Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery as a Service solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We use the solution across hospitality and healthcare domains. We use it for custom development. It helps us develop a seamless omnichannel for the healthcare industry."
"The documentation is good, and it can be integrated with other products."
"The solution is secure, reliable, and scalable."
"Site Recovery's most valuable features include its user-friendly console and the ease of migration."
"They're moving a lot of their workload to cloud and aiming for a seamlessly integrated product."
"We use the tool for business continuity purposes."
"Azure Site Recovery is an easy-to-use and fairly stable solution for disaster recovery."
"Azure Site Recovery's automated file synchronization was a game-changer in managing legacy systems."
"Metallic is user-friendly, cost-effective, and the technical support is impressive."
"The solution is very stable and offers a good level of performance."
"Commvault helps to ensure broad coverage with the discovery of unprotected workloads. This is important. From the moment that we set it up, we mostly have customers telling us what they need to back up. Then, you can list the machines that are not yet protected. Sometimes, we can see that they are unaware of this, and say, "We didn't know that those servers were not protected yet," or "We did not back them up yet.""
"Real-time synchronization is a good feature."
"It is just about as flexible as you can get; simple. You can put it anywhere you want. You can put it on-prem or in your cloud. I could see where a team that's looking for more of a follow the bouncy ball type of solution might get a little confused. "Oh, no. What do you mean I might have to do it this way or I can't do it that way?" Sometimes, people just want to be told what to do. For an enterprise environment, like we are at NDOT, everything we do is not standard. It is not industry standard; it is not normal. We have all kinds of one-offs. We do need flexibility in the solutions that we get. I will say that Metallic has been extremely flexible in that sense, where we are able to follow the bouncy ball if we wanted to. Obviously, we didn't. We did it our way and Metallic, as a whole solution, provided that to us with no issues."
"There are many valuable features of Commvault HyperScale X giving many possibilities to complete jobs."
"The solution provides us with a single platform to move, manage, and recover our data across on-premise locations. Some of the guys have been using it to move a virtual machine from VMware to the Microsoft solution, Hyper-V. They back it up and then they restore to the different virtual machine provider, and that works great."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"When it runs, it runs well but when it doesn't run, the solution needs to make it clearer as to why and what the troubleshooting process is. All this would be possible if the error logging was streamlined a bit."
"Azure Site Recovery's deployment is complex. There are a lot of bugs, and it needs to improve stability."
"It would be good if we could replicate the solution to multiple locations simultaneously because we are currently allowed to replicate to just a single location."
"We need to be able to move the virtual servers and not build and then port them across. They need to improve the hypervisor."
"It could include more of a backup and recovery."
"The support team took a lot of time to respond and was not very professional."
"The product's performance is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Site Recovery's scalability could be improved."
"The pricing of the solution can be improved and made cheaper."
"The stability of the tool could be improved."
"I would like to see a more user-friendly GUI."
"I would like to see some of the code execute a little bit better when I add new licenses and assign licenses to users. I'd like to see that information update a little quicker."
"Training."
"The product does not provide an option to save a copy of data on-premises."
"The initial setup was complicated."
"It does not have an easy deployment. The deployment is not something that just anybody can go in and deploy."
