Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."This solution is stable."
"We use the latest feature in Altaro called CDP (Continuous Data Protection) to back up our VMs as often as every five minutes. It allows us to make sure no data is accidentally deleted or overwritten."
"Valuable features for us include quick recovery, compression, and deduplication."
"The intuitive interface allows you to set up and perform backups and restores easily."
"The most valuable feature of Altaro VM Backup is its ability to backup and restore various types of data, including Active Directory, application servers, and SQL Server databases."
"The ability to test the backups without having to manually mount the VHDs after restore allows us to check the integrity of the backups."
"The product has many valuable features for handling backup needs, including replication, live migration, and incremental disaster recovery."
"The ease of use of the solution is its most valuable feature. The interface is also excellent."
"The solution offers good documentation."
"The solution is very cost effective."
"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."
"The biggest feature is being able to do a file recovery to the original server. That is extremely useful and has saved us a few times when we've had ransomware. In some of those cases, people's computers were locked down by viruses which spread to things they had access to, including server shares. But we were easily able to just restore to four hours prior, instead of a day or two or more ago."
"I have used the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) in several emergencies and it has absolutely saved my bacon."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"It's easy to implement, easy to spin up, easily configurable, to drop-in appliances and network. There wasn't a lot of time needed to spin it up."
"From a disaster-recovery point of view, one of the things I really like is that I can test the virtual copy of the physical server on a test network and compare the servers side-by-side, without interfering with the production network. So I can see and make sure that the latest copy of the server is the physical copy of the server, without interfering with production."
"The cloud backup and VMware support (now available in the latest releases), could do with some improvement."
"Basically, how it works is that you have a single local drive, and then you have a cloud backup. It'd be nice if you could rotate the single local backup drive. As of now, you can't."
"It would be nice to be able to recover the items to their original location."
"Backup speed and comparisons between versions used to be slow on big VMs but that was improved greatly later on."
"Stability."
"Improvement areas for Altaro VM Backup include enhancing backup and deduplication solutions for continuous operation and offering an all-in-one solution for hardware backup."
"The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer."
"Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful."
"I don't love the scheduler, as I think that interface could use an overhaul."
"Quorum OnQ's user interface is not very attractive and should be made more attractive."
"It would be beneficial if file culling could be more granular."
"One thing that could be done to improve it would be a single pane of glass for doing disaster recovery testing, where I could have remote consoles in one place... I still have to go to each location in a browser and then bring up the console. I'd like to see them integrate that into a single pane of glass so I don't have to go to each server."
"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."
"Lacks compatibility in terms of supporting other OS."
"The cost could be reduced."
"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."
