Our primary use cases involve Dell RecoverPoint and Site Recovery Manager for disaster recovery purposes. We use Dell RecoverPoint specifically for shared clusters and continuous data protection, such as when there's a shared disk between two virtual machines that cannot be replicated using SRM.

Most replication products focus solely on replicating block data from production to your disaster recovery (DR) site. RecoverPoint's advantage is snapshots. You can recover data from up to ten minutes or ten hours ago on your DR side. For example, if your production site data is corrupted, the replicated data on the DR side is also unusable. You need a good backup of the production environment. RecoverPoint's snapshots allow you to restore or view the image on either the DR or production side if data is compromised. I've used both Dell RecoverPoint and Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines. During the first phase, I used the RecoverPoint appliance, a physical hardware appliance by Dell EMC. Later, I used RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines in a smaller capacity. I recommend it to clients as well.
We are utilizing Dell RecoverPoint for replicating data between our Dell EMC Unity 400H and VNX 2250 storage arrays for the purpose of disaster recovery.

Our organization is a service order company. We install latency systems for our end customers. We use RecoverPoint on the front customer side as a solution to restore their server. The solution replicates the production data for our customer. It is geographically specific from one location to another.
We use RecoverPoint for disaster recovery and asynchronous replication, and we use the application at a block level, not the software level. This has been tested, and it's very durable. We mainly use RecoverPoint because we have different models. The standard storage block is EMC VNX5800, and the other is Unity 300. We need middleware to replicate between these two SAN storage devices, so we use RecoverPoint from Dell EMC. If they were from the same company, we could use the native software. For example, if we were replicating from Unity to Unity, we wouldn't need RecoverPoint.
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.

Our customers are using this solution. We basically use the solution for DR, Disaster Recovery.
It can replicate data from a distant location and it can scan it as well. It has continuous data replication with almost no data loss.
