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

"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"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."
"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 client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"The solution has been very stable."
"For data security, anomaly detection, site monitoring, and threat hunting are very important features that help customers."
"Mounting recent backups to create new servers rather than cloning servers in VMware drastically cut down required time."
"Rubrik has allowed our Managed Backup product to be elevated from a home-brewed concoction of free backup products wrapped in our special glue to a modern, intelligent, single-pane-of-glass orchestration engine."
"Rubrik has improved our organization by minimizing downtime (in case of an incident was to occur)."
"Easy, no need to worry about managing backup jobs."
"I think the best feature is its masterless architecture."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of Rubrik for me is its user-friendliness and efficiency."
 

Cons

"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"The management could be a bit better."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"More integration with leading storage solutions."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The UI could do with a facelift."
"I think the product needs more diversity in Hyper-V."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"We had some stability issues; we encountered some bugs and glitches."
"It needs to support more applications natively, like MySQL/MariaDB."
"The deployment and configuration of the backup service is something that could be streamlined a little bit, particularly when you're trying to do a SQL workload."
"The deployment and configuration of the backup service is something that could be streamlined a little bit, particularly when you're trying to do a SQL workload. You have to install a backup service on the server. You only have to do it once and then you're done, but you have to do that on every server that you want to protect."
"When errors do occur, it can be a somewhat painful process to get to the bottom of issues."
"I would like to see the entire Office 365 product suite backed up by Rubrik. For instance, they do SharePoint and Exchange online, but they don't back up Microsoft Teams."
"It does not offer image-level backups for Hyper-V 2012."
"The price of Rubrik is too high, especially when you are considering a change in the total backup solution."
 

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."
"It is a great value, but its cost is still a bit high."
"The initial setup cost includes support and maintenance costs, followed by a monthly fee."
"I rate the pricing an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"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."
"We pay yearly and it's based on the number of bricks."
"Some people say it is expensive, but you get what you pay for. If you want a Maserati, you have to pay for it. If you want to buy a Porsche, you have to pay for it."
"Its price tends to go up with time. Its pricing definitely has room for improvement. If you negotiate right with them, you might get a good price. Support is a part of the package, and every three years, when we renew our contract, we get new hardware."
"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."
