Excellent migration services that are easy to scale

What is most valuable?

I like that I can focus on the logic and I don't have to worry about the administration stuff. AWS handles that for me.

What needs improvement?

There's some functionality that we're waiting on, like the problem scheduler. It's not yet supported in the current product. The solution could use schedule linking. I'm keen to get that from the solution in the future.

If you previously used a different solution, which one did you use and why did you switch?

We didn't previously use another solution.

What other advice do I have?

We are using the public cloud deployment model. I would rate the solution eight out of ten.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated HVR as well as DMS. We ultimately chose DMS because of the costs and the licensing they offered. Also, our needs were quite simple. We didn't really need HVR to do the migration.
