Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is that it is journal-based and you don't have to replicate a lot of data.""RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast.""The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes.""Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature. Its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable.""Point-in-time recovery and ease of deployment are valuable.""The installation is straightforward if the version you have is compatible with your infrastructure.""The workload can be moved directly if the disaster site is the main site.""It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."

"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward and simple.""Database replication is most valuable. It is multi-platform, so it can replicate from a variety of different database types to a variety of different database types."

Cons
"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.""I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release.""I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment.""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.""It would be good to have a critical application on the customer side.""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.""The configuration process seems a bit challenging, and the installation takes a bit longer than expected."

More Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines Cons →

"The high cost of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""It does data manipulation language (DML) replication, but it does not do data definition language (DDL) replication. In my opinion, it is a disadvantage. It would be nicer if it was able to do both DML and DDL. I'm not 100% certain of this, but it seems Oracle Golden Gate does both DML and DDL. MIMIX only does DML, and it would be very nice if they included DDL replication. This is one feature that would be very helpful to have."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This is not a very cheap solution and compared to others, it is expensive."
  • "This is an expensive product."
  • "Pricing-wise, it is pretty much fair for any customer who only has a VMware environment. Licensing is based on the number of VMs that you want to protect at any given point in time. Licensing is not based on size."
  • "There is a license required for this solution and the pricing depends on how many virtual machines you have."
  • "It was a part of a backup solution. So, it was free for us."
  • More Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The licensing provides the access to support. I do know that there's an annual charge for being able to call into their support line and get a technical team from Precisely to assist with any issues we may have. I don't think there are any additional costs other than what we incur internally in terms of the infrastructure that we need to run and operate the product."
  • "The cost of the product is too high."
