Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Commvault, Nutanix and others in Disaster Recovery as a Service."The backup retention was pretty good. Being able to archive users who had been backed up, is a good functionality. Even if they've been deactivated it'll keep the backups and keep them protected."
"The most useful thing is that it provides a snapshot of your environment in about 15 minutes. It is stable, and it always works. It is also scalable and easy to set up."
"Site Recovery's most valuable features include its user-friendly console and the ease of migration."
"Azure Site Recovery helps to save costs."
"Our primary use case is for disaster recovery and business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR)."
"Provides generally good performance, from protection to production to failover to data recovery."
"The documentation is good, and it can be integrated with other products."
"It is a very stable product and very scalable."
"What I like best about Azure Site Recovery is that it's easier to use because my organization already has Azure as an Active Directory solution."
"StorageCraft wasn't getting full backup coverage. It was backing up around one to 2% of the points. It was not a reliable platform and it wasn't giving any sort of alerts that things were not working."
"The primary area for improvement in Azure Site Recovery is its pricing."
"It could include more of a backup and recovery."
"I would like to see more security features."
"The immutable backup could be better."
"It is for site-to-site replication. When something goes wrong on your site, you only get 15 minutes before it also goes wrong on your replicated site. There should be some way to be able to say that we want to restore it, but we want to restore it to the version from yesterday. It should support versioning. I would also like to see real-time scanning for advanced threat protection, more straightforward billing, and quicker turnaround on the tech support."
"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."
"The support team took a lot of time to respond and was not very professional."
"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."
