Affordable, easy to use, and offers good pricing

Technical support has improved my data management process but I encounter GUI and cost challenges
The solution is available in the Azure Marketplace, but approaching directly is more cost-effective. The Marketplace approach incurs additional platform and reporting costs. We initially built Rubrik at host level and DB level. We encountered latency issues when reverting back, with numerous snapshots available. This resulted in increased costs and occupied spaces. I performed manual deletion of snapshots and verified with the Rubrik team for confirmation. The GUI reporting functionality lacks flexibility. For instance, obtaining specific server reports considering drive space and backup quantities is not possible, as it only provides overall reporting.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Asigra's agent-less capabilities make it a very convenient solution to implement."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"Cloud backup is easier to manage and administer than our previous tape solution."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"Flexibility really means a lot for us. Being able to address almost every client backup and recovery requirement means that we have a tremendous amount of confidence as do our partners that Blueshift is going to be able to deploy a solution quickly and efficiently."
"Virtual Disaster Recovery in version 13 is a game-changer, especially for VMWare shops."
"We can provide a reliable service to our customers."
"Once you have Asigra, you are set, it’s a rock solid platform that works every time."
"Rubrik, when compared to Cohesity, Dell, and Veritas, was the best of the four."
"The most valuable feature of Rubrik for me is its user-friendliness and efficiency."
"Rubrik's automation has really impacted my operations positively by providing smooth automation for most backup and recovery tasks."
"I highly recommend the solution as it's very user-friendly and easy to work with out-of-the-box; there's nothing complex about it."
"Rubrik has absolutely reduced the time we spend on recovery testing by about 75 percent, reduced the time we spend on managing backups by the same amount, and the reduction in recovery time is even greater."
"The ease of use and innovation are the features that stand out for us."
"Rubrik is critical for our organization because it keeps our data safe and helps us meet all of our POs and TOs."
"The Live Mount feature is excellent; it's useful for the backup administrator and end user."
 

Cons

"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The UI could do with a facelift."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"The management could be a bit better."
"We would like to be able to do granular restores directly from Exchange. Also, more granular management of VM backups would help."
"Needs integration with video CD (coming in the next release) and a multi-tenant GUI."
"The user interface could be improved, it's pretty rough."
"Rubrik can only leverage cloud storage for archiving and has no cloud failover."
"There are some features to improve on in Rubrik. For instance, they should have a tool where we can integrate with our SAP HANA."
"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 is a lot more expensive than other solutions, but you get what you pay for."
"I have a personal want which might not necessarily make sense with Rubrik as a company or Rubrik as a software, but it would be really nice if they could also handle things like item-level backups and restores of Active Directory objects and DNS and DCP objects."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
"The setup cost is a bit high, but the solution is an all-in-one solution."
"We pay yearly and it's based on the number of bricks."
"Rubrik is priced high, but it was the solution that was providing us encryption and was secure. The solution price is high, but you get what you pay for."
"The pricing has been quite good from our perspective, in terms of being able to negotiate with the Rubrik team to get the product that we want and be able to sell that out to our end customers."
"Rubrik's support is definitely on the expensive side, but I consider it to be top of the line. We incur no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."
"We do perpetual licensing... It was all based on the amount of storage we needed to use. We did a cost analysis compared to Tivoli and it was in line with other solutions."
"The solution is expensive for small businesses."
"I don't remember the cost, but I know that for Veeam, we were spending almost $250,000 a year for 205 licenses. It was an enterprise version. When we purchased Rubrik, it was just a little bit more. It was not a terribly huge amount, and if I recall, that was for three years of support as well. So, Veeam priced itself out of the market at a certain point in time."
