Cahit Yolacan - PeerSpot reviewer
Has supported reliable file backup operations and maintained compliance with local data policies
The strong point for me is the tape record feature. The backup and recovery capabilities of NetVault Plus are very important for maintaining my business. There's no positive impact that NetVault Plus has brought to my company; I mean, there's no particular benefit I have seen from using it. It's just used in general, and another colleague specifically selected NetVault Plus without any problem in Turkey area; everything is good enough for me. But specifically, with NetVault Plus, I don't see any impact.

Trustworthy and provides good availability
Our administrator found the solution easy to use, but once that administrator left, it felt very overwhelming to the individual who took it over. It could be more of a knowledge transfer situation that didn't happen, but we didn't know if it was easy to use. Precisely Assure QuickEDD is deployed on the cloud in our organization. The implementation of QLED helped us with our recovery time objective and was a seamless transition. In order to utilize the product to its fullest potential, users should be knowledgeable of what it offers. They should also form a relationship with the person who is their representative. Overall, I rate the solution an eight or nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Quest NetVault Plus is quite effective for managing backups across multiple systems because we don't need to log in to the backup server to manage it; it's web-based, so from any system in the network, you can log in and manage everything."
"The solution allows us to block off our network and only give access to whatever we want."
"Quest NetVault Plus has a high level of stability."
"It has File and SQL backup, which is the main benefit for us."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"Its dashboard is quite well done. When you log into the GUI, you can basically see everything you need to know. There is also the possibility to edit the view as you like, which is great."
"The user interface is good."
"The platform helps us with efficient QoreStor deduplication (DD) capabilities and configuration."
"Synchronous applications are valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Precisely Assure QuickEDD is the backup system."
 

Cons

"The storage capacity is very low."
"The product’s SQL backup plugin needs improvement."
"The stability of the solution is poor."
"Improvements could be made in the deduplication and data management capabilities. There is also a need for better security measures, as security is critical to ensure backups are safe and free from malware."
"There's no positive impact that NetVault Plus has brought to my company; I mean, there's no particular benefit I have seen from using it."
"There are command-line limitations. There is not a very strong possibility to work with the command line. The commands that are there are not that powerful, and you need to be very good at scripting, for example, in PowerShell or in Bash in case it is running on Linux systems. You need to combine a lot of commands together, and still, you will not get a great output that is presentable to others. You cannot work with it as easily."
"There are certain issues with the product that we report to Quest, and we get offered a workaround instead of a fix. There could be better interaction with the development teams, perhaps in terms of transparency."
"In the next version, I would like to see support for the MongoDB database. As it is now, there is no component that works with it and we cannot back the data up using NetVault."
"There should be more interactive dashboards."
"Our administrator found the solution easy to use, but once that administrator left, it felt very overwhelming to the individual who took it over."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is expensive."
"When we purchased four licenses, we were given a very good price. However, it is still on the high side when compared to some other vendors."
"The price of our 12-month contract is approximately $1,500 AUD ($1,100 USD)."
"It is expensive. The cost varies based on your requirements. If you want to manage it, there is an extra cost."
