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 technical support from Dell is excellent."

"The most valuable feature is that it is journal-based and you don't have to replicate a lot of data."

"The workload can be moved directly if the disaster site is the main site."

"Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature. Its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable."

"The most valuable features are the data center recovery administration and the time of recovery."

"It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."

"The product's initial setup phase was quite easy to install."

"One of the standout features of Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines is its real-time data protection capability."

More Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines pros

"The most valuable feature of Precisely Assure QuickEDD is the backup system."

"Synchronous applications are valuable."

Cons

"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 configuration process seems a bit challenging, and the installation takes a bit longer than expected."

"In some cases, the response times could improve, but we haven't had issues with their support."

"I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release."

"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."

"It would be good to have a critical application on the customer side."

"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."

"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."

More Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines cons

"Our administrator found the solution easy to use, but once that administrator left, it felt very overwhelming to the individual who took it over."

"There should be more interactive dashboards."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a license required for this solution and the pricing depends on how many virtual machines you have."

"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."

"The tool is expensive. If one means cheaply priced and ten means expensive, I rate the tool's price as a seven."

"This is an expensive product."

"This is not a very cheap solution and compared to others, it is expensive."

"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."
