We performed a comparison between Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines and Veeam Backup & Replication based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery (DR) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."One of the standout features of Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines is its real-time data protection capability."
"Point-in-time recovery and ease of deployment are valuable."
"The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes."
"The installation is straightforward if the version you have is compatible with your infrastructure."
"Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature. Its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable."
"It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."
"The workload can be moved directly if the disaster site is the main site."
"RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast."
"The backup and replication features of this solution are most valuable."
"One thing we like about the product is that it's good and not as expensive as similar products. Right now, there are different ways to back up your information—you can back up directly to a disk or the cloud. It allows you to have various kinds of repositories."
"Veeam Backup Replication's snapshotting and cloning are the most valuable features."
"Veeam Backup & Replication is a scalable solution."
"It integrates easily with third-party solutions compared to other vendors."
"The solution's best features are its ease of use and replication."
"I'm pleased with the ability to search for documents; it's very useful."
"The most valuable features of Veeam Backup Replication are efficient backup and replication. Additionally, Veeam Backup Replication supports all products and vendors."
"It should have features for recovering a group of virtual machines and full-scale security. For recovering all the VMs at once, they don't have a GUI option, and we have to use the command line."
"I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment."
"It would be good to have a critical application on the customer side."
"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."
"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."
"It can have better integration. It would be good if, in addition to VMware VM, it can also support other hypervisors. I also want to see support for Oracle databases. As of now, it supports only SQL and Exchange. It would be good to also support other databases."
"I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release."
"The remote SQL server has had multiple sizing issues within the logs and SQL backup space and sharing with other database apps."
"The virtual sandboxes seem complex to setup, so I have not invested time in leveraging this feature. It would be nice if this feature was more user-friendly."
"There needs to be more integration with VMware and the virtual machine."
"I would like to see more broad support for other applications such as databases, or other operating systems."
"Veeam needs to have more support for non-Windows systems and other databases. For example, I can do SQL with Veeam but not Informix or Oracle. This is unfortunate because we have many partners with Oracle systems and Informix databases, and Veeam does not yet have the agents we need for specific Oracle and UNIX operating systems."
"The replication process is very slow. It takes too long to replicate a virtual machine."
"There is always some room for improvement, especially with some of the different technologies such as DB2. Commvault has a DB2 agent, but Veeam still doesn't have it. We have to use the universal one for it."
"I would like to have the capability of backing up a physical machine, as opposed to just a VM."
