Vijay Londhe - PeerSpot reviewer
Managed services with seamless integration and good reliability
Since I have to view everything on the console, the previous application solutions like IBM and Sanavi showed the RPO and RTO status directly. In AWS Disaster Recovery Service, these details are not available, making it difficult to check my replication status. I have to calculate whether my data is replicated to the Adarabad region or not. These features, if available in AWS, would be beneficial.

Good policies related to data
I primarily use it for various policies related to data, such as data retention, data deletion, and archiving policies. All policies can be set using this system The most valuable feature for me is the policy management capabilities. I would like to see more integration with different platforms,…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Since it is a managed service, I reduce my time to manage infrastructure and applications."
"It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests.​"
"Technical support has been very good. They usually respond quickly to our requests.​"
"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."
"AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery is a robust and reliable solution for disaster recovery needs."
"The setup is pretty straightforward."
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users."
"We have never had any issues with scalability."
"The most valuable feature for me is the policy management capabilities"
 

Cons

"The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line."
"Definitely there should be better logging. From a customer perspective I would like to see more logs on what is happening. If there is an issue, I would like to know what the problem is. Right now, we have to depend on the support of the vendor to check and let us know, because we don't have access to a lot of logging information."
"Since I have to view everything on the console, the previous application solutions like IBM and Sanavi showed the RPO and RTO status directly. In AWS Disaster Recovery Service, these details are not available, making it difficult to check my replication status."
"Since I have to view everything on the console, the previous application solutions like IBM and Sanavi showed the RPO and RTO status directly. In AWS Disaster Recovery Service, these details are not available, making it difficult to check my replication status."
"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 solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"An improved AWS pricing model is needed."
"In its current state, ECL integrates with CloudWatch for basic logging and monitoring, yet improvements could include more detailed logs for specific actions, like when I perform actions such as push or pull."
"I would like to see more integration with different platforms."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has saved us money from having to buy hardware for disaster recovery."
"I feel the product's pricing is a good value. Licensing is pretty straightforward."
"I rate the price of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery a six out of ten."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"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."
"They license us on a per machine basis. We have a set number of machines, which we have licensed.​"
"CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is charging clients $20 to do the DR backups. It is an expensive solution."
"We were happy with the pricing that they gave us."
