Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It offers an easy, quick backup and restore of files and VMs. Also, the "Google-like " search for files is awesome."
"The system automatically takes down the nodes one at a time and performs the upgrade and brings the node back up before proceeding to the next. Upgrades can now be done at any time with a high level of confidence."
"It has a lightning fast restore."
"The implementation and training are all done through the sales engineer, which provides for a seamless and great experience when it comes to starting with a new vendor."
"The ability to essentially instantly recover a VM and have it run on the Cohesity Platform while all those bits are technically being recovered in the background is useful to us."
"Cohesity has very simple reports to help you stay in the know of which servers are being backed up or not."
"We like that we can use production data to run intensive reports that would otherwise bog down the production server."
"We are saving valuable datacenter rack space, which is critical as we evaluate co-location options."
"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."
"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."
"One of the biggest features is that, even on the absolutely run-of-the-mill box, if I lose any one of my servers I can automatically bring it up virtually on the physical onQ Quorum device."
"The solution is very cost effective."
"It is a stable solution."
"The most valuable feature of Quorum OnQ is quick recovery."
"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."
"In terms of what could be improved, it just needs some maturity."
"The support team sometimes takes a long time to resolve issues, although, in our experience, these have been specific things like SQL blobs."
"Better documentation is needed because the lack of information has necessitated having our team depend more heavily on Cohesity support."
"Add the ability to delete View Boxes and External Targets in the GUI."
"Cohesity cluster upgrades have not been as easy as a single button click. They are a manual process that requires upgrading each node into a cluster individually."
"Quality testing of upgrades should be somewhat improved."
"Non-cloud services need improvement."
"Cohesity DataProtect can improve in the area of databases. We have had some challenges with both Cohesity and Rubrik being able to effectively back up in a timely manner the SQL Oracle workloads."
"At times the email notifications don't go out, but a quick reset always fixes that problem."
"It would be beneficial if file culling could be more granular."
"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."
"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."
"We found that some of the live SQL databases we were backing up would be inconsistent when we would restore them."
"Lacks compatibility in terms of supporting other OS."
"They need integration with other platforms."
"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."
