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

"Cloud backup is easier to manage and administer than our previous tape solution."
"We can provide a reliable service to our customers."
"Smooth integration into customer's environment, interactive UI."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"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."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
"I think Rubrik is a very good backup solution; it works well, is pretty reliable, stable, and easy to use, and I don't see any negatives in Rubrik, only positives."
"Intelligent agent technology."
"Time dedicated to backup was drastically reduced."
"The fact that the API is so available to us with the playground — there's an internal and public playground — is also valuable. We can write API calls — and although I'm sure there's a way we could hurt the data — we write those calls with a lot of certainty that we won't be destroying anything. We write these API calls using really easy mechanisms and generate automation a lot faster."
"Rubrik has brought all of our backups under a single pane of glass and made recovery extremely simple."
"The security and the ransomware protection are most valuable."
"This is a centralized tool where we are able to schedule backups and perform monitoring."
"You pay a premium for Rubrik, but you're getting a premium service that comes with immutable backups, instant recovery, and world-class support."
 

Cons

"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"I wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"More integration with leading storage solutions."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"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 interface is still slightly clunky and has room for improvement. They do work with us whenever we mention anything that needs to be done or anything that we want. We find that bringing up the management interface is a little slow and not as intuitive as we would like, but it's been getting better as it evolves."
"I hope to see enhancements in areas like data governance and the incorporation of new features in future updates."
"I would like a way to set monthly backups on a certain date and time."
"I have a personal want which might not necessarily make sense with Rubrik as a company or Rubrik as a software, but it would be really nice if they could also handle things like item-level backups and restores of Active Directory objects and DNS and DCP objects."
"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."
"There are some features to improve on in Rubrik. For instance, they should have a tool where we can integrate with our SAP HANA. Directly from the HANA studio, we should be able to do a backup. That's what I'm looking forward to in the future."
"I would like to have a built-in index searching ability of files/system files within the Rubrik interface to determine if a file or item exists, rather than just recovering it, and then doing a search for the file afterwards."
"The Office 365 protection could be improved."
 

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 was probably the most expensive solution but in the long run, it's justified by the value of the data that it protects."
"The initial setup cost includes support and maintenance costs, followed by a monthly fee."
"There are additional costs like maintenance, and there are some features on their central management piece that don't come with our licensing."
"It is a great value, but its cost is still a bit high."
"We are on an annual license to use Rubrik and it is priced well."
"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."
"There is a license requirement for the solution. If you expand or if the maintenance period expires, there's a license renewal as well."
"There are additional costs for add-ons, and they recently upgraded a new cluster, which also carries a price."
