Cloud backups have strengthened ransomware recovery and now protect critical business data

I see several areas where Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery could be improved. First is the architectural design and configuration, along with operational maturity, as well as security integration. The performance of support can definitely be improved with easier on-call support features for P1 and P2 incidents. Getting quick support from the vendor during major recoveries or disasters would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, improving the strength of ransomware protections, addressing critical gaps in deployments, enforcing backup immutability policies, and making disaster recovery testing routine instead of an ad hoc process are important. Validating that I can quickly recover data should be a priority, and improved runbooks or operational maturity platforms would be beneficial for data recovery from critical incidents.

Backup storage has shrunk dramatically with deduplication but still needs stronger security options

The air gap feature is something I'd really like to see in QoreStor. There's no native air gap capability right now, and for security-conscious environments, that's a gap. The configuration export is also limited in QoreStor. If you want to document your setup or migrate configuration to a new instance, it requires more manual work than it should.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup was straightforward and we received support from the manufacturer."

"The Infrascale Dashboard is very easy to understand, has a good overview, and gives me access to all my appliances without having to have a local VPN connection to the individual clients. It makes it very easy to find my way around."

"The interface of Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery is very easy to use, and there are no problems. It's set it and forget it. You can make adjustments very easily as well."

"The ease of use is valuable. It is user-friendly. Performing backup and recovery can be done very intuitively with the solution and the interface that is part of the solution."

"Its Critical Server Insurance feature for protecting physical and virtual servers, including Windows, Linux, VMware, and Hyper-V is mandatory for me and it makes me happy. If I had a backup solution that didn't do that, it would not be a backup solution and would not be any good."

"Overall, I set it up, configured it, deployed it, and walked away from it; it just chugs away happily."

"Given that we are in the hurricane belt, the spin-up of replicated servers in the cloud is among the most valuable features, because if our site goes down we can just connect to the cloud appliance, spin up the servers, and we are good to go."

"The experience that we have had with this product is generally good."

More Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery pros

"It integrates with various backup software solutions, which makes it compatible with existing backup workflows and processes."

"If storage costs are a problem, whether on-premises or cloud, QoreStor is worth a serious look."

"Since we started to resell QoreStor, we have been using it internally; it's better than other backup solutions we have used or evaluated."

"This software solution can be installed on many different types of hardware, which makes it very flexible. We can run it on virtual machines or virtual servers, providing convenience for solutions of varying sizes, from small to large."

"Data deduplication and replication would be the top two features. The encryption and cloud tiering are also attractive for the future."

"Quest QoreStor is very stable compared to our previous solution."

"The extreme compression of data is a big thing for us. We were looking for an online backup solution, and QoreStor is very good in terms of data compression. It helps us minimize the required storage in the Blob Storage environment."

"The dedupe and compression are pretty extreme. On disk, we're getting dedupe rates of up to 65 percent of data and compression of 34 percent. When you go to the cloud, it's more like 76 percent for dedupe and almost 50 percent for compression."

More QoreStor pros

Cons

"In terms of what I would like to see, it would be to make the solution available across multiple clouds."

"There is room for improvement by making the interface a little more intuitive when navigating to recover flat files or an old server."

"The only point of improvement I can think of for Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery is that the restore process could sometimes be easier to do and faster. A file-only restore or directory-only restore can sometimes take quite some time; however, a server restore goes fast."

"There could be some room for improvement in the on-premises hardware selection."

"One of the significant drawbacks of it is due to the fact that we're using two devices to manage the same vCenter, or virtualization environment, and they don't talk to each other. That means I can't easily see what VMs are already being protected. If I'm on Infrascale device "A" and I have protected these VMs, when I go over to device "B," I can't see that those VMs are already covered."

"Their margin from what they're wholesale and their MSRP is kind of tight for people who have to manage it."

"I think they could increase security. I would like to see more features for the section on the viruses and maybe another in reference to two-factor authentication."

"The performance of support can definitely be improved with easier on-call support features for P1 and P2 incidents."

More Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery cons

"The importance of support is significant to me. I was working for a service provider, and all of our customers had a Quest or warning. Sometimes the support really underperforms."

"They need to increase their maximum capacity. Other than that, they're doing a pretty good job."

"The setup of the software is definitely not the easiest thing in the world."

"Support is one point of improvement for Quest QoreStor. Support is sometimes not adequate."

"The ransomware protection of QoreStor could use improvement."

"The management interface is in need of improvement. The graphical user interface (GUI) for the web management tools appears clunky, and not super intuitive."

"The air gap feature is something I'd really like to see in QoreStor."

"There can be some kind of monitoring solutions to alert users to issues with the appliance or software, making it easy for customers to monitor their systems in the field."

More QoreStor cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is based on how much data you have plus what appliances you need."

"The licensing structure was changed some time ago and it's a lot more efficient and the price points are a lot better. They're improving and heading in the right direction."

"They are incredibly fair and willing to work with their partners to make their pricing work for both partners and the end users."

"Infrascale's pricing, to me, was outstanding and was one of the major factors in my decision to go with Infrascale... My customer had a different solution before and his monthly payment was three times as much as the payment he now has with Infrascale."

"The pricing is pretty good and competitive with the market. The per-terabyte pricing is very competitive compared to the others."

"The pricing is fair, and they are interested in working with MSPs as part of their market."

"It is super competitive. It is worth taking a look at it from a licensing and pricing perspective."

"I appreciate their pricing. We went for this solution for its pricing."

More Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery pricing and cost advice

"The pricing is good. It is competitive for a managed services provider. I like the ability to pay by the terabyte, allowing for an incremental cost that we and our customers can afford, so the solution grows with the customer."

"The cost is per terabyte, and overall, the cost was reasonable when compared to some competitors."

"Quest QoreStor's pricing is affordable. We evaluated Veeam, a well-known company for backup solutions, but found their pricing to be quite high. Veeam's price was almost double. For us, Quest QoreStor is very affordable."

"Its pricing model is very attractive. You have one price, and you get everything from QoreStor."
