Zerto for disaster recovery
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We used Zerto for disaster recovery and it is very easy to use. The fail over process is easy as well as the fail back process. Very busy SQL servers can sometimes will be a difficult to keep in sync, but following Zerto's best practice guide will help with these issues.
