Cons
"In the newest version of Azure Site Recovery, the configuration was a little more complex, so this is an area for improvement.""I would like to see more security features.""The primary area for improvement in Azure Site Recovery is its pricing.""The tool should improve synchronization.""I conveyed the feedback to the agent, suggesting an increase in the agent count in our VNS in the USA. I also addressed notification concerns, as some issues didn't trigger alerts during a recent call.""Could have more integration with other platforms.""Azure Site Recovery's deployment is complex. There are a lot of bugs, and it needs to improve stability.""Site Recovery's scalability could be improved."

More Azure Site Recovery Cons →

"They were able to give us a very reasonable price considering we were non-for-profit organizations, however, there is always room for improvement on that cost.""There is room for improvement in the reporting aspect of Druva Phoenix.""Druva Phoenix should include a few reporting features that it doesn't provide currently.""Druva Phoenix is optimized to work with x86 platforms, making it unsuitable for backing up non-x86 architectures like AIX. The solution is primarily designed for physical Linux and Windows systems based on the x86 architecture, as well as virtualized Windows and Linux environments. However, if you have an AIX system, it cannot be deployed in the cloud, and therefore, backing it up in the cloud is not a concern."
