Quorum Delivers New Backup and Recovery Suite: Simplified, Infinitely Scalable with Unrivaled Performance

The new enterprise-class on Q 4.0 platform boasts an all inclusive disaster recovery and backup management console, simplified.

SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Quorum, the leader in one-click disaster recovery and business continuity, today announced general availability of its onQ 4.0 platform offering the industry's most complete suite of high availability, disaster recovery and hybrid cloud (DraaS) solutions.  Quorum onQ 4.0 offers one click recovery, allowing customers to cut disaster recovery time from hours to minutes. Other key highlights in onQ 4.0 are the ability for automated DR testing and sandboxing for production level patch and configuration testing. The best part is all features available in onQ 4.0 are delivered and managed from a single management console.

Key features with the onQ 4.0 platform:

    --  Instant Recovery - 1 click starts a virtual clone of production servers
    --  New UI - browser based, single view and color coded for easy problem ID
    --  Automated DR testing - clones are started and verified after each backup
    --  Sandbox environment - local subnet allows patch and configuration
        testing
    --  Migration Tools - bare metal restore to same or different hardware.
    --  Replication - compressed and encrypted backups are sent to customer DR
        site or Quorum cloud (DraaS)
    --  Archive - policy based migration and retention
    --  Backup - server image, apps and data compressed and encrypted
    --  Deduplication - both at the source and destination
The key features of the Quorum onQ 4.0 product are aimed to address clear customer and partner demand for more solution consolidation, automation and simplicity. Based on a recent study conducted by Quorum named, TheState of Disaster Recovery Report, it is clear that businesses are dealing with overwhelming complexity and cost, and are looking to simplify and consolidate solutions. It is also clear clear that businesses are looking to migrate more disaster recovery capability to the cloud or hybrid solutions. Some of the key findings of this study are:

    --  75% of respondents are leveraging cloud based disaster recovery
        solutions, with 36% using a hybrid on premise and cloud model and 39%
        using only DraaS.
    --  89% of respondents are planning on implementing more cloud based
        disaster recovery
    --  64% of respondents are using more than 3 different disaster recovery
        products with 26% using between 5-10.
    --  90% of respondents would be interested in consolidating their disaster
        recovery into one management console.
    --  Over 80% say that it takes over an hour to recover from a server
        failure, even with 72% of respondents saying that speed of backup and
        recovery is extremely critical.
There are several significant trends concerning IT leaders in this study and the full report can be viewed here.
