"We went from an organization with minimal to no disaster recovery. I was able to spin up the disaster recovery environment with AWS rather quickly and meet business requirements."

"The initial setup is pretty straightforward, it's not complex."
"It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests."
"The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads."
"The backup feature and recovery option are good because they allow the instant recovery of Hyper-V nodes and files."
"When we talk about a backup point of view, from a backup perspective, it's a good one."
"The ability to back up both physical and virtual appliances under one roof."
"What I found most valuable in Unitrends is its simple user interface. It also works reliably."

"When I have had to use tech support, they've been very good."
"The most valuable feature of Unitrends for me is the automated feedback"

"Sometimes a server will get a bit behind. "
"I set up a test, deleted the source, and went to fail it back, and it didn't work."
"I have not seen any areas that need improvement at this time."
"The user interface, customer support, and the recovery time for the current customer query could use improvement."
"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."
"I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives."
"The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"It seems like Unitrends moved away from enterprise customer engagement and moved more towards the managed service provider market."
"I would like to see the real-time replication process improved, and a zero RPO feature added."
"The amount of updates which are being released. Updates should be limited to two or three a year, focusing more on quality instead of a rushed bug release."
"Probably the biggest issue I've had is actually paying for the unit, and part of that problem is that they use a third party for the billing."
"The solution’s support and onboarding process needs to be improved."
"The ability to run just differentials without pulling the full on your archive."
"If the interface could be less complex, it is would be great."
"The solution’s UI can be improved. I am saying this because I have seen solutions with better UIs."
