We are using Zerto for disaster recovery, special in cases where a very low RPO is required. This is mostly from VMware to VMware. This what Zerto can do very well. We also use Zerto for migrations from (mostly) Hyper V to VMware. Zerto can manage as one of the few to do this from Hyper V to VMware whitout to much trouble. A very good part is in this case is also the there is a 'provider' part but also a customer part and the customer can do it's own migrations en (test) fail-overs.
Pros
Low RPO
Hyper-V VMWare Migrations
Customer portal
Test fail-over
Cons
No refresh button to import new config from VMWare
Ghost VRA are not always removable
High license costs

Zerto is well used in cases where you need a very low RPO and you want you want to be in control just as your customer. The same counts if you want to migrate from platform A to platform B. It's less suited for companies that cannot afford high costs. The license is not cheap, but you can do a lot with Zerto and the support is very good at Zerto.
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.
Pros
Support of multiple hypervisors.
Support of replication to the public cloud.
Hardware agnostic in regards to storage.
Cons
Would like to see support for KVM.
More automation.
More customization of dashboards.
Likelihood to Recommend
This is a perfect solution for protection of mission-critical virtual workloads.
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.
Pros
It is very easy to install.
The replication is great. The journal based approach gives perfect recovery point options.
The orchestration helps in case of a disaster to get all applications running again in an orderly way.
The administration is very self explanatory.
Cons
Zerto needs a lot of open tcp ports between the different components. Especially in a cloud setup this is sometimes cumbersome. Less communications ports would be an improvement.
To streamline the implementation of a disaster site, it would be great if Zerto could also offer some kind of layer 2 LAN extender to connect recovery site and production LAN.
Likelihood to Recommend
You always need real disaster recovery protection in virtual environments; it is a perfect match.
I do not recommend it to use as the only backup solution. Since Zerto does not use snapshots it can work with other tools like Veeam Backup Reviews without any problems.
