Ease of use, performance, availability, and scalability

The use case is for high availability and disaster recovery I install it in organizations that work 24/7. They need a high-availability solution and a disaster recovery center because they don't want any downtime. I like its ease of use, performance, availability, and scalability. Nothing, it’s…

A decently stable tool that ensures a high return on investment for its users

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.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Disaster Recovery Services is stable."

"The solution works well for very large organizations. It can scale quite well."

"The initial setup is very easy and user-friendly."

"Database replication is most valuable. It is multi-platform, so it can replicate from a variety of different database types to a variety of different database types."

"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward and simple."

Cons

"Disaster Recovery Services could provide better value for money."

"The infrastructure level of IBM's recovery systems could be improved."

"Stability could always be better."

"It does data manipulation language (DML) replication, but it does not do data definition language (DDL) replication. In my opinion, it is a disadvantage. It would be nicer if it was able to do both DML and DDL. I'm not 100% certain of this, but it seems Oracle Golden Gate does both DML and DDL. MIMIX only does DML, and it would be very nice if they included DDL replication. This is one feature that would be very helpful to have."

"The high cost of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of the solution is based on the scale of the project or business. It's based on the server amount and the amount of data being stored. For our client, based on the amount of data they have, it may be around $20,000 USD. It could get much more expensive on the customer side."

"Disaster Recovery Services is expensive."

"The licensing provides the access to support. I do know that there's an annual charge for being able to call into their support line and get a technical team from Precisely to assist with any issues we may have. I don't think there are any additional costs other than what we incur internally in terms of the infrastructure that we need to run and operate the product."

"The cost of the product is too high."
