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

"Since we have implemented Asigra we don’t have an administrator to do manual backup to tapes and external HDD; everything is automated and there are no hassles for the administrator."
"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."
"It allows our backup engineers to build great relationships with customers as they know their data is being protected by best-in-class software."
"Smooth integration into customer's environment, interactive UI."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"Virtual Disaster Recovery in version 13 is a game-changer, especially for VMWare shops."
"Once you have Asigra, you are set, it’s a rock solid platform that works every time."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
"Disk mount that lets a restore happen immediately, no need to re-hydrate."
"Rubrik is an easy and automatic solution that needs no manual intervention."
"Rubrik's immutability feature ensures the security of our backups by preventing unauthorized alterations. The most effective feature for simplifying our data backup processes is the ability to perform on-demand or scheduled backups and restores, which greatly enhances manageability. The security and compliance features have had a positive impact on our data management practices. We utilize Rubrik not only for virtual machine backups but also for backing up approximately twenty terabytes of unstructured data, including file shares and documents. This allows users to easily restore deleted documents using the Soft Delete feature, depending on the backup frequency."
"Due to this effective, faster backup and recovery solution, we are now able to focus on other creative tasks to meet our entire pipeline, and we save around one million dollars a year."
"It has a ​single pane of glass interface."
"The search functionality is second to none as the speed of the search is fast across the whole system and predictive."
"Since switching to Rubrik, our backup times have decreased significantly, going from two and a half days to one and a half hours for certain systems."
"Rubrik is able to hit about 95% to 98% of the things that we want to do, which is not going to be the case for every company, but it will fit most customers' needs."
 

Cons

"The UI could do with a facelift."
"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."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"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."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"The management could be a bit better."
"The Office 365 protection could be improved."
"Initially, we encountered compatibility challenges with some of our technologies."
"Looking at how the data is broken down, we can see the total story, but sometimes it's difficult to see how big a particular snapshot is."
"There could be better reporting and better filtering."
"I hope to see enhancements in areas like data governance and the incorporation of new features in future updates."
"In terms of what could be improved with Rubrik, we need to improve the backup for remote sites. The competitors are stronger in terms of their remote office back up. Rubrik needs to improve to be stronger for backup. This is the main thing."
"In terms of what could be improved with Rubrik, we need to improve the backup for remote sites."
"The functionality is missing, but they are very receptive to our thoughts and ideas."
 

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."
"Rubrik is a little bit expensive, but it's worth the price."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"Rubrik is fairly priced."
"Rubrik was probably the most expensive solution but in the long run, it's justified by the value of the data that it protects."
"The setup cost is a bit high, but the solution is an all-in-one solution."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
"It is a great value, but its cost is still a bit high."
"Rubrik is not cheap. Hopefully, you can archive your data on cheap storage to keep the investment minimal."
