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

"Smooth integration into customer's environment, interactive UI."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
"The cost is very reasonable; it's one of the cheapest options on the market, and any company can easily afford this product."
"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."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"The Asigra product on the whole is a fantastic solution and I would highly recommend this as it delivers everything our business and our subsequent customers required."
"Time dedicated to backup was drastically reduced, with reduced infrastructure complexity and easy, fast restores."
"Rubrik is a very scalable and high-performing backup restore solution."
"Replacing these four with Rubrik has definitely saved us a lot of money."
"Having said that, we can instantly recover an entire customer's environment in minutes and run happily on the system until a storage vMotion is completed to production storage without any issues."
"Rubrik can also serve as a secondary host for emergency recoveries."
"The product's protection against ransomware is a significant benefit."
"The web interface is user-friendly, clean, and it provides a good summary of what you're protecting at a glance."
"Rubrik support is outstanding."
 

Cons

"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"The management could be a bit better."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"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."
"I think the product needs more diversity in Hyper-V."
"At present, downloading the relevant files and placing them into a directory on the DS-System is a little cumbersome and open to error/malicious use."
"I would like a way to set monthly backups on a certain date and time."
"They need to find a solution for SMBs. It is currently only suitable for enterprises or big customers."
"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. We should also be able to customize them."
"If I could take a snapshot from a physical and be able to stand it up as a virtual immediately without the need to rebuild an entire system and restoring files, that would be HUGE."
"They support Hyper-V and it works with our CloudOut, the cloud DR, but they seem to add features for VMware first and Hyper-V gets added second or sometimes several releases after the VMware feature comes out."
"They have what's called an organization which means different groups of access to Rubrik, but the alerting only goes to the admins. My suggestion to Rubrik is to make sure that the separate organizations or groups of users get the appropriate alerting."
"The licensing cost is quite high. That is something that needs to be worked out, because so many times it happens that the team does not have the budget or there are other issues at that time. Cost has become an important factor in deciding whether to continue with the Rubrik solution."
"Rubrik can only leverage cloud storage for archiving and has no cloud failover."
 

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."
"There are additional costs like maintenance, and there are some features on their central management piece that don't come with our licensing."
"Due to this effective, faster backup and recovery solution, we are now able to focus on other creative tasks to meet our entire pipeline. So, we have seen ROI in terms of the improvement of productivity in our team. We save around one million dollars a year."
"Rubrik's competitive pricing and strong return on investment make it a compelling choice, especially compared to alternatives like Data Domain and Avamar. Commvault was considered but deemed too expensive."
"Rubrik is a little bit expensive, but it's worth the price."
"We are on an annual license to use Rubrik and it is priced well."
"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."
"The pricing and licensing of Rubrik is better than products that we've had in the past. It was quite a bit cheaper than Commvault and NetBackup."
