We performed a comparison between SAP NetWeaver and Zerto based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Oracle, SAP, Aurea and others in SOA Governance."The human capital management module is valuable."
"With SAP, you can trust what it tells you."
"We can use different transaction codes to check the performance of the system, and if we are unable to access a particular transaction, we can still check the table to see what is happening."
"The flexibility and the customizability this solution has when adapting to our business requirements is a huge benefit."
"What's most valuable in SAP NetWeaver is the integration. That's been very helpful because the company has one thousand five hundred interfaces running, so integration has been the most significant factor. I've also seen many improvements in the SAP NetWeaver user experience, where users can have reports delivered to mobile devices."
"The solution is scalable."
"Finance and distribution are the most important features."
"The integration feature is valuable."
"The migration and ease of use are valuable. It is easy to set up and easy to flip. We just need to click on Move."
"With Zerto, we were able to replicate our virtual servers to a remote DR site across a WAN connection."
"It is convenient to use because the API allows for seamless integration when performing our day-to-day operations."
"Zerto's user-friendliness is valuable."
"The granularity enables us to failover specific workloads instead of an all-or-nothing type of scenario, where you have to move your entire IP block and your data center, or you have to move large chunks of VMs. Those situations also make it prohibitive to test effectively."
"The ease of use is one of the most valuable features when it comes to making changes and configuring. It's very easy to set up and configure. It's a great product."
"It's one of the easiest products out there, as far as managing and using it go. The UI is pretty dead simple."
"Some of the most valuable features are the synchronous replication and migration with RDMs. I really like the conversion of RDM VMs for migration."
"The solution needs to better integrate Salesforce. It is a key player in the market and a lot of companies are looking for a lot more integration around it."
"It can always improve. It should have the ability to connect with other databases. It was a little bit tough to do that. I would like to have the ability to research certain markets and then integrate it with NetWeaver. I'd like to compare it with other databases from other companies being used in the world so we can integrate it with our own products to compare if we are still current on the market."
"Though SAP NetWeaver has been pretty stable and mature, some issues arose after some customizations, so that's an area for improvement."
"It needs more improvement in terms of user-friendliness. SAP wasn't user-friendly at all."
"SAP isn't particularly user-friendly and you have to develop a long list of favorites to be able to get around."
"Scalability would be a good improvement in future releases, if they do release future versions. They tried to create a seamless style, but it's not necessarily scalable to big development environments that we're trying to achieve."
"Has become somewhat unstable recently."
"The initial setup was not very easy."
"The number-one area in which they need to improve their product is what I would call "automatic self-healing." This is related to running them at scale... We have 1,000 VRAs and if any one of their VRAs has a problem, goes offline, all of the customer protection groups and all of the customers that are tied to that VRA are not replicating at all. That means the RPO is slipping until somebody makes a manual effort to fix the issue. It has become a full-time job at my company for somebody to keep Zerto running all the time, everywhere, and to keep all the customers up and going."
"It would be great if Zerto could automate replication more."
"We have had issues with licensing, where the license we've been given by Zerto support doesn't include VSS replication, which was a pain at the time."
"Zerto needs to improve its support for VMware Lifecycle Manager."
"They are not cheap. They are more expensive than others."
"The alerting doesn't quite give you the information about what exactly is going on when an issue comes up. We do get alerts inside of our vCenter, but it doesn't quite give you accurate information inside the plugin to be able to tell us what's going on without having to go into the actual Zerto application and figuring out what's causing the issue."
"It would be beneficial if Zerto also offered integration with other cloud management platforms, such as VMware Aria Automation."
"I would rate them an eight out of ten because not every response is as we expect. They do resolve the issue, but sometimes customers have unusual questions, and they are not able to say how exactly to fix that or how to do something,."
