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.

An easy to maintains solution useful to manage daily backup and the restoration of backup files
I don't see any scope for improvement in the product since it is a well-established solution. My company has not faced any production-related issues with Veritas System Recovery, as it has stayed quite stable in our environment. The product's integration capabilities are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required. The documentation and reporting areas also need to be improved.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Having the ability to reduce recovery time, for critical resources, from multiple hours to a matter of minutes, is huge."
"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."
"This is the best money I spend on my budget."
"I have used the BMR (Bare Metal Restore) in several emergencies and it has absolutely saved my bacon."
"One of the most valuable features was the usability, since many of the features were very straightforward. The backup and restoration process was also very fast. Although we weren't able to fully test the scenarios, one of the features was that we could have it restored on a remote site. However, since we were on-prem, we weren't able to test the remote site restoration."
"Quorum OnQ has a good ransomware protection feature, and customer service and support were very good."
"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."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"It has a user-friendly interface."
"With Veritas System Recovery, we have the option to run an infinite number of full backups according to our requirements."
"The solution has helped reduce my company's cost by around 50 to 60 percent."
"You can back up the whole image, not just files and folders, but the image from the server, and you can restore the whole image."
"Offers good recovery quickly."
"The solution captures the system state, so when we restore the system, it will be restored to the state it was in at the time of the backup."
"It has a user-friendly interface and configures and integrates nicely with other products."
"The tool helps automate system recovery. The solution is most useful in scenarios involving restoration to a different environment. For instance, when migrating from a physical server to a virtual one, the tool facilitates conversion."
 

Cons

"I would like to see iSCSI support added so that NAS storage servers could be protected."
"The more basic versions do not scale."
"They need integration with other platforms."
"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."
"It feels to me like it's going to be a little bit more work than I originally anticipated when upgrading the appliance. I haven't done that yet so I can't speak from true experience, but I went through the project plan and it feels to me like there's quite a number of pieces and components and things that have to be done. Quorum is going to manage the rollout, but in starting the initial conversation there were a lot of unanswered questions"
"The solution could do more by improving compatibility in terms of supporting other OS."
"There was a situation I faced in the past when I contacted the tool's support team, and it took them a while to respond."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"It needs an easier interface."
"Veritas System Recovery Manager offers some manager solutions, but there is room for improvement."
"Lacks the ability to protect the database snapshot."
"For most organizations these days, their main concern is to protect their database and I think Veritas could make some improvements in that regard."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The tool's deployment could be easier. The deployment itself isn't the issue; rather, the problem lies in configuring policies and testing everything before it's ready. We invest a significant amount of time in preparing for various scenarios. However, we often encounter situations where changes have occurred since our initial preparations. This can render the automation less valuable."
"Veritas System Recovery’s pricing and local support need some improvement."
"The reliability is sometimes lacking."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Quorum OnQ can be described as a medium-priced product...There are no ingress and egress charges in the product."
"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 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 quote the price of Quorum to customers, they find it expensive."
"The upfront cost of purchasing a license for the hardware is quite steep."
"The total for our current solution's licensing is about $14,000 for 12 servers for three years."
"My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There is no need to pay any additional fees apart from the licensing costs attached to the solution."
