The replication is the solution's most valuable feature. If we have some issues on the VM in the main site we can migrate it to another site automatically.
The most valuable feature is the integration with our Nutanix environment.
It's easy to use and the interface is quite simple.
Its capability to schedule, write and configure the recovery and scheduled steps, such that you don't have to come in and start manually trying to recover the entire machine. You just push a button to recover the VMware and everything is done.
The product is evolving and the vendor is committed to change.
