Good policies related to data

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 feature for me is the policy management capabilities"
"The flexible ways you can get to the data and the options that it gives you for backing up your valuable data are what make its offsite storage so valuable."
"The most useful feature is the one-click recovery."
"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."
"This is true peace of mind for all IT admins."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"It provides a smooth training experience and easy terminology for those in the advocacy world."
"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."
"This is a product that works well, is easy to install, and easy to use."
"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."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more integration with different platforms."
"Basically, the only thing I do not like about it, it was keyed off Lotus Notes."
"I would like to see iSCSI support added so that NAS storage servers could be protected."
"Quorum OnQ is limited and does not support all the Linux flavours, and it currently only supports Red Hat-based systems, for example, Ubuntu is not supported."
"I paid for subscription of Firewall. I paid for subscription of endpoint protection. Thet should introduce single subscription for all services."
"They have radio buttons that allow multiselection, which is not intuitive."
"Better integration with cloud-based solutions like Azure and Office 365 is needed."
"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."
"Quorum OnQ's user interface is not very attractive and should be made more attractive."
"We found that some of the live SQL databases we were backing up would be inconsistent when we would restore them."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"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."
"The solution’s pricing is economical."
"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."
"The upfront cost of purchasing a license for the hardware is quite steep."
"When we first got the Quorum the licensing was different."
"We have never questioned whether it is worth it because it so obviously is a great value."
"The total for our current solution's licensing is about $14,000 for 12 servers for three years."
