Cohesity DataProtect and Quorum OnQ are data protection solutions. Cohesity DataProtect excels in deployment simplicity, while Quorum OnQ is noted for its robust feature set, particularly in disaster recovery.
Features: Cohesity DataProtect offers scalability, integrated ransomware protection, and seamless cloud integration. Quorum OnQ provides comprehensive disaster recovery capabilities, automated testing, and instant failover features.
Room for Improvement: Cohesity DataProtect needs better reporting and documentation, and can enhance user interface stability. Quorum OnQ could improve integration with third-party tools, intuitive setup processes, and user interface design.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Cohesity DataProtect is easy to deploy and has responsive customer service. Quorum OnQ, though more complex to deploy, offers thorough customer support.
Pricing and ROI: Cohesity DataProtect is competitively priced and offers a strong ROI, particularly for large-scale deployments. Quorum OnQ has higher initial setup costs but its investment is justified by features and reliability, giving a valuable ROI for disaster recovery.
Using Cohesity DataProtect is easier to manage, and it simplifies various components into one architecture, reducing the need for extensive human resources to manage backups.
The support can depend on the region, and for larger customers, I advise having a Technical Account Manager for better assistance.
For the support, I can provide a rating of four only because they initially provide some steps, but later say they are not sure, which is a problem in a production environment.
Cohesity DataProtect is built on a scale-out architecture, which means it can effectively scale to meet various needs.
On the whole, any problems were more related to hardware limitations rather than issues with Cohesity DataProtect itself.
There is room to improve the user interface of Cohesity DataProtect for more intuitive navigation.
While there are improvements to be made, such as providing support for older systems like IBM iSeries and tandem systems from HP, the solution overall shifts from older methods to modern practices.
The URL for our environments is the same, making it confusing for management when handling different departments with different needs.
I find Cohesity DataProtect to be expensive.
It's a little expensive.
Cohesity DataProtect's architecture ensures that agent installations automatically reflect in the dashboard, allowing for seamless integration into backup jobs.
The platform is based on a scale-out architecture with each node having compute, RAM, SSD, and HDD.
Some of the most valuable features of Cohesity DataProtect for me include instant mass restore, anomaly detection, and its ability to handle large data volumes effectively.
Quorum OnQ provides an elevated ability to filter on everything from people's location to age to their voting history.
