Seamless data protection and IP address management streamline server failover
I recommend Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines. I work for a financial institution, and it does what we need it to do. I would rate the product eight out of ten. For improvement, I suggest better orchestration management for easier failovers. I would rate the overall solution an 8 out of 10.

Trustworthy and provides good availability
Our administrator found the solution easy to use, but once that administrator left, it felt very overwhelming to the individual who took it over. It could be more of a knowledge transfer situation that didn't happen, but we didn't know if it was easy to use. Precisely Assure QuickEDD is deployed on the cloud in our organization. The implementation of QLED helped us with our recovery time objective and was a seamless transition. In order to utilize the product to its fullest potential, users should be knowledgeable of what it offers. They should also form a relationship with the person who is their representative. Overall, I rate the solution an eight or nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The speed and the footprint the solution uses regarding storage are great."
"The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes."
"RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast."
"The product's initial setup phase was quite easy to install."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to change IP addresses when failing a server over."
"The generalization of the journals allows us to go back in time and choose the snapshot suitable for us. We can grab it as needed."
"It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."
"The most valuable features are the data center recovery administration and the time of recovery."
"The most valuable feature of Precisely Assure QuickEDD is the backup system."
"Synchronous applications are valuable."
 

Cons

"Although we can change the IP address, it would be good to have some other sort of orchestration to make life easier to manage when we failover."
"The solution currently supports only VMware. There is increasing demand for compatibility with other hypervisors, such as Hyper V and KVM Proxmox. Additionally, licensing has become less flexible and more expensive."
"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."
"In some cases, the response times could improve, but we haven't had issues with their support."
"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 biggest challenge we faced was attempting replication between two different kinds of storage systems, like IBM on one side and Dell EMC storage systems on the other, before opting for VPLEX."
"The solution currently supports only VMware."
"The configuration process seems a bit challenging, and the installation takes a bit longer than expected."
"There should be more interactive dashboards."
"Our administrator found the solution easy to use, but once that administrator left, it felt very overwhelming to the individual who took it over."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a license required for this solution and the pricing depends on how many virtual machines you have."
"The tool is expensive. If one means cheaply priced and ten means expensive, I rate the tool's price as a seven."
"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."
"It was a part of a backup solution. So, it was free for us."
"It is expensive. The cost varies based on your requirements. If you want to manage it, there is an extra cost."
