Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"The solution has been very stable."
"Since the log files are continuously transmitted, the granularity of restores is amazing."
"The fact that we are able to test the failover of live systems during regular hours is invaluable to our organization."
"The ease of use and simplicity in moving things without having to do a cross-v set of V-motions has been most valuable. It saves time and effort and it eliminates mistakes."
"Its user interface is excellent, and when it comes to data duplication, Zerto is very fast."
"Failing over the VM without removing/touching the production VM from inventory is also an important feature."
"The replication feature where it constantly replicates and sees that data is always in sync is valuable."
"The return to operations is the most valuable feature because it decreases the amount of time it takes us to recover."
"The file restoration is very helpful. They've improved it over the years to make it a lot more user-friendly and easy to do, which I appreciate. So, we use that quite a bit. The failover process is quite simple and intuitive. Even the configuration and setup are pretty easy to do. It is pretty easy to use. I've done the restoration of servers several times, not as a disaster. When an upgrade on a server goes wrong and it messes things up, I can just fail back to a previous version and try it again. So, that has been really helpful."
"The management could be a bit better."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The performance was generally good, but occasional lag disrupted the flow, leaving room for improvement."
"The solution is very expensive."
"There needs to be more flexibility in the licensing."
"The problem with the backup product is that it's not very mature and you really need a specific use case to be able to use it effectively. It's hard to explain to our customers, especially our large customers, that the use case is so limited."
"Right now, our production environment runs on-premises, and we have a DR copy of everything that we run in production. However, our development runs on that hardware. In the case of a DR event, we would need to shut down development and bring up our secondary copy of production. We're hoping that Zerto is going to be the tool to help us do that."
"The technical support response needs improvement."
"When we do failover and failback, it doesn't maintain some of the settings that it should and I don't really understand why that happens."
"The overall management plan could improve. If something happens with the VM on the vSphere side, the error codes are pretty weak. If there was a way to click on something within the UI that takes us to a support page or article, that would be very beneficial."
