"It is amazing because it is very easy to test with many alternative bookmarks."
"It has improved RTO and RPO."
"The solution is now Flash-based, which is better. they moved away from Java."
"When it works, it is the best product that is available."
"The product does block-level replication very well."
"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."
"The most valuable feature we have found in RecoverPoint is its ability to provide the lowest RPO."
"We are able to easily do Azure backups and restores."
"The most important feature to us is creating live snapshots without impacting user access to the file. NetApp's processes are transparent to users and allow us to create point-in-time snapshots, enabling us to replicate that data into the cloud in real time without any impact."
"The solution is fast and it doesn't use any disc space at all. You can also take as many snapshots as you like. These are the solution's most valuable features."
"SnapMirror and Snapshot are both very reliable products."
"From a functional standpoint, it's been, pretty much bulletproof. I have never gone to a snapshot and not been able to do what I needed to do."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the snapshot and clone capabilities."
"It doesn't occupy a lot of space and is very easy to use once you schedule the snapshots."
"The consistency of Snapshot is very significant."
"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."
"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."
"RecoverPoint's WAN optimization could be improved."
"It is worth mentioning that this solution is no longer supported, primarily because it doesn't replicate between two different storage systems anymore."
"I am waiting for block replication with VirtualBox."
"The cost of the solution is pretty high. The licensing costs may affect a company's ability to scale."
"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."
"The solution needs to ensure it has higher availability or business continuity."
"NetApp needs to take a look at their pricing in comparison to the competition and make the appropriate change to attract more customers and gain in market share."
"Not a perfect ten because there is one point off to give it room for improvement."
"I would like to see cloud features added to the next release of this solution."
"The next release should include developments on the step center for purpose or bandwidth."
"I think the automation needs some improvement."
"If your data is more dynamic and changes frequently, you need more granular retention levels and need to save it for a longer duration, then this becomes a real challenge."
"The initial setup of NetApp Snapshot is not straightforward. It's not something that you can do just by clicking on the next step button. It has to be designed and it has to be implemented according to your network capabilities and the use case scenario."
