While I recommend Dell EMC, it depends on your specific use case. Licensing is perpetual, meaning you buy it once. For example, you have 100 terabytes (TB) of data but only need to replicate 10 TB of critical transactional data. You purchase a license to replicate only that 10 TB. I wouldn't recommend replicating the full 100 TB – focus on the most critical data. Consider what your replication requirements are in terms of TBs, GBs, or MBs.

Most of our customers purchase three to five-year professional licenses. Support is an additional subscription. I would rate the pricing of this solution a three out of five.
We bought a three-year license for RecoverPoint. It was bundled with the Unity 300 storage, and they cost almost $40,000 combined. The software has a perpetual license, but the issue is support. That's where it costs.
The solution isn't too expensive. There are no other fees above licensing. Once you buy the license, because the license is attached to the storage that you are replicating, it's a one-off price.
Dell RecoverPoint provides continuous data protection with multiple recovery points to restore applications instantly to a specific point in time. It is used to protect applications with bidirectional synchronous and asynchronous replication and digital video recorder (DVR)-like recovery in physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures.
