We performed a comparison between Quorum OnQ and Unitrends 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."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 is very cost effective."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"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."
"The solution offers good documentation."
"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."
"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."
"I like this product because it is easy to use."
"VM backup is much faster and more reliable, as I can test my backups with Data Copy Access jobs."
"The backup feature and recovery option are good because they allow the instant recovery of Hyper-V nodes and files."
"When I have had to use tech support, they've been very good."
"The most valuable feature of Unitrends for me is the automated feedback"
"When we talk about a backup point of view, from a backup perspective, it's a good one."
"It is an easy system to use. The support, if needed, is always willing to help."
"They have great support."
"The ability to backup both physical and virtual machines, along with having an appliance store the backups locally instead of on a file server, NAS, or SAN."
"Lacks compatibility in terms of supporting other OS."
"Better integration with cloud-based solutions like Azure and Office 365 is needed."
"I paid for subscription of Firewall. I paid for subscription of endpoint protection. Thet should introduce single subscription for all services."
"The price is high and could be more competitive."
"I would really like it if they followed comparable products from other vendors and had an option where you could offload to tape. I know it sounds incredibly antiquated, but the benefit I see is that there would be a better air gap than you have with backing up to an online source."
"The cost could be reduced."
"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."
"Follow up for the DRaaS service setup. I'm still waiting to schedule a DRaaS test after upgrading several months ago."
"Techs don't see to be well-versed in troubleshooting issues that arise and tickets stay opened for weeks for resolution."
"There's a lot that can be made better. For example, it could be more scalable."
"It would be great to have the job throttle/limit the max number of backups on a single ESXi host."
"I would like to see the real-time replication process improved, and a zero RPO feature added."
"The solution’s UI can be improved. I am saying this because I have seen solutions with better UIs."
"The solution's base operating system needs to be improved."
"Support is great for small simple issues, but anything more difficult, it is hard to get good resolutions without having to badger them and their management."
