OpenText Availability vs. OpenText Migrate vs. Paragon Protect & Restore vs. Python Comparison Chart

OpenText Availability continuously replicates physical, virtual, and cloud systems at the byte level, capturing real-time changes with a Recovery Point Objective of seconds, and maintains duplicated Windows and Linux servers at secondary locations for near-zero downtime. In the event of an outage, it offers automated or on-demand failover with integrated heartbeat monitoring and DNS management, followed by seamless failback when systems are restored. Data is secured with AES 256-bit encryption in flight, while three tiers of compression and bandwidth-throttling options minimize network impact. An extensive API allows integration with other applications, and built-in alerting, reporting, and non-disruptive failover testing ensure administrators can monitor health, troubleshoot, and validate disaster-recovery plans without affecting production workloads. OpenText Availability supports any hypervisor, including VMware ESXi/vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V, and any major cloud platform.

A common availability solution for protecting ESX/ESXi, Hyper-V and physical Windows systems drastically reduces IT administration work and lowering the associated expenses. Manage all backup tasks from a central console with conventional monitoring solutions and extended testing, reporting and analysis functions. The solution adapts to company’s RTO and RPO. Near CDP, instant replication (failover), automatic data validation, test failover and much more ensure continuity and constant availability. Multi-tier storage support, archiving functions and expanded data duplication options – just to name a few features making Paragon Protect & Restore really cost-efficient. The solution adapts to IT requirements and can be expanded for using with VMware and Hyper-V hypervisors. Storage reconfiguration and infrastructure expansion are made in minutes.
