* No Hyper-V integration * VirtualBox performance is terrible, although KVM is now rolling out * Large agent to install on each VM (due to lack of Hyper-V support) * Unreliable agents - known to cause VMs to reboot, especially older Windows 2008 systems * Lack of VLAN support * Cloud recovery is missing flexibility and the ability to create virtual firewalls or VPNs based on IPsec. Only OpenVPN is supported at this time. * Their cloud recovery option is tedious, a manual process that has to be planned up to 2 weeks for a validation process. * You really need to test it thoroughly to understand its limitations and issues. * Datto chose to build their own cloud, instead of leveraging AWS, Azure or GCP.

I recommend that you stay away from Datto.
