Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It works well as a backup and as a service."
"The most valuable feature is its ease of use."
"It provides an easy data migration process from on-premise to cloud."
"The most valuable feature is the daily incremental site backup."
"The most valuable features we have found are the flexibility in the services offered."
"Reporting is one of the key elements that are valuable for C-suite executives. In terms of monitoring, the solution provides comprehensive details into ongoing processes, flagging issues and warnings as necessary."
"RDS backup is one of the most crucial components of any client's cloud environment, so we generally use that. Additionally, we store EBS snapshots in S3."
"It also saves costs and is quick."
"Rubrik is stable and easy to use."
"When it comes to saving time managing our backups, Rubrik has saved us a lot of time compared to what we were using. It feels like it has saved us lifetimes of time because the process used to be difficult. It's not just the day to time savings. When something goes wrong, that's where the real time savings comes into play. We are able to get back to where we need to be more confidently and with much fewer steps."
"It has a single pane of glass interface."
"The solution is stable."
"The tech support is extremely helpful."
"They have a great PowerShell module and easy mediums to speak to the people who create and enhance them."
"Its reporting is most valuable. I like how it reports that everything is successfully backed up. It provides a summarized report that I can give to auditors and management."
"One platform for instant recovery."
"The initial setup of the solution is complex."
"The service disconnects a lot."
"The AWS Backup backend reporting is a major area that needs improvement. We would be very excited if we can see some reporting, such as trends. We do understand that there are reports available for S3 Bucket, in which the AWS backend stores the data. However, if we can receive holistic reporting, then it would be very helpful for us."
"They should work on their visual capabilities."
"It requires a lot of time to connect the snapshot, identify the files, and restore a single file manually."
"The notifications on the backup and on the mobile app could be more useful. If they could arrange notes or notifications properly and offer services for managing it in our region, it would be helpful for us."
"To create a plan and for all the configuration, one has to do multiple steps, which could be organized in a much simpler way, making the user experience better."
"When it comes to encrypting data, it is not so convenient."
"We would like to be able to do granular restores directly from Exchange. Also, more granular management of VM backups would help."
"Its cost is high."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. After the licensing, the price tends to go up as time goes by."
"Rubrik can only leverage cloud storage for archiving and has no cloud failover."
"The integrated reporting is not really that nicely built. The reporting functionality could definitely be a little bit more customizable from an administration perspective, with an easier to understand interface."
"I would like to have a built-in index searching ability of files/system files within the Rubrik interface to determine if a file or item exists, rather than just recovering it, and then doing a search for the file afterwards."
"The only thing that can be improved is catering for open source databases because at the moment it doesn't cater for Mongo, MySQL, and Postgres."
"It needs more storage array integration options and an easier restore for files that download using a browser."
