We performed a comparison between Cohesity DataProtect 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 most valuable feature is ease of use."
"Instant recovery options are a big benefit for urgent restores, as we don't need to wait for hours or days for a restore to complete before being able to access the files."
"The SQL Backup and Restore is very easy."
"Instant volume mount and the SpanFS filesystem itself, which has great dedupe and compression across all of our backups."
"I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"It's completely reliable and easy to restore."
"We are very satisfied with the product as a whole—all the backup functions, the data protection functions. We are very satisfied with those, and the product is very simple to use."
"I found value in the instant recovery with DataMove. I found value in the protection group model for applying policies to VMs. And in the overall UI navigation and the way that the application is laid out in the web browser."
"It is a stable solution."
"I like this product because it is easy to use."
"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 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."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of 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."
"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."
"We are highly dissatisfied with the level of support and functionality provided for HANA within the Cohesity product."
"Better documentation is needed because the lack of information has necessitated having our team depend more heavily on Cohesity support."
"At times, you may click the wrong server or click too fast and accidentally restore a cluster of servers. It would be very helpful to have a cancel option under restores."
"Microsoft Exchange online mailbox backups would be fantastic."
"Add the ability to delete View Boxes and External Targets in the GUI."
"The solution has a more complex setup than Veritas and Veeam."
"Initial setup can be complex if you need to change IP addresses. Hopefully, they improve that in a future release."
"Better support for legacy platforms would be nice, but we should be moving off those anyway."
"At times the email notifications don't go out, but a quick reset always fixes that problem."
"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."
"Better integration with cloud-based solutions like Azure and Office 365 is needed."
"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."
"Quorum OnQ can be improved by providing support for other operating systems like Ubuntu."
"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."
"The price is high and could be more competitive."
