Continuous data protection guarantees data safety during outages and disasters
Based on my experience, I do recommend Dell RecoverPoint to other businesses. The environment requiring Dell RecoverPoint, such as banks or telcos where data equals money, cannot afford to lose data. The overall solution rating is eight, considering the competition from one or two more OEMs giving a tough time to Dell RecoverPoint.

Replication monitor feature is helpful in that it allows a quick view of the status, errors, and results of the last replication
We appreciate the ease of use in this solution. It looks like File Explorer, where you set up your source and targets. Replications are created simply by using the replication wizard. It also has functionality for scheduling, verification, and alerts. The ability to write code for transformations is very useful. Once the replications are set up it is simple to maintain. The Replication monitor is helpful in that it allows a quick view of the status, errors, and results of the last replication. Replication logs and history files are very useful for determining problematic data issues. The transaction latency tool is also helpful for determining how many connections are required for larger files. The replication types that are available are: Refresh Only, Continuous, and Synchronization. We currently use Refresh Only (scheduled refreshes), and Continuous. The source and target table verification is very helpful for running checks. The Replication Monitor is also a great plus, which shows a quick view of the replication status.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It can replicate data from a distant location and it can scan it as well. It has continuous data replication with almost no data loss."
"The solution is very stable. Once it's installed, many customers forget they even have it."
"It excels in duplicating data between two distinct types of storage systems."
"Dell RecoverPoint offers cost savings in the long term."
"I would rate the overall solution a 9.9 out of 10."
"It is amazing because it is very easy to test with many alternative bookmarks."
"RecoverPoint's most valuable feature is the automatic failover."
"In terms of operational and financial benefits, in case of any disaster, it can recover."
"DBMoto was very simple to set up and move our tables to the Oracle DB."
"The most valuable features are that is easy to install and it is user-friendly."
 

Cons

"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."
"The product should provide integration with new products."
"The cost of the solution is pretty high. The licensing costs may affect a company's ability to scale."
"I am waiting for block replication with VirtualBox."
"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."
"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."
"When it comes to storage and backup, that is where scalability problems have affected us."
"This product would be improved with additional built-in functions for simpler date conversion, as well as for data type transformations."
"Pricing is an area that needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Support is an additional subscription."
"It is considered quite costly."
"While I recommend Dell EMC, it depends on your specific use case. Licensing is perpetual, meaning you buy it once."
"The price is moderate."
"The product is fairly priced."
"RecoverPoint came free as an add-on to the PowerProtect Data Manager backup software from Dell EMC."
"Customers pay a license fee yearly."
"I found the price to be quite reasonable."
