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."
"Once you have Asigra, you are set, it’s a rock solid platform that works every time."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"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."
"Flexibility really means a lot for us. Being able to address almost every client backup and recovery requirement means that we have a tremendous amount of confidence as do our partners that Blueshift is going to be able to deploy a solution quickly and efficiently."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"Asigra's agent-less capabilities make it a very convenient solution to implement."
"Rubrik is cheap, and you get good performance."
"Rubrik provides excellent customer service and technical support."
"When it comes to saving time managing our backups, Rubrik has saved us a lot of time compared to what we were using; it feels like it has saved us lifetimes of time because the process used to be difficult."
"Even though I am not trained for implementing, it is easy to use and easy to learn."
"Automation functions, image based backup, and the ability to instantly recover anything from files to databases."
"It improved the backup/restore process by a factor of a 1000."
"The most valuable feature of Rubrik is its concept of a 'backup airbag', which provides a robust defense against attacks."
"Management is so simple that anyone can check the backups and do restores when necessary."
 

Cons

"The management could be a bit better."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"I wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."
"More integration with leading storage solutions."
"I think the product needs more diversity in Hyper-V."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"At the time of this review, Rubrik is still missing several components to their Office 365 backup offering."
"A singular system is needed to manage all of the clusters."
"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."
"We would like to be able to do granular restores directly from Exchange. Also, more granular management of VM backups would help."
"Initially, we encountered compatibility challenges with some of our technologies."
"Lacks availability in a NFR format of virtual appliances to test them in public cloud environment."
"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."
 

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's competitive pricing and strong return on investment make it a compelling choice, especially compared to alternatives like Data Domain and Avamar. Commvault was considered but deemed too expensive."
"Rubrik is not the cheapest solution, but we've been happy with the time savings that we have seen. At least from what we have spent so far, we have been happy with the return on investment."
"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."
"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."
"The cost was less than our previous provider, and this is a much better product."
"There are additional costs like maintenance, and there are some features on their central management piece that don't come with our licensing."
"It’s simple, straightforward, and we were able to see 50% hard savings."
"Rubrik is an expensive solution."
