Overall Satisfaction with Zerto
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.
Pros
- Disaster recovery
- Ransomware protection
- One to many replication
Cons
- Tier 1 support is not great
- Expensive
- Limitations migrating back from managed disks
- Changed disaster recovery from a full weekend process to a few hours
- At small scale, Zerto was a little to expensive for our environment
I think Rubrik, VEEAM and Zerto are great products, really depends on the use case. Zerto is probably the best real time replication technology available for VMs to a single or multiple DR datacenter. They claim they have backup capabilities but they are not in the ballpark of Rubrik. Rubrik is great for backup locally to the brick or to the cloud.
