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

"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."
"Cloud backup is easier to manage and administer than our previous tape solution."
"Virtual Disaster Recovery in version 13 is a game-changer, especially for VMWare shops."
"Smooth integration into customer's environment, interactive UI."
"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."
"Once you have Asigra, you are set, it’s a rock solid platform that works every time."
"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 a good interface which is simple to navigate and utilize."
"Rubrik has brought all of our backups under a single pane of glass and made recovery extremely simple."
"Instant recovery because it takes about 10 seconds to restore the VM from backup to production"
"Implementing Rubrik has saved us time and money in managing backups, and I estimate that we've saved approximately 80% in terms of time compared to previously."
"The solution’s ransomware recovery, from a security perspective, is one of the biggest features of the product. We don't have to worry about the operational complexity of air-gapped backups and can rely more on the immutability approach. It is a highly valued feature in this solution."
"Rubrik has improved our organization by minimizing downtime (in case of an incident was to occur)."
"Replacing these four with Rubrik has definitely saved us a lot of money."
"The web-based approach is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"The UI could do with a facelift."
"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"Improving PowerShell integration would greatly simplify Rubrik management."
"The recovery of Oracle databases is too complicated."
"It would be nice if they could work on the pricing a bit."
"With Windows, it is difficult to configure Oracle Database."
"Some of the areas that need improvement are the user GUI (multi-tenancy) and the promised Rubrik Edge solution, which will allow customers to back up their physical devices in our cloud."
"Setup is immediate but pricing is not cheap."
"Rubrik is an expensive product, more expensive than most."
"There are some features to improve on in Rubrik. For instance, they should have a tool where we can integrate with our SAP HANA."
 

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."
"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."
"There is a license requirement for the solution. If you expand or if the maintenance period expires, there's a license renewal as well."
"It’s simple, straightforward, and we were able to see 50% hard savings."
"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 solution is expensive for small businesses."
"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."
"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."
"There are additional costs like maintenance, and there are some features on their central management piece that don't come with our licensing."
