Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Disaster Recovery (DR) Software."The most valuable features are the data center recovery administration and the time of recovery."
"Point-in-time recovery and ease of deployment are valuable."
"The workload can be moved directly if the disaster site is the main site."
"The most valuable feature is that it is journal-based and you don't have to replicate a lot of data."
"The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes."
"RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast."
"It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."
"Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature. Its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable."
"The CDP backup feature is very nice, as it allows you to take backups at high frequencies and with application consistency."
"The intuitive interface allows you to set up and perform backups and restores easily."
"We frequently use the granular restore option for when our users accidentally delete files or to recover emails from mailboxes. We have found that to be a must-have feature and it comes with the solution at no extra cost."
"The product has many valuable features for handling backup needs, including replication, live migration, and incremental disaster recovery."
"The interface is user-friendly and even if our tech isn't onsite, we can work with the owners to confirm that the data will be restored with no issues."
"All of the features are fantastic and also the management from Microsoft dealing with multiple machines is great. The whole package is excellent for me."
"This solution is stable."
"The initial setup was simple and easy. Anyone without prior experience can install, configure, and use it."
"I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment."
"I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release."
"In the next release of this software, I would like to see options that help to decrease the bandwidth required, such as compressing the data."
"The configuration process seems a bit challenging, and the installation takes a bit longer than expected."
"It should have features for recovering a group of virtual machines and full-scale security. For recovering all the VMs at once, they don't have a GUI option, and we have to use the command line."
"It would be good to have a critical application on the customer side."
"The solution could improve by being more easier to use. However, once you have used it for a while it becomes easier. Additionally, there could be better support and compatibility with management by having a command-line interface. This would be beneficial for the customers."
"The solution is not easy to use. It's actually quite hard. If it could be simplified it might be better for the end user."
"Improvement areas for Altaro VM Backup include enhancing backup and deduplication solutions for continuous operation and offering an all-in-one solution for hardware backup."
"To improve Altaro, I would like to see the ability to choose more than one backup location at a time."
"It would be nice to see a feature that backs up the host so that, in case of a server failure, an entire server could be restored all at once."
"Replication is not fast, the GUI could be more user-friendly, and technical support is lacking in Iran."
"The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer."
"Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful."
"The scalability of the solution is limited."
"Basically, how it works is that you have a single local drive, and then you have a cloud backup. It'd be nice if you could rotate the single local backup drive. As of now, you can't."
