Its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable.""RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast.""The most valuable feature is that it is journal-based and you don't have to replicate a lot of data.""The installation is straightforward if the version you have is compatible with your infrastructure.""The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes.""One of the standout features of Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines is its real-time data protection capability.""It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."

Cons
"The configuration process seems a bit challenging, and the installation takes a bit longer than expected.""I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment.""It should have features for recovering a group of virtual machines and full-scale security. For recovering all the VMs at once, they don't have a GUI option, and we have to use the command line.""It can have better integration. It would be good if, in addition to VMware VM, it can also support other hypervisors. I also want to see support for Oracle databases. As of now, it supports only SQL and Exchange. It would be good to also support other databases.""The solution is not easy to use. It's actually quite hard. If it could be simplified it might be better for the end user.""I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release.""In the next release of this software, I would like to see options that help to decrease the bandwidth required, such as compressing the data.""The solution could improve by being more easier to use. However, once you have used it for a while it becomes easier. Additionally, there could be better support and compatibility with management by having a command-line interface. This would be beneficial for the customers."

More Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines Cons →

"It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution.""VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery could improve by enhancing the network bandwidth from the storage.""When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient.""The improvements should be as per customer requirements.""The automation should be simplified or improved."

  • "It was a part of a backup solution. So, it was free for us."
