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."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"Once you have Asigra, you are set, it’s a rock solid platform that works every time."
"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."
"Asigra's agent-less capabilities make it a very convenient solution to implement."
"We can provide a reliable service to our customers."
"Asigra is a cost effective solution and very competitive in the market."
"Cloud backup is easier to manage and administer than our previous tape solution."
"The most important feature is the instant recovery of virtual machines, as it allows us to restore services in minutes."
"The solution is extremely stable. They've been phenomenal, especially for a young company."
"We had some VMware issue as VMware did some changes on the AHCI drivers. Rubrik saved our environment those times."
"I would estimate that Rubrik recovery testing saves us 80% in time as compared to our prior solution."
"The most valuable feature of Rubrik is its concept of a 'backup airbag', which provides a robust defense against attacks."
"We have a great success rate for backups with Rubrik and because of the ease of automating tasks, we also run periodical restores to check the quality of the backups."
"Rubrik can also serve as a secondary host for emergency recoveries."
"Automation functions, image based backup, and the ability to instantly recover anything from files to databases."
 

Cons

"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"Asigra's implementation and day-to-day costs are very high; necessary features can significantly increase the cost of implementation."
"The management could be a bit better."
"The UI could do with a facelift."
"I wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"The price of Rubrik is too high, especially when you are considering a change in the total backup solution."
"The recovery of Oracle databases is too complicated. It is not something that helps the DBA, the Database Administrator, but it should be done by the backup person like many other solutions. Everything is ready for the DBA to recover the database. It is a way of doing things, but I don't think you should give the backup people the ability to do it."
"It needs more storage array integration options and an easier restore for files that download using a browser."
"I don't like Rubrik's user interface because it's not intuitive, and I find it hard to get the information I need."
"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."
"The open source database needs to be supported."
"The reporting, in particular the customization of reports, needs to be improved."
"It needs more storage array integration options and an easier restore for files that download using a browser."
 

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."
"The setup cost is a bit high, but the solution is an all-in-one solution."
"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."
"We pay yearly and it's based on the number of bricks."
"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."
"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."
"Rubrik is fairly priced."
"The initial setup cost includes support and maintenance costs, followed by a monthly fee."
