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

"In terms of data recovery, both the performance and reliability have been excellent."
"The data application is working well, and it does manage to match data when using the data option."
"The most valuable feature is the storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good."
"The solution's main focus is on security and ransomware."
"Rubrik Go is very simple to use."
"The standout feature is its ransomware protection capabilities."
"The solution's most valuable features are its ease of use and performance."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use for backing up VMs."
"The automation capabilities streamline our operations significantly."
"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

"There are limitations with new hardware where it does not support failover and does not support the three-star bank group."
"They should include the capability to back up on-premises environments."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster."
"I would like to see better integration with applications, such as those from Microsoft, to make backing up from those applications simpler."
"The AWS backups 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."
"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."
"Rubrik Go's security visibility could be improved."
"Rubrik Go could improve on the Kubernetes side; they should have more features for Kubernetes backup and orchestration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Rubrick Go is quite expensive - I would rate its pricing four out of ten."
"The client pays for the solution depending on what they use."
"Rubrik Go is more cost-effective than similar solutions by other vendors."
"This is a very costly solution."
"It's an expensive product if you compare it to traditional backup solutions; however, if you compare it as a total cost of ownership for a solution, it is not."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"I would rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten. The solution's costs are monthly."
