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.

Provides efficient backup management and fast support response for Windows virtual machines

There is room for improvement in Veeam Backup for AWS regarding its pricing. There are alternative solutions available at a lower price. The product would benefit from adding more security features and improving compatibility with other operating systems like IBM AIX. Moreover, offering different licensing models, such as packages or perpetual licenses, other than subscription, could be advantageous.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable solution."

"One of the biggest features is that, even on the absolutely run-of-the-mill box, if I lose any one of my servers I can automatically bring it up virtually on the physical onQ Quorum device."

"The most useful feature is the one-click recovery."

"A very high level security environment for secondary data."

"I like this product because it is easy to use."

"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."

"One of the most valuable features was the usability, since many of the features were very straightforward. The backup and restoration process was also very fast. Although we weren't able to fully test the scenarios, one of the features was that we could have it restored on a remote site. However, since we were on-prem, we weren't able to test the remote site restoration."

More Quorum OnQ pros

"Veeam Backup for AWS has valuable features such as easy management and installation."

Cons

"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"

"The one thing they could do is some tweaking on the web solution that's supposed to monitor everything from one page, rather than having to bring each server up on its own webpage. It doesn't always accurately show what the system's state is at the time, and we have to restart that process now and then."

"I paid for subscription of Firewall. I paid for subscription of endpoint protection. Thet should introduce single subscription for all services."

"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."

"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 user interface needs to be improved."

"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."

More Quorum OnQ cons

"There is room for improvement in Veeam Backup for AWS regarding its pricing. There are alternative solutions available at a lower price."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When we quote the price of Quorum to customers, they find it expensive."

"The total for our current solution's licensing is about $14,000 for 12 servers for three years."

"We have never questioned whether it is worth it because it so obviously is a great value."

"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."

"I am not sure how much it costs, but I know it's expensive."

"The upfront cost of purchasing a license for the hardware is quite steep."

"When we first got the Quorum the licensing was different."
