Axcient x360Recover vs Trilio Site Recovery

Axcient x360Recover provides backup, business continuity and disaster recovery for managed service providers and their clients. It supports computer and server image backups across Windows, VMware, Linux, macOS, public cloud and IaaS environments. Deployment can be Direct-to-Cloud or appliance-based, using Axcient cloud, private cloud, public cloud or hybrid infrastructure. Both deployment options target a 15-minute recovery point objective and recovery time of less than one hour. Chain-free retention supports periods of 3, 5, 7 or 10 years without reseeding or consolidation. AutoVerify virtualizes backed-up data to provide evidence of regular backup checks, while AirGap separates data deletion requests from the mechanics of deletion to help prevent malicious or accidental removal. Virtual Office can run one or more systems in Axcient Cloud temporarily when production infrastructure is affected. Optional Local Cache pairs Direct-to-Cloud with USB or NAS storage to reduce recovery and failback times. x360Recover Manager can send alerts to ConnectWise and Autotask PSA, and a direct ConnectWise Asio integration syncs alerts and device information. Pricing is on request, and a free 14-day trial requires no credit card.

Trilio Site Recovery is a paid, hybrid disaster-recovery product for KubeVirt and OpenShift Virtualization virtual machines. It uses continuous, storage-agnostic replication without a VM agent. Synchronous block replication targets near-zero RPO, while asynchronous replication is also available. Automated failover can start VMs in a defined order, reassign networks, and cut over DNS. Isolated tests run from replicated snapshots without disrupting production, with compliance reports available. Replication policies are Kubernetes custom resources that can be kept as Git-managed manifests, and the product lists ArgoCD, Flux, and ACM compatibility. Its OpenShift-native operator architecture uses CRDs and a centralized control plane for multiple clusters. Hooks before and after failover can quiesce databases, flush writes, and notify dependent services. Listed capabilities include persistent-volume and cluster-resource backup, application-consistent backup, dependency mapping, instant VM recovery, immutable storage, cloud targets, and off-site replication. Availability is described as Technology Preview through Trilio’s Early Adopter Program, supporting Red Hat OpenShift 4.20 and later. Pricing is on request.
