Quest Support policy
Full support: For customers with a current maintenance contract, Quest Data Protection Support provides call-in or email support for the current major and minor release, when patched to the latest maintenance release. That release is known as N. Quest also fully supports N - 1. For Rapid Recovery, Quest also provides limited support for N - 2.
Limited support: Quest Data Protection Support may attempt to answer questions on other versions of our products, provided resources are available. However, if you are using an unsupported or discontinued version, no new patches or code fixes will be created for those versions. In such cases, we encourage you to upgrade to a currently supported version of the product.

To understand full support, limited support, and discontinued support, consult the detailed policy on the website referenced above.
New features
The following new features have been added to Rapid Recovery in release 6.5, or were not previously documented in earlier releases.
- Azure Storage repository - Azure specific backup storage that is more cost-efficient than running DVM repositories in the cloud. See Azure Repository
- Synthetic incrementals - Optimized backups that take less space in repositories compared to full base images. Synthetic incremental backups can be configured to automatically occur when Rapid Recovery cannot find the changed blocks.
