We performed a comparison between Acronis Cyber Protect and Quorum OnQ based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Universal Restore is valuable to us."
"The main reasons that our customers like Acronis are that it is very strong and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that you can archive backups quite easily and minimize the amount of space you're using."
"I would definitely say the backup and recovery. It used to be a separate module. It was a recovery part and it would literally duplicate the machine to bare bones."
"The most valuable feature is that you can do a bare-metal restore even with dissimilar hardware."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to back up and recover our production environment from ransomware."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it backs up my systems transparently in the background, and I'm not even conscious of it."
"In terms of system-critical support, Acronis' technical support does really well. I would give them an eight out of ten for that."
"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."
"Quorum OnQ has a good ransomware protection feature, and customer service and support were very good."
"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."
"The change in the way that Quorum processes data has made a tremendous improvement in backup and replication times. While the familiar interface remains, the underpinnings have been finely tuned and the speed is incredible. My large Exchange Server went from 5- to 6-hour backups down to 22 minutes."
"I have used the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) in several emergencies and it has absolutely saved my bacon."
"Quorum OnQ has taken the guesswork out of backup/recovery and disaster recovery."
"A very high level security environment for secondary data."
"Some of the default settings out-of-the-box should already be set up for the novice user. For instance, the warnings that say a hard drive has bad sectors and stops the backup from performing."
"One improvement that could be made is adding the option to download files in a PST format when doing a 365 or Google Cloud to cloud backup."
"Because Acronis Backup is an on-premises solution, there is extra overhead. It's harder to manage, and there's no real remote access. You have to physically log in to the machine to manage it. The reporting feature works fine, and you will be able to send out reports. However, that is where it stops. The deployment could be improved and could be through a network chain. If we need to deploy two machines that are not connected to the internet but connected to two different networks, it would be great to have a machine with dual mix that has access to the backup server and to those machines. It would be like a relay that you can install on the machine with a two-mix, and that machine can then connect to your backup server and to the other machines. You should be able to see the other machines on that network and be able to deploy to it and push jobs to it."
"The licensing approach becomes intricate when dealing with SharePoint."
"The support and documentation must be improved."
"The pricing could be improved."
"Their support process can be quite lengthy...This is an area that needs improvement."
"There are a lot of products out there that are a little bit stronger than Acronis where AV is concerned."
"Quorum OnQ's user interface is not very attractive and should be made more attractive."
"They need integration with other platforms."
"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."
"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 paid for subscription of Firewall. I paid for subscription of endpoint protection. Thet should introduce single subscription for all services."
"We found that some of the live SQL databases we were backing up would be inconsistent when we would restore them."
"At times the email notifications don't go out, but a quick reset always fixes that problem."
"The cost could be reduced."
