vSphere includes VMware Data Recovery...correct?

[NJKwork]

I was looking at the VMware Data Recovery Product and it looks pretty cool...until I saw you had to purchase it. Then I saw this:

"VMware Data Recovery is included in vSphere Enterprise Plus, Advanced, and Essentials Plus Editions"

But we own "Enterprise". So I don't get it...why does Advanced include this product, but Enterprise does not? Isn't Enterprise a step up from Advanced? So shouldn't Enterprise also include this? I feel this is a bit unfair - but hopefully this is just a mis-print.

You are correct in saying that Enterprise does include Data Recovery. Check out the below link to the edition comparisons:

VMware wanted to use vSphere Enteprise as just an upgrade from VI Enterprise and discontinue vSphere Enterprise sells in December. So they didn't mention Enterprise, and you're right, Enterprise = Advanced plus some cool features like DRS, so Data Recovery is included.
