Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"When it comes to disaster recovery, this is one of the best solutions there is for EMC products."
"The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes."
"The product's initial setup phase was quite easy to install."
"It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."
"The installation is straightforward if the version you have is compatible with your infrastructure."
"Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature, and its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable."
"RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast."
"It is a very simple tool to use and offers flexibility in using the tool for recovery and transitioning from one state to another."
"Quorum OnQ has a good ransomware protection feature, and customer service and support were very good."
"This is a product that works well, is easy to install, and easy to use."
"Having Quorum gives us 100 percent uptime."
"It is a stable solution."
"In extreme cases, we have used the ability to spin up a VM on the Quorum device for use in our production environment, which is a great feature and also very easy to do."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"The most useful feature is the one-click recovery, as it instantly boots up the protected VM and this product is easy to use."
"I sleep better knowing that Quorum is there."
 

Cons

"The solution could improve by being more easier to use. However, once you have used it for a while it becomes easier. Additionally, there could be better support and compatibility with management by having a command-line interface. This would be beneficial for the customers."
"It should have features for recovering a group of virtual machines and full-scale security. For recovering all the VMs at once, they don't have a GUI option, and we have to use the command line."
"In the next release of this software, I would like to see options that help to decrease the bandwidth required, such as compressing the data."
"It would be good to have a critical application on the customer side."
"The solution's technical team has enough skills, but the process can get complicated with the time you get connected with the L3 support."
"I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment."
"Maybe integration with Kubernetes for OpenShift would be helpful."
"The price of this product could be lower."
"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."
"They need integration with other platforms."
"They have radio buttons that allow multiselection, which is not intuitive. Also, the URL for our environments is the same, making it confusing for management when handling different departments with different needs."
"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."
"They have radio buttons that allow multiselection, which is not intuitive."
"The solution could do more by improving compatibility in terms of supporting other OS."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"I would like to see iSCSI support added so that NAS storage servers could be protected."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is expensive. If one means cheaply priced and ten means expensive, I rate the tool's price as a seven."
"This is an expensive product."
"It was a part of a backup solution. So, it was free for us."
"Pricing-wise, it is pretty much fair for any customer who only has a VMware environment. Licensing is based on the number of VMs that you want to protect at any given point in time. Licensing is not based on size."
"This is not a very cheap solution and compared to others, it is expensive."
"There is a license required for this solution and the pricing depends on how many virtual machines you have."
"The initial expenditure for us was a little under $40,000 for the recent renewal. For the first three years after that, other than electricity, there's no cost. After that, their support contract has to be renewed annually. We spent close to $6,000, between the two offices, for support."
"When we first got the Quorum the licensing was different."
"The solution’s pricing is economical."
"The upfront cost of purchasing a license for the hardware is quite steep."
"I am not sure how much it costs, but I know it's expensive."
"We have never questioned whether it is worth it because it so obviously is a great value."
"The pricing is about $1,400 a month. It's a little bit on the higher side. But it's one of those situations where time is valuable for me. So if it costs a little bit more money for me to have a solution that just works and requires less of my day-to-day management, I'm willing to pay a little bit more."
"The cost is higher than other software and services, but it is an absolute must-have."
