We performed a comparison between AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery and Quest NetVault 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."Technical support has been very good. They usually respond quickly to our requests."
"The solution is dependent on the network bandwidth. For example, if they have a bandwidth of 10Mbps the solution will run a little heavier. If the bandwidth is good the solution runs well."
"We have never had any issues with scalability."
"The initial setup is really straightforward."
"We went from an organization with minimal to no disaster recovery. I was able to spin up the disaster recovery environment with AWS rather quickly and meet business requirements."
"The setup is pretty straightforward."
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users."
"It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"If a job is pending, the solution communicates it to us through emails."
"It has File and SQL backup, which is the main benefit for us."
"The user interface is good."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It's not that complicated. Deployment took maybe about 15 minutes."
"Its dashboard is quite well done. When you log into the GUI, you can basically see everything you need to know. There is also the possibility to edit the view as you like, which is great."
"The solution allows us to block off our network and only give access to whatever we want."
"The platform helps us with efficient QoreStor deduplication (DD) capabilities and configuration."
"The user interface, customer support, and the recovery time for the current customer query could use improvement."
"Sometimes a server will get a bit behind. "
"The only thing I would like to see is, they don't have a formal ticketing system. There is no way I can go back and see what questions we had six months back, what issues we had, and how they were resolved."
"The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"The UI could be a little sleeker."
"I set up a test, deleted the source, and went to fail it back, and it didn't work."
"The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line."
"Definitely there should be better logging. From a customer perspective I would like to see more logs on what is happening. If there is an issue, I would like to know what the problem is. Right now, we have to depend on the support of the vendor to check and let us know, because we don't have access to a lot of logging information."
"The initial setup is a little complex."
"The interface can be improved. It should be more clear what features are available and make them easy to find."
"The storage capacity is very low."
"There are certain issues with the product that we report to Quest, and we get offered a workaround instead of a fix. There could be better interaction with the development teams, perhaps in terms of transparency."
"There are command-line limitations. There is not a very strong possibility to work with the command line. The commands that are there are not that powerful, and you need to be very good at scripting, for example, in PowerShell or in Bash in case it is running on Linux systems. You need to combine a lot of commands together, and still, you will not get a great output that is presentable to others. You cannot work with it as easily."
"The stability of the solution is poor."
"In the next version, I would like to see support for the MongoDB database. As it is now, there is no component that works with it and we cannot back the data up using NetVault."
"The product’s SQL backup plugin needs improvement."
