Enrico Boseli - PeerSpot reviewer
Useful disaster recovery, effective copy replication, but complex deployment
The primary use of the solution is for backup and disaster recovery for medium to large size companies.  The solution's most valuable features are copy replication, instant recovery, and disaster recovery. The solution could be adapted to fit other use cases for smaller companies.…
Rhett Waldock - PeerSpot reviewer
Simple to install, reliable, and has good technical support
There were some limitations in the product that prompted us to shift away from it. You could only have one AppSync profile per server to target where the data could be replicated to. There were a few specific feature limitations in terms of flexibility that required the development of an alternative. However, that was the only flaw. In relation to, the replication destinations. We wanted to collect data from multiple systems and then replicate it on a single system. AppSync was based on a one-to-one replication footprint, which was the limitation that we had encountered. We needed to combine several systems into one. That was one of the scenarios provided by the solution. I would like to have the ability to bit the same system with multiple AppSync replications would definitely be beneficial to us. And general flexibility enhancements.
