Cloud backup has reduced storage costs and now delivers fast, reliable data recovery
My overall experience in this field is seven years. The deployment model I have chosen for Druva Phoenix is mostly cloud-based backup. Government authorities and government customers majorly opt for on-premises deployment, but we have a very limited customer segment from that area. Druva Phoenix primarily operates on a private cloud, with some customers utilizing hybrid cloud solutions. If I assess the effectiveness of backup features in Druva Phoenix, particularly in minimizing operational disruptions, I would rate it as a very strong 9 or 9.5 on a scale of 10. I am not using Druva Data Security Cloud. My overall review rating for Druva Phoenix is 9.

Enhanced filtering for advocate emails
Quorum provides an elevated ability to filter on everything from people's location to age to their voting history. This is an extreme feature that will help our advocacy department a lot. It encompasses the ability to formulate emails and calls to action across regions. Their platform is more advanced than our previous one. It provides a smooth training experience and easy terminology for those in the advocacy world.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of Druva Phoenix are the simple portal to log in and flexibility."
"Druva Phoenix provides a return on investment and operational cost reductions after implementation."
"Once you set it up and you tell it exactly what needs to be backed up, you literally forget about it. It sends you emails and notifications of the current status of the jobs."
"Druva Phoenix is easy to use and easy to start with."
"We chose the best one that works for us which was Druva Phoenix."
"It's patch-based, so you don't have to bother about the backup server or the repository."
"The solution is great for companies that need backup capabilities."
"The best features of Druva Phoenix include comprehensive backup capabilities where you can back up your data with agent plus backup, deploy the proxy, and integrate your VMs to take your backup."
"Quorum OnQ has a good ransomware protection feature, and customer service and support were very good."
"It's easy to implement, easy to spin up, easily configurable, to drop-in appliances and network. There wasn't a lot of time needed to spin it up."
"I have used the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) in several emergencies and it has absolutely saved my bacon."
"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."
"Quorum OnQ has taken the guesswork out of backup/recovery and disaster recovery."
"This is true peace of mind for all IT admins."
"The most useful feature is the one-click recovery, as it instantly boots up the protected VM and this product is easy to use."
"This solution is very stable."
 

Cons

"Druva Phoenix could be improved if they provided bare metal recovery for physical servers, which would be beneficial for server deployment."
"There is room for improvement in the reporting aspect of Druva Phoenix."
"Druva Phoenix is optimized to work with x86 platforms, making it unsuitable for backing up non-x86 architectures like AIX. The solution is primarily designed for physical Linux and Windows systems based on the x86 architecture, as well as virtualized Windows and Linux environments. However, if you have an AIX system, it cannot be deployed in the cloud, and therefore, backing it up in the cloud is not a concern."
"The product's pricing needs to be improved."
"The price is always one of those things that you always look to just improve if you're a not-for-profit organization."
"Deploying it in a hybrid cloud model involves some minor complexities, though nothing represents a significant challenge."
"The ransomware features are limited in Druva. There's a lot of improvement needed. It should extend to Nutanix and Hyper-V. It should extend to Azure as well."
"They were able to give us a very reasonable price considering we were non-for-profit organizations, however, there is always room for improvement on that cost."
"The more basic versions do not scale."
"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."
"Upgrading the software on the appliance feels to me like it's going to be a little bit more work than I originally anticipated."
"The cost could be reduced."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"They have radio buttons that allow multiselection, which is not intuitive."
"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."
"The solution could do more by improving compatibility in terms of supporting other OS."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I assume clients use Druva Phoenix because it is cheaper than other products."
"We’ve had experience with the data center for a while and we have had solutions that were able to support older versions of the operating systems that we needed. I would like for Druva to support it as well."
"Druva Phoenix's pricing is based on the service provided, and it's reasonable. The cost of the service will depend on the size of your data and the number of virtual machines being backed up. However, the pricing structure is straightforward and easy to understand."
"It's very costly. Normal people wouldn't understand how their credits are calculated. It's pretty complex."
"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 upfront cost of purchasing a license for the hardware is quite steep."
"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."
"We have never questioned whether it is worth it because it so obviously is a great value."
"I am not sure how much it costs, but I know it's expensive."
"Quorum OnQ can be described as a medium-priced product...There are no ingress and egress charges in the product."
