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 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."
"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."
"Asigra is a cost effective solution and very competitive in the market."
"Asigra's agent-less capabilities make it a very convenient solution to implement."
"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 agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"The security and the ransomware protection are most valuable."
"Rubrik has brought all of our backups under a single pane of glass and made recovery extremely simple."
"The ease of use and innovation are the features that stand out for us."
"The main benefit is that we are secured in terms of workloads. We know that if we need to restore any VMs, or even any files inside a VM, that we will succeed 100 percent. This means that we don't need to spend much time administering the backup environment because we know it is self-healing and efficient. So, we are spending that time on something else, which is always a plus."
"What I like about Rubrik is its strong focus on security, particularly in combating ransomware threats."
"I would estimate that Rubrik recovery testing saves us 80% in time as compared to our prior solution."
"Time dedicated to backup was drastically reduced."
"I would rate the solution's web interface at eight out of ten. It's just fantastic and intuitive. It's so easy to use. I've never done any formal training on Rubrik, but I was able to quickly come to grips with its capabilities."
 

Cons

"I think the product needs more diversity in Hyper-V."
"The management could be a bit better."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"More integration with leading storage solutions."
"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"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 wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."
"It needs to support more applications natively, like MySQL/MariaDB."
"The Polaris piece could use improvement. When you get a report and you have events that are suspicious, you cannot drill down and find out why it's suspicious."
"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 are some features to improve on in Rubrik. For instance, they should have a tool where we can integrate with our SAP HANA."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. After the licensing, the price tends to go up as time goes by."
"The functionality is missing, but they are very receptive to our thoughts and ideas."
"It would be nice if they could work on the pricing a bit."
"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. Across 90 days of snapshots, which one is a particularly large one? Looking at the data holistically could be a lot easier."
 

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 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."
"It is a great value, but its cost is still a bit high."
"Rubrik is an all inclusive price. No additional implementation costs or licencing."
"There is a license requirement for the solution. If you expand or if the maintenance period expires, there's a license renewal as well."
"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 are on an annual license to use Rubrik and it is priced well."
"It’s simple, straightforward, and we were able to see 50% hard savings."
"Rubrik's support is definitely on the expensive side, but I consider it to be top of the line. We incur no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."
