We performed a comparison between KeyCloud Backup and Recovery, Veeam Backup & Replication, and Zerto based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The most important features is that it provides consistent cloud-based backup."
"Replication Job base on a source HPE Catalyst store to perform a full reconstruction of our production systems on our third datacenter, which is our DRP Site."
"The solution can work for companies no matter the size or scope."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to verify that backups are valid."
"It's relatively easy to use and the ability to recover in a short period of time has been great."
"Strong performance with a high level of compatibility."
"The most valuable features are the backup and restoration of our VMs. Additionally, they add features regularly."
"It is a powerful software for communicating with the storage and for redundancy."
"I like that the solution is very simple to install."
"The test features have been really good for us. Our DR testing goes very quickly and easily now for all our stuff with Zerto. We have our priority recovery process, where we cover our databases for our app servers and web servers. All our teams pretty much get their VMs very quickly. The RPOs are very low."
"Our RTO is quick, and we can recover five to ten terabytes of data within minutes of a failover."
"It is incredibly granular and I really appreciate that."
"Zerto is extremely easy to use. You set it and forget it."
"Moving the VPGs from one location to another is a valuable feature. You just click on it and move it and it's done."
"The second feature that sold us was the sub-second RPO. One of the things that made Zerto's product stand out from some of the more traditional solutions four years ago was its ability to maintain sub-second RPO over a group of machines, and that group of machines could be spread over multiple storage hardware."
"This product is impressively easy to use. It's dummy-proof, once it's set up."
"A new feature is the One-To-Many VPG allowing a VM to be replicated at up to three different locations, including local."
"We backup a lot of information in a 24-hour period. It works fine. But there's always room for improvement on that."
"They can improve the features and Veeam Enterprise Manager. The interface and features are kind of limited. It would be good if they can provide more features and a better interface. For example, if I want to provide certain users with the privilege to back up and restore and do day-to-day tasks, I cannot do it in the current version. It is like you either give everything to everyone or no user can have access to anything. In version 9, a lot of features were missing, and it wasn't clear. Version 10 is easier from the communication perspective, and the disk backup option is very clear."
"Some of the best practice documentation could be improved."
"The solution is rather weak when it comes to database integration."
"Immutability could be improved."
"Occasionally, in the course of upgrading one's virtualization platform, the backup can be ruined."
"Integration with other equipment could be improved."
"The product is missing some commonsense features and tools for an enterprise backup recovery product,"
"We try to compare Veeam with other solutions because we are the operations. Then we can give the answers for improvement which is the specific additional system features that other solutions provide."
"We're not fully satisfied with the support team."
"The RPO for our SQL server has room for improvement."
"With the VPG (virtual protected group) it would be nice if you could pick individuals in the grouping instead of having to failover the whole group."
"We do have some sites that are very low-bandwidth sites. Zerto is able to set throttling in the solution, but the throttling is set at a site-wide level. In those instances that have very low bandwidth, I can't reduce the throttling on that site. It would be nice if there were a way to control the throttling by the protection group for a specific workload."
"We encountered some issues during Active Directory recovery."
"I am a little bit worried about how Zerto will work with large volumes of data, such as replication for big data and very large files."
"One improvement that could make it easier would be to have an easier way to track journal usage and a little bit more training around journal sizing. I've done all the training and the journal is still a gray area. There is confusion surrounding how it's billed and how we should bill clients. It would be easier if it had billing suggestions or billing best practices for our clients to make sure that we're not leaving money on the table."
"The alerting has room for improvement as it is the biggest pain point with the software. It is so bad. It is just general alerting on or off. There are so many emails all the time. You have no control over it, which is terrible. It is the worst part of the entire application. I have voiced this to Zerto hundreds of times for things like feature changes. Apparently, it's coming, but there is nothing concrete as to when you can do it."
