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 product's deployment process was straightforward."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that I can by just one click, copy and paste anything that I would want. I do not have to restore the whole virtual machine."
"Easy restoration and the solution works quickly."
"The most valuable features are the replication to the cloud and the deduplication."
"The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is live replication."
"Arcserve UDP has a good configuration and user interface. It makes the job of an administrator easy."
"I would recommend it if there is a general case."
"One of the things that I do like about it is that it has a very good deduplication feature."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use."
"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."
"Quorum OnQ has taken the guesswork out of backup/recovery and disaster recovery."
"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."
"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 solution is very cost effective."
"The solution offers good documentation."
"Being able to spin up a machine in a sandbox is amazing because it allows us to test things that we otherwise would not be able to do."
"I don't know whether the tool has VMware integrations. It would be good to cover this area if it doesn't have those."
"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."
"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."
"The initial setup was complex."
"The solution's reporting could be improved and should provide customized reports."
"I had an issue with Arcserve UDP during the failover and the secondary machine didn't get back online, even though it ran automatically. I faced the issue during a crisis situation. However, I haven't faced such a problem again."
"We have to use a Microsoft hypervisor for installation which is expensive."
"The support could be more knowledgeable and faster."
"It would be beneficial if file culling could be more granular."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Better integration with cloud-based solutions like Azure and Office 365 is needed."
"The price is high and could be more competitive."
