We performed a comparison between Nutanix Disaster Recovery as a Service and VMware SRM 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."The solution is stable."
"The tool's most valuable feature is ease of use."
"It is a very secure and scalable solution, and their support is also outstanding."
"Hyper-convergence gives me the ability to patch my firmware, software, and hypervisors with a single click. That is extremely useful."
"It offers synchronous data replication, allowing us to sync our recovery data every hour and efficiently send applications to remote sites."
"We haven't needed anyone to maintain or deploy the solution. The traditional Nutanix administrator can administer the solution."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the automatic recovery of the virtual machine if it goes down."
"It is a very stable solution...I was involved in VMware SRM's deployment phase two years ago, and it was an easy process."
"My impression is that the initial setup process is relatively straightforward."
"The solution runs well in the background, just in case we need it."
"The UI is very user-friendly and testing is easy."
"It is a stable solution...The solution's technical support is excellent."
"The solution is strong when it comes to protection and analytics, with the latter being added later on."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the integration part, along with the subsequent hardware."
"They need better reporting on the environment."
"For moving the data for DR, we are using Megaport. We are using a Megaport link between the data centers, so we have a third party for the site-to-site connectivity between the data centers. If such connectivity is available from the Nutanix side, it would be helpful for us."
"The solution needs improvement in cost."
"The product is more costly than other platforms. The price could be better."
"I think that Nutanix should support public clouds instead of the Nutanix data centers."
"The pricing could be better."
"It would be better if we could get more reporting features in VMware SRM."
"The administration guides can be complicated and difficult to use, so it would be helpful if it was made easier."
"We've had configuration issues on occasion. We start to fail over, and then we have to call it off because the configuration is not right, or the data stores aren't configured correctly in the secondary data center. Oftentimes, it is just the experience level of the team, and we have to bring in the vendor to help and validate our configuration."
"You cannot use VMware SRM in conjunction with storage replication software."
"An improvement for SRM would be better interface compatibility with other products."
"We have had an issue when some customers have traditional designs and sites. For example, on one another site, they are using hyper-converged, using VMware, or Nutanix. We have a problem with the synchronization between the storage for site to site. This is the main issue. We are adding some other tools to support the synchronization to allow the movement of the workload from site to site easily."
"There are many functionality problems with the product currently. It is also slow and unstable."
"The two vCenters have to be synchronized, which sometimes gives us problems because Keberos does not tolerate more than five minutes in time difference."
