Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Commvault, Nutanix and others in Disaster Recovery as a Service."Azure Site Recovery's automated file synchronization was a game-changer in managing legacy systems."
"Azure Site Recovery is an easy-to-use and fairly stable solution for disaster recovery."
"The documentation is good, and it can be integrated with other products."
"What I like best about Azure Site Recovery is that it's easier to use because my organization already has Azure as an Active Directory solution."
"It is a very stable product and very scalable."
"Provides generally good performance, from protection to production to failover to data recovery."
"They're moving a lot of their workload to cloud and aiming for a seamlessly integrated product."
"Our primary use case is for disaster recovery and business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR)."
"Setting up VMs can be done quickly. It is easy to use."
"Technical support is very proactive and helpful."
"The most valuable features are the backup and disaster recovery services."
"We feel the ability to move virtual machines while they are still running to be the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is easy depending on the environment you are working with."
"The support team took a lot of time to respond and was not very professional."
"We need to be able to move the virtual servers and not build and then port them across. They need to improve the hypervisor."
"One area for improvement with Azure is helping customers predict usage more accurately."
"The pricing predictability and clarity around the final cost of the plan of this solution could be improved."
"It would be good if we could replicate the solution to multiple locations simultaneously because we are currently allowed to replicate to just a single location."
"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."
"It is for site-to-site replication. When something goes wrong on your site, you only get 15 minutes before it also goes wrong on your replicated site. There should be some way to be able to say that we want to restore it, but we want to restore it to the version from yesterday. It should support versioning. I would also like to see real-time scanning for advanced threat protection, more straightforward billing, and quicker turnaround on the tech support."
"Could have more integration with other platforms."
"It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution."
"The automation should be simplified or improved."
"The improvements should be as per customer requirements."
"VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery could improve by enhancing the network bandwidth from the storage."
"When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient."
