Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy.""One of the standout features of Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines is its real-time data protection capability.""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.""RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast.""The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes.""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."

"It is a stable solution.""When it comes to recovering what you need from a backup, it's really easy. You just drill through the directory, find the file and the date that you want, and click to recover. You then pick the directory you want to save it in. Usually, it takes a minute or two and it's done. It's quick and easy.""Quorum OnQ has taken the guesswork out of backup/recovery and disaster recovery.""I have used the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) in several emergencies and it has absolutely saved my bacon.""It's easy to implement, easy to spin up, easily configurable, to drop-in appliances and network. There wasn't a lot of time needed to spin it up.""The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use.""The solution is very cost effective.""The solution offers good documentation."

Cons
"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.""I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment.""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 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.""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.""It would be good to have a critical application on the customer side.""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."

More Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines Cons →

"Better integration with cloud-based solutions like Azure and Office 365 is needed.""I don't love the scheduler, as I think that interface could use an overhaul.""Lacks compatibility in terms of supporting other OS.""I paid for subscription of Firewall. I paid for subscription of endpoint protection. Thet should introduce single subscription for all services.""At times the email notifications don't go out, but a quick reset always fixes that problem.""The user interface needs to be improved.""The price is high and could be more competitive.""We found that some of the live SQL databases we were backing up would be inconsistent when we would restore them."

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."
  • More Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "We have never questioned whether it is worth it because it so obviously is a great value."
  • "When we first got the Quorum the licensing was different."
  • "The cost is higher than other software and services, but it is an absolute must-have."
  • "The total for our current solution's licensing is about $14,000 for 12 servers for three years."
  • "The pricing is about $1,400 a month. It's a little bit on the higher side. But it's one of those situations where time is valuable for me. So if it costs a little bit more money for me to have a solution that just works and requires less of my day-to-day management, I'm willing to pay a little bit more."
  • "The initial expenditure for us was a little under $40,000 for the recent renewal. For the first three years after that, other than electricity, there's no cost. After that, their support contract has to be renewed annually. We spent close to $6,000, between the two offices, for support."
  • "When we quote the price of Quorum to customers, they find it expensive."
  • "The upfront cost of purchasing a license for the hardware is quite steep."
