Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads.""​The initial setup is really straightforward.""The setup is pretty straightforward.""The solution is dependent on the network bandwidth. For example, if they have a bandwidth of 10Mbps the solution will run a little heavier. If the bandwidth is good the solution runs well.""It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users.""CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is a fairly stable solution.""For regular backup and restore solutions, this product is fine.""It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests.​"

"The stability and restore options on the solution are very good.""One of the most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect is it does not require the use of an extremely fast internet connection for it to work. The backup process is automated which is great.""The most valuable feature is the snapshot capability.""In my opinion, the console or dashboard is the most valuable feature of this solution.""The most valuable features are the fast replication and recovery of data.""Cloud Connect's best features are its simplicity, flexibility, and constantly-expanding options.""I've found flexibility to the most valuable feature. I also like that it's scalable and that the stability is okay.""Replication without network changes."

Cons
"The user interface, customer support, and the recovery time for the current customer query could use improvement.""The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved.""Sometimes a server will get a bit behind. ​""The only thing I would like to see is, they don't have a formal ticketing system. There is no way I can go back and see what questions we had six months back, what issues we had, and how they were resolved.""The failback could be improved. It should be more intuitive.""I set up a test, deleted the source, and went to fail it back, and it didn't work.""The UI could be a little sleeker.""I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives."

More AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery Cons →

"Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases.""There are some issues with the cloud providers for Veeam Cloud Connect that do not support all the features.""The pricing is much higher than what our clients expect it to be.""We need the solution to offer IT storage.""The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors. They could work to build something around that concept.""I think Veeam Cloud Connect could be more stable, scalable, and secure. I think better pricing is needed.""If a customer has a low budget, Veeam may be too expensive.""The dashboard could be more intuitive."

  • "I feel the product's pricing is a good value. Licensing is pretty straightforward."
  • "The pricing is better now that they had come out with the Tier 2 which replicates a little less often. In comparison to what I would have been spending with any other type of solution, the pricing is fair."

  • "It has saved us money from having to buy hardware for disaster recovery."
  • "CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is charging clients $20 to do the DR backups. It is an expensive solution."

    Overview

    AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery (AWS DRS) minimizes downtime and data loss with fast, reliable recovery of on-premises and cloud-based applications using affordable storage, minimal compute, and point-in-time recovery.

    Set up AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery on your source servers to initiate secure data replication. Your data is replicated to a staging area subnet in your AWS account, in the AWS Region you select. The staging area design reduces costs by using affordable storage and minimal compute resources to maintain ongoing replication. You can perform non-disruptive tests to confirm that implementation is complete. During normal operation, maintain readiness by monitoring replication and periodically performing non-disruptive recovery and failback drills. If you need to recover applications, you can launch recovery instances on AWS within minutes, using the most up-to-date server state or a previous point in time. After your applications are running on AWS, you can choose to keep them there, or you can initiate data replication back to your primary site when the issue is resolved. You can fail back to your primary site whenever you’re ready.

    Veeam Cloud Connect for the Enterprise enables businesses to act as a disaster recover (DR) service provider to deliver off-site backup and replication services to internal customers. This eliminates complexity by removing the need to maintain a VPN connection and it improves security by encapsulating all backup and management traffic into a single port.
