Has reduced downtime by enabling fast recovery after ransomware incidents
The facility to use Datto SIRIS is a function that I prefer. The user interface of Datto SIRIS is very simple and very user-friendly. The restore is very fast. The alerts that arrive in my email are very complete. Reporting in Datto SIRIS is very efficient. The reporting via email from Datto SIRIS for me, my customer, and my team shows that every single backup is okay or if there is a problem because the snapshot for the server is broken or another problem that I can address systematically. Since I started using Datto SIRIS, the time to recover data or servers has improved significantly; before, restoring a file or server was very long with the normal backup system. Datto reduced the time much more when I needed to recover a file or a machine. The cost for Datto SIRIS is very important. Using Datto SIRIS notably reduces time and introduces high-level security. Datto SIRIS positively impacts my organization by reducing downtime for the restore. The restore with Datto SIRIS is very fast compared to other solutions that I know.

Communication improvements enhance platform reliability while seamless recovery process supports application safety
I don't currently have knowledge of the best features of Nutanix Disaster Recovery. I don't have specific features in mind that are missing in Nutanix Disaster Recovery that I would like to see included in the future. I don't find Nutanix's pricing reasonable; my higher authority manages pricing discussions. I'm not aware of the pricing as it's usually handled by delivery managers and the architect team. I don't know of any disadvantages of Nutanix outside of the technical support issues previously mentioned, as I'm still comparing it with ongoing learning. I didn't face any challenges while starting to learn Nutanix Disaster Recovery; it has been straightforward. I would recommend Nutanix Disaster Recovery as there are no issues, and I ensure to explain everything regarding application safety and functionality to the application owners. On a scale of one to ten, I rate Nutanix Disaster Recovery an eight out of ten.
