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

"Cloud backup is easier to manage and administer than our previous tape solution."
"It allows our backup engineers to build great relationships with customers as they know their data is being protected by best-in-class software."
"Simplicity, very easy to restore user data, means that we don't have to request off site tapes to be delivered to the office, can easily access the cloud data and restore most data within minutes."
"There are two primary improvements of the Asigra platform with the recent version 13.1 SP1: Virtualization: a tremendous variety of data protection solutions for virtual machines, and Cloud-2-Cloud for Office 365, Google, Amazon, etc., making this a full package of data protection platform."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"Asigra's agent-less capabilities make it a very convenient solution to implement."
"Virtual Disaster Recovery in version 13 is a game-changer, especially for VMWare shops."
"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 provides excellent customer service and technical support."
"The web-based approach is the most valuable feature."
"What I like about Rubrik is that you can back up to the cloud, it is a different kind of backup where you're not archiving the tape, and as a dedicated physical appliance you can back up locally, to another device, and even replicate data between multiple sites."
"The instant recovery aspect of the solution is the most valuable aspect for me."
"Overall the product is really good."
"Rubrik has led to improvement by reducing the amount of failed backups, leading to a reduced workload in IT operations."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"Technical Support: 5/10, Due to different timezones it would always be difficult to get hold of a tech."
"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"They should have 24/7 support for customers in different time zones. They are slow to respond to requests, and I get the impression that the ServiceDesk is overloaded."
"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"I wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."
"When errors do occur, it can be a somewhat painful process to get to the bottom of issues."
"The solution could improve by having fewer VM Stuns."
"Troubleshooting failed backups is difficult, and deciphering the logs without the help of support is usually almost impossible."
"For Rubrik, though it does a great job, it needs to keep innovating to stay relevant in the data management field."
"I would like for unmanaged backups to be able to be saved in a separate policy."
"And what about the data services, like the ability to have application-level recovery? Actually this is not included or integrated and it’s far from other products (like Veeam)."
"The reporting in the dashboard and reporting for extractions both need improvement. I would suggest making them easier to understand and use, not just out-of-the-box."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"We pay annually for the license for Rubrik. There are no additional costs. Initially, we needed to set it up, negotiate and finalize the offer."
"There are additional costs like maintenance, and there are some features on their central management piece that don't come with our licensing."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"Originally, we bought the units on perpetual licenses. Now, we have switched to Rubrik Go. I think the Rubrik Go subscription is a better model, where it is based on your onsite environment and you consume what you use."
"Rubrik is expensive, but due to its data management capabilities, customers can save a lot by reducing hardware and storage."
"Rubrik is an expensive solution."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
"The setup cost is a bit high, but the solution is an all-in-one solution."
