Communication improvements enhance platform reliability while seamless recovery process supports application safety

I don't currently have knowledge of the best features of Nutanix Disaster Recovery. I don't have specific features in mind that are missing in Nutanix Disaster Recovery that I would like to see included in the future. I don't find Nutanix's pricing reasonable; my higher authority manages pricing discussions. I'm not aware of the pricing as it's usually handled by delivery managers and the architect team. I don't know of any disadvantages of Nutanix outside of the technical support issues previously mentioned, as I'm still comparing it with ongoing learning. I didn't face any challenges while starting to learn Nutanix Disaster Recovery; it has been straightforward. I would recommend Nutanix Disaster Recovery as there are no issues, and I ensure to explain everything regarding application safety and functionality to the application owners. On a scale of one to ten, I rate Nutanix Disaster Recovery an eight out of ten.

Real-time synchronization optimizes disaster recovery processes with minimal manual intervention

As for the drawbacks or downsides, there is currently no room for improvement in this solution. They have clearly mentioned that on the licensing part. If you select a normal starter license, then you have to give the RTO, RPO two hours. Apart from this, we can deliver real-time 15 minutes. In future updates, there is currently no feature I would like to see in the product. We already discussed with the technical team and product engineering team because I'm a part of the partner technical advisory board of Nutanix. Monthly and weekly, we connect with them for the product features map.
