Streamlined data management reduces workload and costs significantly for the team
We are planning to use Rubrik Go's AI-powered insights for predictive analytics, but have not implemented this yet. I cannot provide updates on Rubrik Go's capability to automate data management tasks because I have not used that feature yet. Rubrik Go's integration capabilities with cloud providers have benefited my multi-cloud environment significantly. Rubrik Go's subscription model has helped me align my data protection investments, which is a good option as I am one of the customers who have deployed this subscription option. I am definitely satisfied with the licensing model as it is very simplified and easy to understand. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Rubrik Go a 9.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The main strengths of Acronis lie in its cost-effectiveness, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive services."
"We can use the tool to set up an automated backup from our on-premises server directly to the cloud."
"You can backup whatever you want, anything from your mobile phone to your OneDrive."
"The disaster recovery feature."
"The customer service and support are really good."
"It provides quick backup recovery."
"Acronis has carved out a really good name for themselves and they're a trusted backup software system, and it's mainly from reliability."
"It is easy to use. I don't need any help to figure out how to do it. It is also very easy to install and upgrade. It is very simple and easy to use for restoring. It supports universal restoration. I can restore a full machine to another hardware with this, which is a very good feature."
"Rubrik Go is both very scalable and stable."
"Rubrik Go is very simple to use."
"The standout feature is its ransomware protection capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is the storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good."
"In terms of Rubrik Go's most valuable features, their VM features are good."
"We use the solution as a backup for our virtual environment and SQL databases."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use for backing up VMs."
"The most valuable feature with Rubrik is that even though the data is already in the cloud, it's an AWS, so by accessing the on-prem appliance you can still search because it is indexed from that appliance."
 

Cons

"Reporting is not on par. It needs some more information as per customer or partner interest. I hope Acronis is working on it."
"We'd like to see more integration for Nutanix, Oracle, et cetera."
"Technical support needs improvement. They are too slow to respond, and when it comes to backups, it's critical to deal with issues quickly."
"The speed of the backup process in the solution can be improved"
"One of the areas where the product could be improved is its online cloud backup."
"I don't see any room for improvement in the solution itself, but their marketing could be better. Dealers and customers aren't aware of this product or the company, so maybe they should concentrate more on marketing."
"In the solution, you have the customization option for reports but it is limited and should allow more customizations in terms of how long or when you can do the reports."
"Technical support could be improved, they're not very timely in their response."
"Rubrik Go could improve on the Kubernetes side; they should have more features for Kubernetes backup and orchestration."
"If you're going for Rubrik, you are not opting for the tape library because Rubrik doesn't have the fiber cable connected to the tape library."
"I would like to see better integration with applications, such as those from Microsoft, to make backing up from those applications simpler."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"Rubrik Go's security visibility could be improved."
"If you were to compare it to, say, EMC, the availability of the documentation, training programs, and end-user education aren't as good. Rubrik could improve this."
"Integration with the client is something that needs to be improved."
"Technical support isn't that good, especially if you compare it to a competitor like EMC."
