"The solution provides continuous data protection."
"The solution is very stable. Once it's installed, many customers forget they even have it."
"We use RecoverPoint for disaster recovery and asynchronous replication, and we use the application at a block level, not the software level. This has been tested, and it's very durable."
"When it works, it is the best product that is available."
"It excels in duplicating data between two distinct types of storage systems."
"The solution is now Flash-based, which is better. they moved away from Java."
"The tool's most valuable feature is stability."
"The most valuable feature we have found in RecoverPoint is its ability to provide the lowest RPO."
"It doesn't occupy a lot of space and is very easy to use once you schedule the snapshots."
"You never have to worry about maintaining millions of files stored across several thousands of virtual machines."
"The solution is fast and it doesn't use any disc space at all. You can also take as many snapshots as you like. These are the solution's most valuable features."
"From a functional standpoint, it's been, pretty much bulletproof. I have never gone to a snapshot and not been able to do what I needed to do."
"Compared to the traditional way we did backups, with Snapshot it takes us less time. It has improved my organization by saving us time."
"It has a user-friendly interface."
"The most important feature to us is creating live snapshots without impacting user access to the file. NetApp's processes are transparent to users and allow us to create point-in-time snapshots, enabling us to replicate that data into the cloud in real time without any impact."
"The most valuable features of NetApp Snapshot are the integration with other vendors and customization."
"The solution normally supports only specific types and amounts of storage. If it could be increased to support much larger amounts or a wider range, it could fetch a bigger market."
"I am waiting for block replication with VirtualBox."
"Considering the speed Dell RecoverPoint can recover data, it would be good if we could replicate data from on-premise to the cloud with this solution."
"When it comes to storage and backup, that is where scalability problems have affected us."
"Integration with VMware is the only thing we need to improve. Another feature I'd like to see is the ability to convert management to HTML. And the integration should also be done on the same level."
"RecoverPoint's WAN optimization could be improved."
"The product should provide integration with new products."
"Other hypervisors should be integrated with this system. Other hypervisors should be able to get the benefits of this solution."
"NetApp Snapshot's price could improve to allow them to capture more market shares."

"I think the automation needs some improvement."
"The solution needs to ensure it has higher availability or business continuity."
"The price could be a bit lower."
"Not a perfect ten because there is one point off to give it room for improvement."
"The initial setup of NetApp Snapshot is not straightforward. It's not something that you can do just by clicking on the next step button. It has to be designed and it has to be implemented according to your network capabilities and the use case scenario."
"Although support is good, the global support is lacking depending on location."
