Affordable, easy to use, and offers good pricing

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

"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."
"Since we have implemented Asigra we don’t have an administrator to do manual backup to tapes and external HDD; everything is automated and there are no hassles for the administrator."
"Smooth integration into customer's environment, interactive UI."
"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 client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"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."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
"Asigra’s multi-tenancy feature is most valuable as it allows the company to on-sell a private cloud backup and recovery solution to existing customers."
"What I like the most about Rubrik is its user-friendly interface."
"It has the ability to test DR in a controlled, inexpensive way and to restore between environments."
"At this point, we have a 100% success rate, which was definitely not the case with any prior system that I've used."
"What I like about Rubrik is its strong focus on security, particularly in combating ransomware threats."
"The web interface is user-friendly, clean, and it provides a good summary of what you're protecting at a glance."
"I would rate this solution 10 out of 10."
"I can tell you that it was one of the best decisions we have made."
"When we were using our old backup we had approximately 40 incidents per week, with Rubrik we might only have two or three incidents per week."
 

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."
"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."
"Technical Support: 5/10, Due to different timezones it would always be difficult to get hold of a tech."
"They should have 24/7 support for customers in different time zones. They are slow to respond to requests, and I get the impression that the ServiceDesk is overloaded."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The UI could do with a facelift."
"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. You only know it's suspicious, but you don't know the root cause. Other than that, everything works well."
"I have a personal want which might not necessarily make sense with Rubrik as a company or Rubrik as a software, but it would be really nice if they could also handle things like item-level backups and restores of Active Directory objects and DNS and DCP objects."
"Rubrik can only leverage cloud storage for archiving and has no cloud failover."
"When errors do occur, it can be a somewhat painful process to get to the bottom of issues."
"Global management of multiple systems is lacking, as is reporting across multiple installed units."
"The interface is still slightly clunky and has room for improvement."
"The Office 365 protection could be improved."
"The functionality is missing, but they are very receptive to our thoughts and ideas."
 

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."
"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 expensive, but due to its data management capabilities, customers can save a lot by reducing hardware and storage."
"You need to understand what you're getting for the price. You are getting a backup solution, which is state of the art and works absolutely flawlessly. You are getting the storage needed to store your backups. You have all the sexy features that a modern backup solution can provide you, like deduplication, erasure coding, compression, fast execution time, secured data, and top-notch customer support. So, it might be expensive on paper. It's not free, but when you analyze what you are getting and the time you can spend on other stuff, then Rubrik is very cost-efficient."
"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."
"The product is not cheap, but for good reason. It simply works and is very fast."
"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."
"Due to this effective, faster backup and recovery solution, we are now able to focus on other creative tasks to meet our entire pipeline. So, we have seen ROI in terms of the improvement of productivity in our team. We save around one million dollars a year."
"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."
