Quorum onQ Reviews

Simple, easy to use and effective as a corrective control.

Some hiccups over the years but support was able to iron them out.

Allows me to make use of my own server rooms for backup appliance replication without paying someone else to host.

Some of the features are confusing at first.

Once configured, it works well. Adding new server vm's is pretty straight forward

Requires some knowledge of XenServer. Freeing up space can be combersome.

The concept of 3 layers of backup and DR

Deployment and overall product delivery.

The primary reason we selected Quorum was for the on perm backup with cloud replication. The ability to launch a VM from the cloud in case of an emergency was a big bonus.

I have not experienced a disaster so I don't currently have a con. The customer service is top tier.

Quorum does exactly what they advertise. What really sets them apart is their technical support. They are always there with top-notch engineers to help you solve issues, or recover from the unexpected.

I really haven't found any problems with Quorum, and I have been a customer for about 5 years.

Software is very easy to setup and has great options in terms of back times. Can be daily for some servers while a file server can be hourly depending upon if backup window will back up entire server within 1 hour. It is great being able to backup a server hourly, pretty amazing. Back in the day a weekly back was acceptable and was more work. Too many features to list...

Can get a little pricey but Quorum will cover you behind when or if disaster strikes... Backups are not needed until they are needed, which for some can be too late...

When we were evaluating backup systems, Quorum was the only one that worked in our environment.

Our OnQ is a proprietary system. We've had several issues with the system over the years, not only with the system (hardware and software), but administratively at various levels of the organization.

The ability to spin up a virtual server during a time like we are in with cyber security threats looming around the corner was massive for us. The software is easy to use the the support staff is very knowledgeable.

The initial setup can be a bit daunting but once it is configured it hums along with no issue.

The techs help to setup the software so it was easy to implement on our servers, once a year do a review and help to update software and I get daily reports of the backup completion. That fact that it is also our disaster recovery machine really gives me peace of mind that I needed.

Only con, was that one of the machines failed and they didn't really have a solution to fix it. Should have sent a box so I could of sent it back. Luckily, it was a machine I didn't really need as had another upgraded one.

Web GUI is really easy to use, even for a novice user.

Running updates requires an OnQ tech to apply the update, I wish it were easier though it has never been a hassle.

Very simple and easy to use. I can train my team to use without confusing them

a little on the expensive side, other than this no complaints on this and will continue to use :)

I love the layout of this property management system. It’s very organized from checking in guests to running reports.

I do wish there was a way to mark a guest a do not rent to prevent the guest from making future reservations.

I was impressed with the level of service provided, tech support is amazing. OnQ offers full protection of our data, which includes automatic DR testing, full backup and instant recovery, replication and more.

Probably the UI can be improved in terms of usability.

Simply put, this software does exactly what is designed to do. It delivers a backup and disaster recovery platform that works flawlessly. It is also a turnkey solution that provides local and remote backup, file recovery, DR and archive that is managed in one, very easy to use interface. Configuration of the platform is a breeze.

I have been in the IT industry for over 30 years and there are very few platforms that I do not have at least a small annoyance to complain about other than OnQ. I have been using it for almost 10 years and I have yet to find a single fault with it.

Very simple product to setup, good price, and great customer support.

No major issues, support resolves the few things that have come up.

HA capabilities not to mention the DR off-site capability as well. Performs very well and very reliable.

Some self test fails, limited restore options, complicated performing bare metal restores, and clunky UI.

The user-friendly management portal takes the complexity out of configuring, performing, and modifying backups and restores.

Until the most recent upgrade I would have said the lack of a dashboard and easy to read reports, but that is now a standard feature of the newest release.

I like the organization of this OnQ portal the most. Once I'm on the dashboard, it's easy to look at the studies I'm working with and organize the documents by study, protocol, type of document, etc. Often times when I log onto IRB website's, it's because I'm looking for something in particular, usually some type of recruitment document. With OnQ, I can type in "recruitment" and everything related to that will show up in my search. It cuts down time and makes it easy for me to find what I need.

The one thing that can be tricky is getting to the material I need. Once you log in, you either go to the documents & correspondence or the workspace. I usually go to the workspace because most of the other IRBs that I work with keep their documents in a space labeled similarly. But this is not a fault on OnQ, it's just what I'm accustomed to.

- Complete peace of mind in regards to my backup and DR environment - Automatically creates a standby clone of all my protected servers - DRaaS or physical appliances - Ready made test environment - Outstanding Support

Reporting on my version (3.9) is somewhat weak. Not geared for larger environments (in my version, I believe 4.0 has rectified this)
