Products

Zerto provides disaster recovery solutions for virtualized and cloud infrastructures.

Zerto is entirely hypervisor and storage-agnostic, so data can be replicated to and from any VM operating to a different platform.^[5]

The latest version of Zerto Virtual Replication was released in mid-2016 and included replication to Microsoft Azure, one-to-many replication, 30 day data journal and a mobile monitoring app.
