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 multi-tenancy feature is most valuable as it allows the company to on-sell a private cloud backup and recovery solution to existing customers."
"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."
"The cost is very reasonable; it's one of the cheapest options on the market, and any company can easily afford this product."
"Smooth integration into customer's environment, interactive UI."
"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."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"You pay a premium for Rubrik, but you're getting a premium service that comes with immutable backups, instant recovery, and world-class support."
"It has a streamlined user interface, provides an improved tech support experience, and reduces time required to locate and restore data."
"We are now able to perform fast backups and very quick restores, and we have a tool to restore a virtual machine with Windows Server 2012 R2 from about 1 TB in around 2 minutes up to login."
"CloudOut, because only blocks are pushed after compression and deduplication, not raw sizing."
"Saved tons of man hours on not having to do constant babysitting."
"The most important feature is the instant recovery of virtual machines, as it allows us to restore services in minutes."
"The search functionality is second to none as the speed of the search is fast across the whole system and predictive."
"The ease of use is the most valuable feature. It is a very simple system compared to just about any other back up technology. It is extremely easy to use and very versatile."
 

Cons

"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"More integration with leading storage solutions."
"Asigra's implementation and day-to-day costs are very high; necessary features can significantly increase the cost of implementation."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"The management could be a bit better."
"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"The UI could do with a facelift."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"The product’s user interface needs improvement."
"The Office 365 protection could be improved."
"I would like to see Rubrik better integrate with Microsoft Active Directory. Instead of just backing up a full domain controller, I would like the solution to have Active Directory object knowledge so we can restore specific objects in Active Directory versus restoring the whole domain controller."
"I hope to see enhancements in areas like data governance and the incorporation of new features in future updates."
"It needs to support more applications natively, like MySQL/MariaDB."
"Price-wise, Rubrik needs improvement as it is considered expensive compared to similar competitors."
"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."
"Troubleshooting failed backups is not what it should be. Once you gather logs, deciphering them without the help of support is usually almost impossible."
 

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."
"It is an expensive product."
"It is a great value, but its cost is still a bit high."
"There is just one cost, and it includes software and hardware. So, everything is included. It is better than other solutions in terms of cost. We also have Dell EMC Avamar in our environment, and we have to pay for the hardware and data domain. We also have to pay for the software license for the data protection suite. So, based on my calculations, I find Rubrik cheaper, and we are also getting good performance."
"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 an expensive solution."
"High priced when considering a total change in backup solution."
"When we compared the overall costs, Rubrik was cheaper because the engineering and operational side required FAR LESS dedication. So, all in all, they actually were cheaper than the competition."
"The product is not cheap, but for good reason. It simply works and is very fast."
