Affordable, easy to use, and offers good pricing
The solution is primarily used for the backup of the endpoints within our organization The solution has been very stable. It's quite easy to use and simple to navigate around. The performance has always been very good.  The pricing of the product is excellent. I wouldn't describe it as a…

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

"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."
"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."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"The cost is very reasonable; it's one of the cheapest options on the market, and any company can easily afford this product."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
"Product support team is excellent, with issues typically being resolved on the same day."
"Saved tons of man hours on not having to do constant babysitting."
"CloudOut, because only blocks are pushed after compression and deduplication, not raw sizing."
"The search functionality is second to none as the speed of the search is fast across the whole system and predictive."
"Instant recovery is a good feature."
"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."
"It works with VMware and Hyper-V without agent installation."
"Rubrik is stable and easy to use."
 

Cons

"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"I wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."
"The UI could do with a facelift."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"More integration with leading storage solutions."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"There are some features to improve on in Rubrik. For instance, they should have a tool where we can integrate with our SAP HANA."
"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."
"Collecting logs in Rubrik is very difficult compared to other tools."
"The customer service and support could be a bit faster."
"I would rate the stability a seven out of ten. There is always room for improvement."
"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."
"Could be improved from an analytics point of view."
"They support Hyper-V and it works with our CloudOut, the cloud DR, but they seem to add features for VMware first and Hyper-V gets added second or sometimes several releases after the VMware feature comes out."
 

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."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"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."
"Rubrik was probably the most expensive solution but in the long run, it's justified by the value of the data that it protects."
"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."
"There is a license requirement for the solution. If you expand or if the maintenance period expires, there's a license renewal as well."
"When we compared the overall costs, Rubrik was cheaper because the engineering and operational side required FAR LESS dedication. So, all in all, they actually were cheaper than the competition."
"Rubrik is expensive, but due to its data management capabilities, customers can save a lot by reducing hardware and storage."
