Good policies related to data
I primarily use it for various policies related to data, such as data retention, data deletion, and archiving policies. All policies can be set using this system The most valuable feature for me is the policy management capabilities. I would like to see more integration with different platforms,…

Enhanced filtering for advocate emails
Quorum provides an elevated ability to filter on everything from people's location to age to their voting history. This is an extreme feature that will help our advocacy department a lot. It encompasses the ability to formulate emails and calls to action across regions. Their platform is more advanced than our previous one. It provides a smooth training experience and easy terminology for those in the advocacy world.

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 feature for me is the policy management capabilities"
"The flexible ways you can get to the data and the options that it gives you for backing up your valuable data are what make its offsite storage so valuable."
"I have used the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) in several emergencies and it has absolutely saved my bacon."
"The most valuable feature of Quorum OnQ is quick recovery."
"Mostly, onQ gives us confidence, knowing that we're really covered if we really have to bring the systems up."
"The most useful feature is the one-click recovery."
"In extreme cases, we have used the ability to spin up a VM on the Quorum device for use in our production environment, which is a great feature and also very easy to do."
"It provides a smooth training experience and easy terminology for those in the advocacy world."
"It is a stable solution."
"The solution offers good documentation."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more integration with different platforms."
"Basically, the only thing I do not like about it, it was keyed off Lotus Notes."
"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."
"They have radio buttons that allow multiselection, which is not intuitive."
"The price is high and could be more competitive."
"There seems to be a lack of technicians. Sometimes they are very busy and I don't hear back for a day or two. The technicians they have are great. They are fantastic, but it seems difficult, at times, to get in contact with anyone."
"The price of Quorum OnQ could be improved."
"It would be beneficial if file culling could be more granular."
"I would like to see iSCSI support added so that NAS storage servers could be protected."
"I don't love the scheduler, as I think that interface could use an overhaul."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We have never questioned whether it is worth it because it so obviously is a great value."
"The solution’s pricing is economical."
"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 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 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 upfront cost of purchasing a license for the hardware is quite steep."
"When we quote the price of Quorum to customers, they find it expensive."
