Find out what your peers are saying about Delphix, IBM, Dell Technologies and others in Copy Data Management."I believe one of the advantages we saw was that the configuration was manageable."
"This solution is very helpful and easy to use."
"It excels in duplicating data between two distinct types of storage systems."
"The tool's most valuable feature is stability."
"The solution is very stable. Once it's installed, many customers forget they even have it."
"The solution provides continuous data protection."
"The solution is now Flash-based, which is better. they moved away from Java."
"RecoverPoint's most valuable feature is the automatic failover."
"It can replicate data from a distant location and it can scan it as well. It has continuous data replication with almost no data loss."
"It has improved RTO and RPO."
"We've found the support to be very good overall."
"The feature of taking snapshots from the replicated volumes has allowed us to use them for DR testing to validate the application consistent point of recovery."

"I would like to have the ability to bit the same system with multiple AppSync replications would definitely be beneficial to us. And general flexibility enhancements."
"It would be helpful if this product has features for transferring to the cloud."
"I am waiting for block replication with VirtualBox."
"When it comes to storage and backup, that is where scalability problems have affected us."
"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."
"The support is horrible."
"The cost of the solution is pretty high. The licensing costs may affect a company's ability to scale."
"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."
"RecoverPoint's WAN optimization could be improved."
"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."
"If you are new to the product, the initial setup might be a bit difficult."
"The main pain point that we experienced is during device creation. For every newly provisioned volume, creating replication relationships between production and DR site, creating snapshots for third copy at DR site, and configuring them in appropriate replication groups and device groups means that there are lot of steps involved and a lot of room for error. There has to be a lot of checks and balances which need to be incorporated to make sure that the solution is set up correctly."
