We performed a comparison between Arcserve UDP 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."The interface is very refined, works fine, and is very intuitive most of the time. Scalability is nice. The multi-tenancy feature is very welcome. The integration with Linux works fine too."
"The product's deployment process was straightforward."
"The backup is the most valuable feature. It also makes storage very easy."
"The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is live replication."
"Arcserve has a feature called virtual standby (VSB), which has been very helpful because I already have a hot standby copy of my critical infrastructure. If something breaks, I can spin up that virtual standby copy in less than five minutes and ensure that my data is available to everyone and that business continuity is maintained."
"It allows us to back up all the servers and centrally manage them."
"The ease of use is the best feature of the product."
"One of the things that I do like about it is that it has a very good deduplication feature."
"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."
"The solution offers good documentation."
"When it comes to recovering what you need from a backup, it's really easy. You just drill through the directory, find the file and the date that you want, and click to recover. You then pick the directory you want to save it in. Usually, it takes a minute or two and it's done. It's quick and easy."
"It does automated tests to the systems to make sure that you could spin them up if you needed to. And if something doesn't come back up in those tests, we get a notification saying the system didn't come back up."
"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."
"I have used the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) in several emergencies and it has absolutely saved my bacon."
"Quorum OnQ has a good ransomware protection feature, and customer service and support were very good."
"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 technical support of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Licensing can be quite difficult."
"The initial setup was complex."
"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."
"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."
"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."
"We are looking at scaling up to the cloud and using immutable copies on the cloud. Arcserve UDP 8.0 does have the immutable feature supporting AWS, but I'm looking for multi-cloud support. So, I'm waiting for Arcserve to release that in the next release."
"In the most recent version of premium plus the replication has been removed, and it should re-added to the solution."
"I don't love the scheduler, as I think that interface could use an overhaul."
"The price is high and could be more competitive."
"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."
"We found that some of the live SQL databases we were backing up would be inconsistent when we would restore them."
"Better integration with cloud-based solutions like Azure and Office 365 is needed."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"They need integration with other platforms."
"Quorum OnQ can be improved by providing support for other operating systems like Ubuntu."
