Until now, it was not possible to back up the server and respond to emergencies, but with the introduction of this software, it is possible to go back. By supporting One Stop for various virtual OS environments, ease of use is greatly improved. Contributes to reduced TCO and high ROI by reducing management man-hours.

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.

  • 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.

First and foremost, this solution fits better into the budget than either of the solutions above. Additionally, I think it suits the market I was in better than the other software that play better in a strictly SMB or Enterprise space. Overall, I think this is a niche product that fits well. It's a flexible product and one that can accomplish and provide value for you in whatever capacity you need at the moment.

Before we were using native backup solutions. We elected to bring in Zerto on IBM Cloud so that our team could have the ability to take small increments of data over time so that the final cutover would be quick and efficient.

Return on Investment
Veeam Software
  • It is now possible to easily switch back when a problem occurs due to server backup acquisition and generation management.
  • The acquisition time has been shortened and the job is now completed overnight.
  • Also, it is amazing that "This high-performance backup solution is free!" is open to the public, like Community Edition.

  • 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.
