support gets a nine-out-of-ten. They are responsive and get you a useful reply."
"Our systems fail over using SRM. So, we do a big bang DR, which is biannual, and we fail over our fairly massive Epic electronic health record (EHR) and our core applications. It takes us about 30 minutes to fail over using SRM, which is pretty good. In most hospitals that have Epic installed, Epic does the audit to make sure that we can fail over if something were to happen. Normally, sites will have a DR solution specific to the EHR, but right now, our pain point is the third-party tier-one clinical applications."
"It's very reliable. The solution is stable."
"It has a good and effective user interface."
"Testing failover capabilities."
"SRM's best feature is automation."
"The most valuable feature is disaster recovery testing."
"My impression is that the initial setup process is relatively straightforward."
"I think that Nutanix should support public clouds instead of the Nutanix data centers."
"The solution needs improvement in cost."
"The pricing could be better."
"The product is more costly than other platforms. The price could be better."
"For moving the data for DR, we are using Megaport. We are using a Megaport link between the data centers, so we have a third party for the site-to-site connectivity between the data centers. If such connectivity is available from the Nutanix side, it would be helpful for us."
"They need better reporting on the environment."
"The configuration process could be improved."
"Lacks stability and as a result requires continuous monitoring."
"I would like to see this solution be more scalable."
"There are many functionality problems with the product currently. It is also slow and unstable."
"The solution could improve by removing some of the limitations we have been facing. There could be better integrated."
"The primary site lacks adequate equipment, such as power backup and cooling, which can lead to downtime during issues like power outages or overheating."
"If you have a failover case, you need to work on it manually. It would be helpful if this could be automated. It would simplify things."
"Flexibility to choose different PITs would be nice."
