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

"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"Once you have Asigra, you are set, it’s a rock solid platform that works every time."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup 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."
"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."
"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."
"The cost is very reasonable; it's one of the cheapest options on the market, and any company can easily afford this product."
"Rubrik has brought all of our backups under a single pane of glass and made recovery extremely simple."
"CloudOut, because only blocks are pushed after compression and deduplication, not raw sizing."
"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."
"There is a live-restore feature, their Live Mount, and the way it works we can instantly recover a VM, a past backup, to be directly attached to our VMware environment. Rubrik will act as a disk for it. It's like an instant restore. Within a few minutes our VM is up and running. And then, if we want to restore it, we can just migrate it to our actual storage."
"The solution is extremely stable. They've been phenomenal, especially for a young company."
"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."
"The file search feature across all backups has been helpful."
"We like this product because of its simplicity, pricing and reliability."
 

Cons

"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"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."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"Lacks availability in a NFR format of virtual appliances to test them in public cloud environment."
"I would love to be able to just get from the dashboard to a file that I need, or a system that I need."
"Its reporting can be improved. Sometimes, I need to create reports to know whether something is available or not, how much frontend data is being protected, etc. Rubrik gives a lot of things in the report, which can be confusing."
"We had some stability issues; we encountered some bugs and glitches."
"I would love to be able to just get from the dashboard to a file that I need, or a system that I need."
"I'd like to see a cloud backup service for smaller customer environments that may not support a physical or virtual appliance."
"The Office 365 protection could be improved."
"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'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."
"The product is not cheap, but for good reason. It simply works and is very fast."
"We pay yearly and it's based on the number of bricks."
"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."
"Rubrik was probably the most expensive solution but in the long run, it's justified by the value of the data that it protects."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"Rubrik is not the cheapest solution, but we've been happy with the time savings that we have seen. At least from what we have spent so far, we have been happy with the return on investment."
