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

"Asigra is a cost effective solution and very competitive in the market."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"Simplicity, very easy to restore user data, means that we don't have to request off site tapes to be delivered to the office, can easily access the cloud data and restore most data within minutes."
"It allows our backup engineers to build great relationships with customers as they know their data is being protected by best-in-class software."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
"Virtual Disaster Recovery in version 13 is a game-changer, especially for VMWare shops."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"Saved tons of man hours on not having to do constant babysitting."
"One of the best quote is: “it looks simple because we make it simple”, Bipul Sinha."
"It has a ​single pane of glass interface."
"We are now able to perform fast backups and very quick restores, and we have a tool to restore a virtual machine with Windows Server 2012 R2 from about 1 TB in around 2 minutes up to login."
"The product is simply easy to use, efficient, and its out-of-the-box configuration just works."
"We like this product because of its simplicity, pricing and reliability."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Rubrik is a very scalable and high-performing backup restore solution."
 

Cons

"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"The management could be a bit better."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"Technical Support: 5/10, Due to different timezones it would always be difficult to get hold of a tech."
"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."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"It needs to keep innovating to stay relevant in the data management field."
"The price of Rubrik is too high, especially when you are considering a change in the total backup solution."
"Rubrik's disaster recovery capabilities could be improved."
"In terms of what could be improved with Rubrik, we need to improve the backup for remote sites."
"Based on my experience with Rubrik, I think they could improve by providing more customer-friendly technical support, even though they currently offer the best support."
"With multiple Rubrik clusters setup in an environment, it becomes painfully obvious that this product needs a central management console."
"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."
"It is not Windows Cluster-Aware at the moment or Exchange DAG-Aware. If they add support for these particular use cases, it would be even better."
 

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."
"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."
"Rubrik is fairly priced."
"The pricing has been quite good from our perspective, in terms of being able to negotiate with the Rubrik team to get the product that we want and be able to sell that out to our end customers."
"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."
"Rubrik is a little bit expensive, but it's worth the price."
"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 is not cheap. Hopefully, you can archive your data on cheap storage to keep the investment minimal."
"Rubrik is priced high, but it was the solution that was providing us encryption and was secure. The solution price is high, but you get what you pay for."
