I use the solution in my company since it offers more flexibility compared to other software that I have worked with, including IBM I Cluster technology, Precisely OMS/ODS, and a little bit at the base level of MIMIXOWN. Precisely Assure MIMIX is a very old tool that I have used several times, and because of that, I feel comfortable using it.
For those companies looking into the products available in the market, I would say that nothing comes close to Precisely Assure MIMIX in terms of the functionalities and the area of usage that the tool provides.
The most valuable features of the solution are auditing and object replication. The tool takes care of the recovery part by allowing our company to use its auto-recovery features.
The high cost of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.
The cost of the product should be reduced a little bit, especially compared to the products offered by the other vendors or competitors in the market.
I have been using Precisely Assure MIMIX for fifteen years. I use Precisely Assure MIMIX V10.
It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.
I have experience with IBM I Cluster technology, Precisely OMS/ODS, and DataMirror in some of my previous organizations. My current organization started off with DataMirror and then switched to Precisely Assure MIMIX later.
The product's initial setup phase was straightforward and simple.
The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.
I have seen a return on investment from the use of the solution in my company, especially in terms of cost, since it helps our company deal with downtime and during a disaster, the product helps us with the switchover process, owing to which such issues did not have an impact on us.
The solution helped our organization save a lot of time by ensuring that my company did not experience any downtime.
The cost of the product is too high.
My current organization is evaluating options like IBM i high availability technologies.
Precisely Assure MIMIX has improved our organization's disaster recovery efforts since my company has multiple LPARs. Precisely Assure MIMIX has around 45 LPARs for the database recovery, and I have one site-to-site replication for one of the servers in our environment, which is really good.
The failover process of Precisely Assure MIMIX has enhanced our company's business continuity planning, considering that we have been testing the failover test area once a year and found out that the area revolving around recovery is good.
When I was having a discussion on one of the online forums meant for Precisely Assure MIMIX around five years ago, which was even before the LAKEVIEW stuff was introduced by Precisely. Through the online forum, the team of Precisely Assure MIMIX helped my company deal with the area related to ServiceNow integration.
I have never faced a scenario where Precisely Assure MIMIX prevented data loss during an unexpected outage in our company.
I would ask those who plan to use the product to evaluate their own environment before purchasing Precisely Assure MIMIX.
I rate the overall tool a nine out of ten.
