Currently, Azure Site Recovery does not support shared disk options. Moreover, it does not support services like AppConfig or App Services. Integrating these services would make the solution more accessible for any company.
It can incorporate features related to monitoring the site to streamline the process. Personally, I often use automation for efficiency. This reduces dependency on support for those solutions, especially in scenarios involving disaster recovery. Currently, we lack a straightforward method to automate the restart of services, which can be quite time-consuming. Having more APIs would certainly enhance the security and manageability of these solutions.
The product's performance is an area of concern where improvements are required. From an improvement perspective, the solution should provide ease of use to its users and try to be a complete solution to be able to act as a CDP replacement.
One area for improvement with Azure is helping customers predict usage more accurately. It would be great to have tools that provide clearer insights into how our costs might evolve over time. Like a budget forecast that considers potential fluctuations based on usage, helping avoid surprises.
The primary area for improvement in Azure Site Recovery is its pricing. While the service is efficient and successful in handling recovery scenarios, especially for large companies dealing with substantial monthly data, the costs can be a significant consideration. The ease and speed of ASR in recovery are commendable, but addressing the pricing aspect would enhance overall satisfaction.
I conveyed the feedback to the agent, suggesting an increase in the agent count in our VNS in the USA. I also addressed notification concerns, as some issues didn't trigger alerts during a recent call.

It would be good if we could replicate the solution to multiple locations simultaneously because we are currently allowed to replicate to just a single location.

It was easier to configure the server in the older version of Azure Site Recovery. Still, in the newest version, the configuration was a little more complex, so this is an area for improvement in the solution.
It is for site-to-site replication. When something goes wrong on your site, you only get 15 minutes before it also goes wrong on your replicated site. There should be some way to be able to say that we want to restore it, but we want to restore it to the version from yesterday. It should support versioning. I would also like to see real-time scanning for advanced threat protection, more straightforward billing, and quicker turnaround on the tech support.

Improvement could be made on the pricing model. It could be brought in line with the competitive ranges in the market Additional features could include more of a backup and recovery. We'd like to see the AIX operating system added into it. It's more virtual right now.

There have been issues with replication. It would be helpful if error logging was handled more effectively. When it runs, it runs well but when it doesn't run, the solution needs to make it clearer as to why and what the troubleshooting process is. All this would be possible if the error logging was streamlined a bit.

We need to be able to move the virtual servers and not build and then port them across. They need to improve the hypervisor.
