I use HPE Zerto Software for planning disaster recovery and for provisioning the CIs, especially during the exercise phase. We use HPE Zerto Software to protect VMs in our environment. Regarding HPE Zerto Software for disaster recovery, minor challenges exist, but it meets the requirement at approximately 80%. We do not look into HPE Zerto Software for incident downtimes; we only use it for crisis situations. HPE Zerto Software is saving time, especially with RTOs and RPOs being reduced for business-level applications, which has brought down recovery time. Most often, support issues are handled internally; if we require anything, we raise a case, and the operational team follows up.

One advantage of HPE Zerto Software is that it helps in provisioning, becomes easy, much faster, and it also stores historical information. It's good; I won't say it's excellent, but it's meeting some requirements, though for other requirements, I have to rely on other software as well.

There has been a significant impact from using HPE Zerto Software because our provisioning times have reduced drastically. The time to complete the exercises has come down, and we were able to identify and cross-check the RTO and RPO values as well. Using HPE Zerto Software has helped us in reducing the RTO and RPO values.

Overall, it still requires reliance on other software for manual work such as cross-checking and validations, which takes additional time, but the runbook execution is quicker. The 20% challenges relate to reliance on other software for cross-checking the logs. After implementation, the recovery times have improved by approximately 50% to 60%.

The main improvements needed are related to historical data comparison and analytics, and the challenges involve reliance on other software and cross-checking logs. If we could have an end-to-end DR solution in one environment, it would be much easier without relying on multiple tools. The biggest area for improvement in HPE Zerto Software is probably in historical data comparison and enhanced analytics. Future features should reduce reliance on cross-checking logs and other solutions.

I have been using HPE Zerto Software for three years now.

I find HPE Zerto Software relatively stable.

HPE Zerto Software is also scalable.

I haven't checked the technical support part for HPE Zerto Software; I need to talk to my team about it. Most often, support issues are handled internally; if we require anything, we raise a case, and the operational team follows up.

Regarding ease of use and recovery speed, I recall IBM being used previously, but I wasn't there then, so I didn't get a chance to compare HPE Zerto Software with that. I think HPE Zerto Software was better compared to IBM, as the RTOs and RPOs are improving continuously, with the ability to execute exercises becoming quicker.

I haven't looked into options apart from HPE Zerto Software yet, but before the license renewal, we shall start that activity within six months. We typically refer to Gartner's quadrant to identify market leaders for comparison, focusing on the leaders part. There are no specific security examples that made me decide to switch solutions; my main concerns are around costing and compatibility with different environments.

Currently, our team has implemented another solution because HPE Zerto Software couldn't be expanded to that environment, so capability is a restricting factor. A unified solution would be a good bet for future comparisons.

HPE Zerto Software helps in provisioning, making it easy and faster, and it also stores historical information. It's good but not excellent, as it meets some requirements while requiring other software for additional functionalities. I use a solution for disaster recovery in the cloud, but that's specific to the cloud environment. I don't get into the pricing layer for HPE Zerto Software and haven't gathered much information from the vendor. I would rate HPE Zerto Software as 8 out of 10.

My main use case for HPE Zerto Software is to move VMs from one place to another. We implemented HPE Zerto Software to solve the challenge of moving workloads from on-premises to the cloud.

I would assess the ease of use of HPE Zerto Software as straightforward. It is easy to use, and the user interface is excellent. When using HPE Zerto Software for VM migrations from on-premises to the cloud, it provides valuable features and transfers them quickly, so users do not need to spend much time on it.

My impressions of HPE Zerto Software's near-synchronous replication are that it is seamless. Near-synchronous replication is important to my organization because it takes less time to migrate the workload, which is what we are looking for, along with it being faster and having no complexity, making the migration 100% successful.

HPE Zerto Software has improved our RPO and RTO. Earlier, our RPO and RTO were based on the application tier, but now they have been reduced significantly, so we appreciate this product.

I think HPE Zerto Software is excellent, and I don't see any issues with it, so I don't know if anything needs to be improved. I don't have any suggestions for additional features I would to see included in the next release of HPE Zerto Software.

I have been using HPE Zerto Software for almost five years now.

I would assess the stability and reliability of HPE Zerto Software as good, and I cannot say anything negative about it. I have not experienced any downtime, crashes, or performance issues with HPE Zerto Software, as we have high availability.

HPE Zerto Software scales with the growing needs of my organization effectively, and I cannot complain about anything. We have expanded usage of HPE Zerto Software, and the process was smooth, as we have a descriptive runbook on how to use it, so the team uses it efficiently.

I evaluate customer service and technical support for HPE Zerto Software as excellent, as whenever we have any issues, we reach out to customer support, and they provide the support we need. 

On a scale from one to 10, I would rate customer service for HPE Zerto Software as nine because the response time is quick, and the technical knowledge of the associates is excellent.

Positive

Prior to adopting HPE Zerto Software, I was not using another solution to address similar needs. Before selecting HPE Zerto Software, we were doing it manually, so there was no other product we evaluated.

HPE Zerto Software helped to reduce our organization's DR testing.

I have seen a return on investment with HPE Zerto Software.

Regarding my experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing, I think on the pricing side, I don't generally deal with it, but from what I hear from my finance team, it's somewhat on the higher side. If licensing could be reduced, that would be beneficial.

My advice to other organizations considering HPE Zerto Software is that they should try it first and evaluate it based on the feature set before making a decision, as I think they will appreciate HPE Zerto Software. I rate HPE Zerto Software 10 out of 10.

Currently, my main use case for HPE Zerto Software is for failover. We have a site in Salt Lake City and another data center in Oregon. We fail over from this site to that site, verify, and fail things back. This is its main purpose as of today.

The feature of HPE Zerto Software that I appreciate the most is the ability to pick and choose what to fail over and when to failover. It is really easy to build a new zone and add servers, as well as remove them.

An example of how the features of HPE Zerto Software have benefited my organization was when we lost a circuit. We have a primary circuit from Salt Lake over to Portland and a backup one that runs through several different sites. We actually lost the main one and had to failover. Because most of the servers are in Salt Lake City, we had to replicate those back over to Portland because that is where they make the money. I had a few minor hiccups, but it was not our fault. It was just bandwidth, but we now have a larger pipe. That was a happy accident when we discovered why it was not going any faster - we were maxed out.

I find HPE Zerto Software to be pretty intuitive as it is, and I have nothing to suggest for improvement.

I have been using HPE Zerto Software for about four years now.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate the stability and reliability of HPE Zerto Software at about 20. It just works.

HPE Zerto Software scales with the growing needs of my organization. The only issue I have ever encountered was when our developers grew busy and expanded their applications too quickly for licensing. That was resolved with a simple phone call. We received the new key by end of day after discussing how many additional licenses were needed.

I would evaluate customer service and technical support for HPE Zerto Software as exceptional. They listen first, then ensure they understand the problem before providing multiple solution alternatives. Having been in computing for almost 35 years, they are one of probably two or three companies that truly listen first.

I was using another solution to address similar needs prior to adopting HPE Zerto Software, but I am not sure what it was.

My experience with pricing, setup, costs, and licensing for HPE Zerto Software has been positive. The installers were knowledgeable and completed the installation correctly the first time. When we upgraded from VMware 6 to version 7, we needed to install a new agent. When it did not work initially, technical support quickly resolved the issue with specific instructions in just one call.

I have seen an ROI with HPE Zerto Software through faster recovery. We are getting closer to the five nines. Having the confidence that if something happens, our documented steps will work is invaluable.

I have personally used Veeam before selecting HPE Zerto Software, but having only been with the company for five years, I am not sure what solutions were used before that.

HPE Zerto Software is important to my organization because when performing replication, both systems remain functional during failover until the final switch. This results in virtually no downtime.

HPE Zerto Software has helped reduce downtime by at least 25% through faster recovery. For instance, if we lose an image, we can quickly recover it and power the VM back on, which is much better than retrieving a golden image that could take hours.

The solution has impacted my RTOs and RPOs significantly, saving me approximately two hours per day. It has also reduced our DR testing frequency from every other month to twice a year.

Regarding Cyber Vault solutions, the most important capability would be the ability to isolate a server immediately after a ransomware attack to investigate the incident.

My advice to other organizations considering HPE Zerto Software is to consider its ease of integration. It integrates seamlessly with various networks and works especially with HP infrastructure. The support from both HP and HPE Zerto Software teams is excellent.

I rate HPE Zerto Software 10 out of 10.

My main use cases for HPE Zerto Software are for DR failover and recovery.

HPE Zerto Software benefited my organization as it allows us to test changes without impacting production.

The features of HPE Zerto Software that I appreciate the most include being able to recover VMs, change the target, and either deploy the VM with the same IP address or a different IP address on different networks for a digital twin.

My impressions of HPE Zerto's near-synchronous replication are impressive, and this feature is particularly important to us. Unfortunately, we're not a HPE Zerto Software customer anymore, but I've been actively trying to push for us to get it again. 

The solution has saved me time in data recovery situations due to data corruption scenarios, though not specifically for ransomware. 

The solution has helped reduce downtime by approximately 10 hours. I cannot specify how much that amount of downtime would have cost my organization since we were a managed service provider managing HPE Zerto Software for their company. 

HPE Zerto Software has significantly lowered our time to recovery. It performs better than other recovery solutions I've used, including Veeam and the native VMware solution, which I found inadequate. 

It has helped reduce our DR testing by about two hours. I am not currently using a cyber vault solution or immutable data copies to ensure recovery from a cyber threat. We have discontinued using HPE Zerto Software. 

I don't know how HPE Zerto Software can be improved; I think it's pretty great. If it can recover VMs or infrastructure into public clouds or vice versa, that would be awesome. 

One potential improvement for the future would be competitive pricing with Veeam.

I have been using HPE Zerto Software for three years.

I have not experienced any downtime, crashes, or performance issues with HPE Zerto Software.

HPE Zerto Software scaled effectively with the growing needs of my organization. The multi-tenancy capabilities were beneficial since we were a managed service provider and could resell that to our customers.

I would evaluate customer service and technical support as exceptional, though I never needed to engage them. On a scale of one to 10, I would rate them as a 10, though I never really interacted with them.

Positive

Before selecting HPE Zerto Software, we were using Veeam and the VMware equivalent simultaneously. We ultimately chose HPE Zerto Software because we were unhappy with the other products we were using.

My experience with deploying HPE Zerto Software was that it was pretty straightforward and easy to deploy.

I would say I have seen a return on investment with HPE Zerto Software.

Before selecting HPE Zerto Software, we were using Veeam and the VMware equivalent. We chose HPE Zerto Software because we were dissatisfied with other products.

On a scale of 1-10, I rate this solution a 10.

My advice to other organizations considering HPE Zerto Software is that it would be unwise not to purchase it.

My main use case for using the HPE Zerto Software is disaster recovery.

The ability to fail workloads over between data centers has benefited my organization significantly. HPE Zerto Software's continuous data replication is very important to my organization.

The features I appreciate the most about HPE Zerto Software are the automated failover and orchestration, and then the journal for point-in-time recovery. 

I don't use HPE Zerto Software directly; it's used by my team, however, they're very complimentary of it.

It's easy to use and does what it says.

HPE Zerto Software has impacted my RTOs or RPOs, and the recovery speed has improved significantly compared to other disaster recovery solutions I've used; it's been really good. An example is that our snapshots were only every 15 minutes, but with HPE Zerto Software replication, our recovery times are in seconds, not minutes.

The solution has helped to reduce my organization's DR testing. I do not know by how much. We haven't reallocated the time saved to other tasks; it just allows us to do more DR testing and recovery, enabling us to go faster in that space.

I am currently using a cyber vault solution for immutable data copies to ensure recovery from a cyberattack. We have multiple solutions: we use Commvault, Cloud MRR, and we also use safe mode on all of our pure storage. When considering a cyber vault solution, cost is probably the most important factor first, and then simplicity to implement.

To improve HPE Zerto Software, I would suggest that the upgrade process is a little bit average and challenging at the moment, rather than necessarily adding features.

I have been using the HPE Zerto Software for two and a half years.

I assess the stability and reliability of HPE Zerto Software as being fine. I only had one small issue a while ago, and that was fixed eventually; it was just one small issue. It didn't cause an outage.

To date, HPE Zerto Software has scaled fine for the growing needs of my organization. I have expanded usage. The expansion process was very smooth.

I evaluate the technical support for HPE Zerto Software as okay, about average. On a scale of one to ten for technical support/customer service, I would give them a seven.

Prior to adopting HPE Zerto Software, I was using another solution that addresses similar needs: storage replication. The factor that led me to consider a change was capability.

We didn't really go through an evaluation process, so I can't elaborate on what stood out in that regard.

We used a partner to support us, and it took us a while to get it working. Now it's embedded and it's working.

I have not seen a return on investment with HPE Zerto Software, and nothing specific comes to mind.

My experience with the pricing, setup costs, and licensing has been fine.

Before selecting HPE Zerto Software, I considered just standard backup solutions.

My advice to another organization considering using HPE Zerto Software is to go for it. 

Overall, I would rate HPE Zerto Software a nine out of ten.

My main use cases for HPE Zerto Software are disaster recovery and replication.

The features of HPE Zerto Software that I enjoy the most are the ease of setting up the protection groups and the ease of doing testing, such as failover tests. 

The near-synchronous replication is crucial as we don't want any data loss, which is critical.

The quick setup of disaster recovery environments helps streamline our DR testing.

HPE Zerto Software has reduced both my RTOs and RPOs. Its recovery speed is much faster than other disaster recovery solutions and much easier to use. I can recover one of our tier zero SQL servers and have it up and running in under ten minutes. If I were using one of our backup products, that would take hours.

It has helped to reduce the time it takes for our organization's DR testing, reducing it by days. The big benefit is that I can set up that environment and people can test, but if something happened and we needed to redeploy that environment, it's very quick and easy. It has reduced the overall time for the DR testing, including the testing process to make sure the applications are working.

HPE Zerto Software, as far as the replication, had near-synchronous replication, which made our RPOs better. It was easier to use, easier to recover from, so it was far superior for that purpose. Prior to adopting HPE Zerto Software, we were using our backup system to test DR.

I don't have any recommendations regarding how HPE Zerto Software can be improved or what additional features should be included in the next release.

I have been using HPE Zerto Software for a year and a half, about 18 months.

I have experienced issues with downtime, crashes, and performance with HPE Zerto Software. When we first deployed it, we were replicating to AVS, and we've done DR tests where we've left that test environment running for a significant period and had issues with the amount of storage space it was using. Sometimes the VMs become unstable when they're running too long.

HPE Zerto Software scales well with the growing needs of my organization because we haven't had any issues there.

I would evaluate customer service and technical support for HPE Zerto Software as good. Any case I've opened, they've been very responsive. I would give them a ten out of ten. They're very responsive and knowledgeable. They've helped me with all my issues.

I found the deployment to be easy.

My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing for HPE Zerto Software was great. It was not overly expensive, and deployment was easy. 

Before selecting HPE Zerto Software, I considered Rubrik, which has orchestrated recovery plans, and we've tried using those. HPE Zerto Software was much easier to use.

The solution has not helped to reduce downtime in any situations. 

The advice I would give to other organizations considering HPE Zerto Software is to do it. If you need a good recovery product, HPE Zerto Software is fantastic. 

I rate HPE Zerto Software a nine out of ten.

We use HPE Zerto Software for disaster recovery, resiliency, and peace of mind.

It provides peace of mind, it allows us to feel confident knowing that the data protection platform is in-place and allows for rapid recovery in the event of data integrity failures, or platform disruptions.

The contextual help and simulation of HPE Zerto Software are the most valuable features. HPE Zerto Software's continuous data protection or CDP is critical for our organization because it allows us to recover within seconds to minutes, and the journal allows us to pick a point-in-time recovery. The journal allows us to recover from a point in time before an event occurred.

I cannot think of any ways HPE Zerto Software needs improvement, as I have used it at a previous company as well, and it is a reputably reliable platform.

I have been using HPE Zerto Software for over several years.

I have not experienced any downtime, crashes, or performance issues with HPE Zerto Software; it is a reliable platform and it is very well-engineered.

HPE Zerto Software scales with the growing needs of our organization.

HPE Zerto Software's customer service and technical support have been fantastic.

Positive

We used Veeam as our previous solution and we switched to HPE Zerto Software to ensure that we had a mutable backup, as well as synchronous replication.

I don't perform setup and initial configuration, another team does that.

That amount of downtime would cost our organization in the millions.

I don't operate in this vein of the business.

Veeam, Rubrik, ASR.

HPE Zerto Software's recovery speed is very fast and reliable compared to the disaster recovery solution we used before. I would rate HPE Zerto Software overall as a ten; it is a fantastic product.

My main use cases for HPE Zerto Software involve active-passive application setups since I can't do an active-active; we do a standby and use Zerto to replicate that across to an alternate data center to practice as a DR. 

I practice it to migrate to new IPs as needed and things like that. I haven't experienced any ransomware issues yet, so I haven't had to use HPE Zerto Software in a data recovery situation. It wasn't applicable for our exercises against the CrowdStrike failure that impacted the entire world, however, we recovered from that in different ways. The only time we've actually had to use this as a DR event was during practice; we haven't had to use it as active DR since we have active-active solutions that rely on global traffic managers. 

The data is already in place; they just open up to see it in a different environment. So we haven't had to use it as DR, but in our DR practice, it has been working very effectively.

An example of how the replication feature has benefited my organization is when we were migrating from a legacy stack of hardware to a new stack using HPE Zerto Software. We were able to move hundreds of VMs at a time during a change window because the replication had already moved the data there; we just needed to cut over the active workload. It was as simple as turning it off, migrating, and turning it back on in a new space, which enabled us to run 200 plus applications in each change window during our migration from a 16-month deployment down to a three-month deployment.

The most valuable aspect of HPE Zerto Software is that it solves an impossible solution that VMware did not. We previously used a storage-based replication tool and coordinated with SRM for the cutover. That storage tool was no longer available when we started using VSAN. We no longer have a Fibre Channel system in the mix and were used to getting kind of DVR level, rolling it back to a millisecond to write-by-write level of recovery. VMware didn't have that available to us in vSphere replication, leaving us with a 10-minute choice while we needed sub-one minute. Zerto provides us with a seven-to-eight-second RTO and which allows us to meet the needs of our application teams with very sensitive applications.

The feature I appreciate the most about HPE Zerto Software is its fantastic replication and advanced problem-solving capabilities. We use it for both migration and DR.

It's easy to use; my POC took half a day to set up.

Zerto's near synchronous replication works very, very well. 

I hesitate to offer improvements for HPE Zerto Software since I appreciate it so much; the user interface is good, and the actual data under the hood is good. It keeps working, it's fast. 

However, it could benefit from tighter integration with VMware. They have a head start on proving that the new version will work. When cybersecurity events happen and we have a new release that we need to deploy quickly, they have a 90-day window to remediate that, but I need to deploy it before them, and I can't.

I've been using HPE Zerto Software for about two years.

I assess the stability and reliability of HPE Zerto Software as 100%.

HPE Zerto Software has been able to scale with our growing needs, and I've been happy with how it's been scaling; it's been smooth. The scaling has been smooth and satisfactory.

Customer support has always responded well when we have a problem, although that has gotten a little bit less since HPE purchased it. It was a bit better when it was Zerto before the acquisition; we get into the main queue more often now, but we can escalate very quickly.

Prior to adopting HPE Zerto Software, I used a combination solution with vSphere Replication and SRM alongside a Fibre Channel solution from EMC called the Virtual Replication Appliance. It had really good RTO, which we were trying to match with our new infrastructure, and the only solution we found to meet that need was HPE Zerto Software.

I would describe my experience with the deployment of HPE Zerto Software as very smooth and very easy.

It's hard to say if I've seen a return on investment; we haven't had anything break yet, so quantifying a return on investment for insurance is quite difficult. We have a solution that's ready to play, and we hope we never have to use it, similar to buying insurance on a house—you don't want to find out if it truly has to pay.

The setup cost for HPE Zerto Software was very favorable, and pricing wasn't much of an issue since it was the only choice available.

Before selecting HPE Zerto Software, the only other solution we considered was vSphere Replication with SRM; that was the only one that fit into our environment, and I don't care what its new name is since we're not using it.

Having a solid solution like HPE Zerto Software means we can effectively solve our DR problem. We can't reduce our DR testing since all our vital apps do it twice a year, and the less vital ones do it once a year. 

I am currently using a Cyber Vault solution or immutable data copies to ensure recovery from a cyber threat, integrated with the backup solution we have today, which is a Cohesity product they call Fort Knox. The approach for that is in the storage department's domain, and I leave them to do their own business. 

The most important capabilities for me when choosing a Cyber Vault solution would again be continuity, even though this is outside my scope. 

HPE Zerto Software hasn't yet reduced our downtime in any situation; we haven't had an event where it would be helpful. We've built in suspenders kind of things. We are managed service providers and use HPE Zerto Software on-prem with a private setup. We're not using any cloud providers for that; we have a cloud-at-customer solution.

Overall, I assess HPE Zerto Software as a product and would give it about a nine out of ten.

My main use cases for HPE Zerto Software include disaster recovery and data protection for our critical applications.

We built two data centers and needed to migrate our workload from one to the other and vice versa. We needed to do that with as little downtime as possible. We purchased migration licenses and it went so smoothly - with just seconds of downtime - that we decided to stick with them for DR.

By implementing HPE Zerto Software, my organization was trying to solve challenges relating to minimizing downtime and ensuring data integrity during unexpected outages. This solution has saved me time in data recovery situations due to ransomware and other causes, allowing for quick restoration of services.

Since implementing, we haven't had any failures, however, the testing features have provided great peace of mind. 

The features of HPE Zerto Software that I appreciate the most include continuous data protection and the flexibility it provides for cloud integrations. I can provide examples of how the features have benefited my organization, such as significantly reducing our recovery time during incidents.

The built-in testing features are great. Everything is really easy to use. 

The failover feature is great for getting VMs up and running at a secondary site. 

The journaling feature allows us to go back five or ten seconds back in time. It's really helpful. We can just go back to that last snapshot and not lose anything. 

It has helped to reduce downtime in situations, especially migration. It's providing us with a seamless recovery process. It has saved us countless hours of downtime, translating to significant cost savings. You don't want the end users knowing you are even doing anything, and we can achieve that.

HPE Zerto Software has positively impacted our RTOs and RPOs by improving our recovery objectives and ensuring data is always available. Other than migration, we haven't had the need for it. 

The solution has helped with my organization's disaster recovery testing process. You can just click a button and do a test instead of doing anything in production. 

I don't have any idea of areas fro improvement.

I have been using HPE Zerto Software for approximately a year now.

I would assess the stability and reliability of HPE Zerto Software as excellent, as it performs consistently under different conditions. We rarely get alerts or notifications.

HPE Zerto Software scales very efficiently with the growing needs of my organization, adapting easily as our data volume increases. I have expanded my usage of HPE Zerto Software to cover more applications and databases. That expansion has been incredibly smooth. We're looking to expand more.

I haven't had to engage with technical support.

Prior to adopting HPE Zerto Software, I was using another solution. 

I would describe my experience deploying HPE Zerto Software as really easy; the process was straightforward. When we originally implemented it a year and a half ago, we still deployed on a Windows VM. Now, the have a VM appliance, and we're looking to migrate to that soon.

I have seen an ROI with HPE Zerto Software. The migration was huge. It saved us a lot of time. 

My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing has been satisfactory. The impression the software gave us is that it's easy to use. We're not a heavy user so we just bought a 25-pack. 

Before selecting HPE Zerto Software, I considered other solutions such as VMware and Commvault for our backup and recovery needs. What stood out in my evaluation process was HPE Zerto Software's simplicity and ease of use.

My advice for other organizations considering HPE Zerto Software would be to thoroughly evaluate your needs and understand how its features can benefit your operations. 

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate HPE Zerto Software a strong nine for its overall performance and service.

HPE Zerto Software is basically used for site replication.

We needed increased uptime and resilience, and Zerto helped with that. 

The features of HPE Zerto Software have benefited our organization by increasing our recovery rate on systems that have a tight recovery RPO, and it's also allowing us to migrate workloads from VMware to Hyper-V in a seamless fashion.

The replication aspect of HPE Zerto Software is what I appreciate the most, but we also appreciate the conversion feature. We're moving from VMware to Hyper-V. 

It's easy to use. It's point-and-click and very logical. 

The near-synchronous replication is very good. We have some applications that are single-site only that do have a really high RPO. With synchronous replication, if we do experience a fault, we can bring it up on the other side on our other data center and also have a point in time recovery.

We have saved time in a data recovery situation. We had misconfiguration and we were able to bring the system back up on our redundant data center in about ten minutes. It would have taken about five hours and lost about 24 hours of otherwise with tranditional recovery.

We've reduced downtime by about 24 hours. That would have cost several thousand to several hundred thousand dollars. 

It's increased RPO and RTO recovery times due to synchronization rates that are selectable. It's impressive compared to other solutions such as traditional Avamar, TSM, or Commvault backups. Those take anywhere from five to ten hours to recover systems. Avamar is literally minutes.

I definitely would like to see the continuation of the migration capability to Hyper-V included in the next release of HPE Zerto Software, as well as adding migration capabilities to other hypervisors, such as Nutanix Acropolis.

We've been using HPE Zerto Software for five years.

I have not experienced any downtime, crashes, or performance issues with HPE Zerto Software.

HPE Zerto Software scales with the growing needs of our organization.

I evaluate customer service and technical support for HPE Zerto Software very highly; every question we've had has been answered promptly and first-time resolution is very high.

Prior to adopting HPE Zerto Software, we were using Veeam. We were looking at and actually using Veeam, and we were using Avamar before selecting HPE Zerto Software.

My experience with deploying HPE Zerto Software is very straightforward and easy to deploy.

We're using Commvault and Dell Cyber Vault as our solution approach.

I think we have seen a return on investment with HPE Zerto Software.

My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing for HPE Zerto Software has been very positive.

I've not had any complaints about HPE Zerto Software's functionality. 

My advice to other organizations considering HPE Zerto Software is that it is definitely a far cheaper solution than using array-based replication, and it's one of the most stable software deployments that we've done that runs in a Windows environment. 

On a scale of one to ten, I rate HPE Zerto Software a ten.
