    Chose Zerto on IBM Cloud
    We had prior experience with Zerto and we were very happy with how it worked. Rubrik is also a very good product, but we wanted to go with the solution we were most familiar with. Zerto combined with IBM Cloud is a reliable combo that we feel works together well in addressing …

    Chose Zerto on IBM Cloud
    Zerto was simpler and faster when it came to a large data repository that needs backup, replication, and restoration. Even though it was slightly more expensive, the functionality and features of Zerto drove us to go with it.

    Zerto on IBM Cloud is great to get your datacenter redundant and highly available. It overcomes geographic contingencies and makes your production environment reliably flexible. If you do not like the added cost of redundancy or cost of cloud services, this inconvenient fee may not fit you well. But you'd be better off in the long run to have Zerto protecting your bottom line despite the cost.

    Cons
    IBM
    • Enable the ability to use IBM Cloud Object Storage as a target for Zerto's long-term retention feature.
    • Easier access to the underlying VMware infrastructure would be nice. Right now we have to connect to IBM's VPN and use other tools to do some infrastructure management tasks.
    • More insight into the IBM-side VMware environment that we replicate to (i.e. ability to see available IPs, etc). Most of that is managed by IBM.

    Return on Investment
    IBM
    • Positive is the option of bringing your own license.
    • Negative - the complex environments are not supported.
    • This cannot be used as a backup replacement rather DR tool.
