The only thing I would say is demo it out for yourself, see how easy it is to implement, do a failover from your production or your development, and failover to the appliance to see how seamless that seems to work out. It'll pretty much sell itself for the most part. The only real downside is that the recovery process requires you to shut down the actual resource while you're doing the restore. There's a couple of other competitors out there that allow you to restore online while it's up and running. I do know that that's in that pipeline, but, in most cases, most backup solutions when you have to recover from a disaster, the resource is offline during that recovery anyway, so it's not like it's a black eye on the product. To make that last little step so much better would be to have that replication and recovery in the background with the Delta sync before switch would be almost ideal. Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give this solution a rating of nine.
