The Easy Button for Disaster Recovery
We are using Zerto in our IT Department to ensure our hot site is ready for any disaster that occurs. Currently, we have a list of mission-critical applications that are replicated to our DR site via Zerto. As an Education provider for the state, we host a special education application that needs to be current with 0 loss in case of an outage. Zerto is helping us realize this goal with minimal downtime.

Zerto gives you the best in performance and reliability.
We are using Zerto to replicate our production data from one site to another. 300 plus machines are being protected and seconds latency in RPO between the sites allows us to confidently manage our disaster recovery. We have also used the product to migrate and consolidate from other datacenters to our two main sites. This was done with minimal downtime and effort once the VPGs are established.

Zerto to the rescue
We use Zerto as our disaster recovery tool for our critical tier 0/1 applications and systems. It is used by the whole of our IT Storage and Virtualization team, along with other tools, to protect our infrastructure and data.

Zerto keeps us up.
We employ Zerto in our main data center as our emergency back up system. Many times we have had issues or maintenance needed and with a few clicks, we have been able to failover to Zerto. It keep us up and running- it has really saved our bacon and made it easy to keep our up-time at 100%

Zerto lives up to the hype!
Zerto is being used across the entire organization. It provides us with an enterprise-level of backup and recovery for all our critical production servers and applications. Our disaster recovery plan heavily relies on the Zerto technology in which we are successfully able to failover to our disaster site and achieve a very low recovery point objective, which takes actually only tens of seconds.

Zerto is a must for DR Replication
Zerto is being used as a Disaster Recovery solution to replicate mission-critical virtual machines to a secondary site. This is done by the use of journal-based transactions. This allows us to fail over our systems in a matter of minutes compared to a matter of hours. This has reduce the the company's RTO.

Great DR Solution
We use Zerto as our DR solution to our DR location as well as Microsoft Azure. We use it to streamline our DR strategy with our business continuity plan. IT has utilized Zerto primarily for DR as well as offloading computing load to DR.

Zerto: The Master of Disaster
Zerto is being used as it's intended to be used, as a disaster recovery product. Zerto replicates critical company data to other data centers just in case a disaster ever occurs and it does it very well.

Put Your Executives At Ease
Zerto provides the live replication of every business-critical VM in our organization.
January 12, 2019
Simple, reliable, and easy to use
We use Zerto replication to provide both an HA and a DR capability for all live servers. This enables the business to have a live copy of servers available to protect against local individual server failure and also a separate copy to protect the business in case of a site failure. In the case of local failure, we use journaling to roll back to any point in time over a two week period. This provides robust protection for all live servers.

Zerto: It just works well
I was able to easily replicate our primary datacenter to our disaster recovery site and easily test quarterly.
September 24, 2018
Why I like Zerto best
We are a Disaster Recovery specialty company providing the spectrum of DR - BC planning to implementation, including best of class products to enhance our clients' ability to restore data quickly and minimize downtime. As a Zerto reseller and MSP, we provide a DR site for our customers. Specifically, Zerto provides easy recovery of a failed virtual machine, with the restore point option up to 14 days and a high granularity of restore points.
Zerto can provide One-2-Many backups up to 3 local and/or DR sites. With infections like Crypto-Locker, Zerto provides a fast resumption of a VM (or group of VMs) at the click of a few buttons, to select the machine and time of the restore. And Zerto does this without snapshotting the VMware environment. Zerto can also [move] to Hyper-V in a similar manner and move Hyper-V to VMware or vice-versa.

It has decreased both RPO and RTO significantly
Primary Use Case
Replication of business critical VMware VMs over WAN to the remote disaster recovery datacenter.
Valuable Features
The benefits are obvious: The simplicity of the setup and the speed of replication.
The speed of WAN replication is great. It is faster compared to RecoverPoint and 20 VMs replicating over a 20Mbps VPN, which has a RPO less than one minute. Of course, your mileage will vary.
Improvements to My Organization
Compared to the previous DR replication solution, Zerto has decreased both RPO and RTO significantly.

Zerto replication solution
We use Zerto to replicate our environment for one of our customers. It provides us with the ability to failover to our other location environment and bring it up within minutes in a disaster situation or when we perform maintenance

Zerto - Unparalleled Protection
Score 10 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
Zerto is used by the IT department to provide protection of a virtual environment. One main distinction is that it provides solid protection for single servers or a cluster of servers that are part of an application. It does a phenominal job in this task and I have been able to save countless hours using it. From recovering from botched upgrades, corrupted files, and even virus infections to leveraging the DR as a test bed for upgrades. It has a wide variety of uses.
June 20, 2018
Zerto is great!
We use Zerto to replicate our VMware environment, which has grown substantially over the past several years or so. We have an off-prem DR site that we replicate both on-site data and cloud data brought in from a wide array of formats and organizations. We love the functionality of the automation and the ease of management. It really helps free up time.

Zerto makes BC/DR powerful and simple.
Zerto is our primary high availability and DR solution. We use it across our entire organization to provide continuous replication that protects our environment. We also use Zerto to migrate our VMs between data centers and cloud providers. The simple interface and ease of being able to get it set up and configured let us quickly react to changes in our virtual environment.

Zerto Virtual Replication, reliable replication.
We use Zerto to replicate our most mission-critical virtual servers to our offsite replication host site. It was extremely easy to setup and it just works. We have had no issues with it in the last two-plus years and I can't imagine anything would be easier to setup and implement and provide better service.

Zerto the DR solution for Cloud Replication
Zerto is the only solution that offers tier 0 RPO/RTO for VMware and Hyper-V hypervisors and replication to the public cloud seamlessly. It offers a comprehensive DR solution.
December 08, 2017
Why should you switch to Zerto for DR?
Zerto is used by our organization to enable replication of virtual machines on our primary VMware datacentre to a secondary VMware datacentre and will be used to enable us to pivot our disaster recovery and business continuity infrastructure from a traditional datacentre to a public cloud provider such as Microsoft Azure or Amazon's AWS.
November 21, 2017
Zerto the Easy but Powerful Replication Software
We currently use Zerto to provide real-time replication to our Disaster Recovery site. It is being used by the IT department only but the servers that it protects are used by the entire organization. It gives us the ability to recover gracefully from any unexpected business emergencies with an RPO that is within 5 minutes or less. Thus reducing any down time our customers may experience.
October 26, 2017
Perfect disaster recovery setup with nice replication features
We use Zerto as part of our Managed Service offerings in our cloud data center for Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS). We also use, on premise, Zerto projects for our customers.
September 15, 2017
Zerto - Replication and (Backup)
Zerto addresses the need for replication and backup when array based replication is lacking or difficult to configure and use. It also replaces the VMware product SRM, which is costly and may not always be configured depending on the array(s) that a customer may have.
March 24, 2017
Zerto is the best thing since sliced bread.
We are using Zerto Virtual Replication throughout our whole organization. It solves the problem of complicated data replication between our primary and DR datacenters.
October 12, 2016
Zerto Virtual Replication, good stuff
Zerto is being used by my organization to replicate all our virtual servers (VMware). Our IT department is using it now to make sure we have a disaster recovery environment should anything happen. It allows us to quickly turn up a disaster recovery environment and not worry about spinning up entirely new hardware.
