We performed a comparison between Dell AppSync, Dell RecoverPoint, and Dell SRDF (Symmetrix Remote Data Facility ) [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Delphix, IBM, Hitachi Vantara and others in Copy Data Management."This solution is very helpful and easy to use."
"I believe one of the advantages we saw was that the configuration was manageable."
"We use RecoverPoint for disaster recovery and asynchronous replication, and we use the application at a block level, not the software level. This has been tested, and it's very durable."
"It has improved RTO and RPO."
"The image backup feature is great. For example, if you set the journal to take a backup every ten minutes, it will create a snapshot or pointer every ten minutes for as long as you need."
"The product does block-level replication very well."
"The tool's most valuable feature is stability."
"It excels in duplicating data between two distinct types of storage systems."
"The solution provides continuous data protection."
"It can replicate data from a distant location and it can scan it as well. It has continuous data replication with almost no data loss."
"The feature of taking snapshots from the replicated volumes has allowed us to use them for DR testing to validate the application consistent point of recovery."
"We've found the support to be very good overall."

"It would be helpful if this product has features for transferring to the cloud."
"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."
"Considering the speed Dell RecoverPoint can recover data, it would be good if we could replicate data from on-premise to the cloud with this solution."
"Integration with VMware is the only thing we need to improve. Another feature I'd like to see is the ability to convert management to HTML. And the integration should also be done on the same level."
"The solution normally supports only specific types and amounts of storage. If it could be increased to support much larger amounts or a wider range, it could fetch a bigger market."
"The cost of the solution is pretty high. The licensing costs may affect a company's ability to scale."
"Other hypervisors should be integrated with this system. Other hypervisors should be able to get the benefits of this solution."
"When it comes to storage and backup, that is where scalability problems have affected us."
"RecoverPoint's WAN optimization could be improved."
"The support is horrible."
"The main pain point that we experienced is during device creation. For every newly provisioned volume, creating replication relationships between production and DR site, creating snapshots for third copy at DR site, and configuring them in appropriate replication groups and device groups means that there are lot of steps involved and a lot of room for error. There has to be a lot of checks and balances which need to be incorporated to make sure that the solution is set up correctly."
"If you are new to the product, the initial setup might be a bit difficult."
