We performed a comparison between Cohesity DataProtect and Quorum OnQ based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The spin-up of a VM within a test environment for backup testing along with quick restores."
"The implementation and training are all done through the sales engineer, which provides for a seamless and great experience when it comes to starting with a new vendor."
"The SQL Backup and Restore is very easy."
"No longer does it take several hours to backup a VM or troubleshoot a backup issue."
"The system automatically takes down the nodes one at a time and performs the upgrade and brings the node back up before proceeding to the next. Upgrades can now be done at any time with a high level of confidence."
"The support is awesome. They are very fast, competent and friendly."
"A robust, verifiable backup with a restore solution, which decreases our backup and has a restore window."
"The most valuable aspect for me is that I don't have to deal with media in terms of tapes like our existing system does."
"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."
"I like this product because it is easy to use."
"The solution offers good documentation."
"The solution is very cost effective."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"A little more documentation on standard faults would help, as new features are being released quite often."
"The support is pretty bad."
"I like that Cohesity offers the chance to have data on-premises and on the cloud. All the data is automatically sent to the cloud."
"In terms of the product itself, there have been a handful of patches that have had to be applied outside of the GUI via the command line. It's very straightforward and easy and in the same redundant fashion, but not quite as simple as one or two clicks. I'm hoping that will decrease going forward."
"If someone were to change an admin account password, I would like an alert raised for that, which is not available at the moment."
"When a new release is launched, there may be some bugs that need to be addressed by the developers. However, they promptly resolve these issues, and the software runs smoothly once again."
"We would like it to have more capabilities for different kinds of PaaS or SaaS services in the Azure cloud, such as Azure SQL or Azure Cosmos DB."
"The solution's dashboard or UI can be enhanced and made more user-friendly than its competitors."
"I don't love the scheduler, as I think that interface could use an overhaul."
"Better integration with cloud-based solutions like Azure and Office 365 is needed."
"The price is high and could be more competitive."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"Quorum OnQ can be improved by providing support for other operating systems like Ubuntu."
"It would be beneficial if file culling could be more granular."
"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 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."
