Pros
"One of the standout features of Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines is its real-time data protection capability.""It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy.""The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes.""Point-in-time recovery and ease of deployment are valuable.""RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast.""The most valuable features are the data center recovery administration and the time of recovery.""Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature. Its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable.""The workload can be moved directly if the disaster site is the main site."

Cons
"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.""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.""I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release.""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.""It can have better integration. It would be good if, in addition to VMware VM, it can also support other hypervisors. I also want to see support for Oracle databases. As of now, it supports only SQL and Exchange. It would be good to also support other databases.""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."

More Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines Cons →

"The solution has the option to take backup on-prem servers, but it's not very efficient.""Additional features I would like to see are the ability to restore to different vendors, AWS and Azure, and/or the ability or take the information out of the AWS cloud.""It's a global feature that the customer thinks they don't have enough tools to manage, to copy, to delay, and to classify the object file in the backup directory. So they need more tools to manage files in object directory.""More documentation would be helpful, especially some step-by-step documents for recovery scenarios.""The GUI has room for improvement.""The GUI could be slightly improved.""There is room for improvement in stability.""The UI is a little dated and hard to use. Some of the buttons are a bit small. You have to go into the menu to get the settings you want."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This is not a very cheap solution and compared to others, it is expensive."
  • "This is an expensive product."
  • "Pricing-wise, it is pretty much fair for any customer who only has a VMware environment. Licensing is based on the number of VMs that you want to protect at any given point in time. Licensing is not based on size."
  • "There is a license required for this solution and the pricing depends on how many virtual machines you have."
  • "It was a part of a backup solution. So, it was free for us."

  • "The purchasing process through the AWS Marketplace is easy. Just click the button."
  • "The pricing and licensing on AWS is fine, because you can do it for smaller tiers depending on your number of instances, so it's not that scary."
  • "AWS adds more features and offer things for free, or cheaply. Therefore, we will be evaluating AWS Data Lifecycle Manager, because it will probably do backups. Thus, make sure the product that you are using is competitive or adds more value than AWS."
  • "It's very economical and worth the cost."
  • "It has very good pricing per instance and comes with three options, for both small and large environments, to fit your needs."
  • "The price is not cheap, nor is it costly."
