"The most valuable features are the replication to the cloud and the deduplication."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that I can by just one click, copy and paste anything that I would want. I do not have to restore the whole virtual machine."
"The most valuable features are that it is able to restore quickly and that it is able to virtually restore on Hyper-V."
"It is easy to configure."

"The product provides instant and virtual standbys."
"It is a very stable product and very scalable."
"Our primary use case is for disaster recovery and business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR)."
"The solution is secure, reliable, and scalable."
"What I love about Azure Site Recovery is its simplicity for basic configurations."
"The most useful thing is that it provides a snapshot of your environment in about 15 minutes. It is stable, and it always works. It is also scalable and easy to set up."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"Azure Site Recovery allows my company to save around 30 percent of the time on every VM that we need to back up and restore."
"Azure Site Recovery's automated file synchronization was a game-changer in managing legacy systems."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"The solution's reporting could be improved and should provide customized reports."
"I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve."
"The solution could improve by being more user-friendly. It can be difficult to assign destinations and choose which files and folders we need to back up. There are some aspects that are unclear."
"The only problem with the solution is that when I change the drive capacity, it has to do a full backup. It's a problem when I have five servers to backup. When I only want to change the size of the drive, I have to do a full backup that can take one week."
"The technical support of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"We cannot restore each user's mailbox. Each user's mailbox should be independently restorable. Also, this solution is very slow. If you select all of the servers, it runs for a long time... It needs to be faster. Finally, If anything happens to one server we should be able to switch to another server."
"The tool doesn't provide cloud integration in India."
"Could have more integration with other platforms."
"The tool should improve synchronization."
"When it runs, it runs well but when it doesn't run, the solution needs to make it clearer as to why and what the troubleshooting process is. All this would be possible if the error logging was streamlined a bit."

"I would like to see more security features."
"It could include more of a backup and recovery."
"Azure Site Recovery's deployment is complex. There are a lot of bugs, and it needs to improve stability."
