We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

More Dell RecoverPoint Pros →

"It is fully featured. It has allowed me to do everything I wanted to do."

More JumpMind SymmetricDS Pros →

"This solution is easy to implement and easy to use.""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.""The technology enables us to have a safe backup.""The performance and stability are valuable features. It seems to fulfill all the requirements.""The product has good performance.""NetApp SnapMirror's ease of use and reliability are valuable features.""There are a lot of features that are excellent. The data compression during the transfer, for example, is good. The replication is great. The durability of the solution and the speed of the data moving from one site to another is impressive.""They have a very effective dashboard and good reports."

More NetApp SnapMirror Pros →

Cons
"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.""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.""It is worth mentioning that this solution is no longer supported, primarily because it doesn't replicate between two different storage systems anymore.""I am waiting for block replication with VirtualBox.""RecoverPoint's WAN optimization could be improved.""When it comes to storage and backup, that is where scalability problems have affected us.""The product should provide integration with new products.""Other hypervisors should be integrated with this system. Other hypervisors should be able to get the benefits of this solution."

More Dell RecoverPoint Cons →

"The user interface could improve. We are looking at some cloud-based databases, and I don't think they support that."

More JumpMind SymmetricDS Cons →

"There is probably some limitations when it comes to the scalability of the solution.""Compression and deduplication could be improved.""The new coursework models need to be improved. The bandwidth monitoring could also be better.""The price could be cheaper.""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.""The tool should also work on third-party solutions.""The user interface could be simplified. They might want to have fewer options on it, to make it less complicated. There are a lot of options we never use ourselves. They're often very specialized and don't apply to us.""The price needs to be improved."
