RandeepPawar - PeerSpot reviewer
Have improved recovery preparedness and see potential growth with better technical support
Acronis provides ease of use with all tools and solutions operating through a single console and agent. This reduces the workload on endpoints during backups and other cybersecurity operations. Backup is crucial as it allows data recovery. Email security helps protect against malicious emails. The failover process is preconfigured, offering a simplistic switch over for servers.
Mohamed Iqbal - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable and economical solution that provides quick disaster recovery
The most valuable feature of Quorum OnQ is quick recovery. We call it a single-click recovery. If any server goes down, crashes, or experiences downtime, we can bring up the DR (Disaster Recovery) server in just two minutes. We also have a "Single Pane of Glass," wherein we work with only a single window. You don't have to use multiple windows to perform basic tasks like failover or failback.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features of the product for me are its backup and recovery functionalities."
"The ability to automate the backup solution and recover entire mailboxes or even granular-level emails is very good for restoration and backup."
"Performance-wise, it works efficiently for backup and recovery compared to other tools."
"My customers are finding value in Acronis Disaster Recovery, as they are happy with the tool and continue to use the services after facing many situations where they found it useful and got good returns on their investment."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is data restoration or data recovery."
"Acronis Disaster Recovery has good scalability."
"DR and failover are good features of the tool."
"Our customers use Acronis Disaster Recovery for data backup."
"Quorum OnQ has taken the guesswork out of backup/recovery and disaster recovery."
"Quorum OnQ has a good ransomware protection feature, and customer service and support were very good."
"The solution offers good documentation."
"I like this product because it is easy to use."
"A very high level security environment for secondary data."
"The most valuable feature is spinning up a ready-to-go VM in a test or production environment that is based on a backup stored on the Quorum device."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"Quorum OnQ provides an elevated ability to filter on everything from people's location to age to their voting history."
 

Cons

"Acronis could improve by incorporating an application or network load balancer."
"There is room for improvement in incorporating intelligence around disaster recovery. For instance, if a server is completely offline and destroyed, the system should offer an intelligent response, providing options to start recovery without requiring manual intervention from engineers."
"Acronis could improve by incorporating an application or network load balancer. They could also enhance endpoint security by integrating EDR within the security framework."
"I wish the Disaster Recovery system could do more, like integrating irregularity features and combining VLP functionalities."
"The solution covers specific versions of Windows and Linux, and it would be good if other Linux versions or some special appliances could work in the Acronis Disaster Recovery environment."
"Acronis Disaster Recovery is an expensive solution compared to other products."
"The cost is acceptable."
"We need the server configuration capacity to be enlarged with the solution's help, as it does not currently include capabilities for storage expansion during recovery."
"There was a situation I faced in the past when I contacted the tool's support team, and it took them a while to respond."
"It feels to me like it's going to be a little bit more work than I originally anticipated when upgrading the appliance. I haven't done that yet so I can't speak from true experience, but I went through the project plan and it feels to me like there's quite a number of pieces and components and things that have to be done. Quorum is going to manage the rollout, but in starting the initial conversation there were a lot of unanswered questions"
"I would like to see iSCSI support added so that NAS storage servers could be protected. We heavily utilize NAS storage and the risk there is minimal backup options. Currently, we are backing up NAS to NAS which is costly and slow. Being able to integrate NAS server backup would be the last item on my Quorum bucket list."
"The price of Quorum OnQ could be improved. We were exploring the product in terms of having a partnership with the distributor so that we could operate as a service, but for our own use, within the company, we couldn't justify the price unless the servers would become an option later on. The upfront cost of purchasing a license for the hardware is quite steep."
"I don't love the scheduler, as I think that interface could use an overhaul."
"They need integration with other platforms."
"They have radio buttons that allow multiselection, which is not intuitive. Also, the URL for our environments is the same, making it confusing for management when handling different departments with different needs."
"Better integration with cloud-based solutions like Azure and Office 365 is needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's pricing is reasonable."
"The solution’s pricing is average."
"The price of the solution is inexpensive."
"The product has an affordable price."
"The tool is a little bit expensive. When it comes to pricing, there is a range for the VMs and endpoints. It depends. A set of backups on a DR probably costs around 10 to 20 USD per endpoint."
"Acronis Disaster Recovery is a cheap solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing two or three out of ten."
"This pricing is quite reasonable."
"The upfront cost of purchasing a license for the hardware is quite steep."
"When we first got the Quorum the licensing was different."
"Quorum OnQ can be described as a medium-priced product...There are no ingress and egress charges in the product."
"The total for our current solution's licensing is about $14,000 for 12 servers for three years."
"The pricing is about $1,400 a month. It's a little bit on the higher side. But it's one of those situations where time is valuable for me. So if it costs a little bit more money for me to have a solution that just works and requires less of my day-to-day management, I'm willing to pay a little bit more."
"The initial expenditure for us was a little under $40,000 for the recent renewal. For the first three years after that, other than electricity, there's no cost. After that, their support contract has to be renewed annually. We spent close to $6,000, between the two offices, for support."
"The solution’s pricing is economical."
"The cost is higher than other software and services, but it is an absolute must-have."
