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 provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
"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."
"Cloud backup is easier to manage and administer than our previous tape solution."
"Smooth integration into customer's environment, interactive UI."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"The solution has been very stable."
"The solution's technical support team is very responsive and proactive."
"The system is able to determine when it is the best time to do backups. This is SLA-driven, and if it is not possible to maintain this SLA, the system will tell you too."
"Rubrik is a very scalable and high-performing backup restore solution."
"There is a lot of flexibility in how it can be deployed, and where their data can be backed up (i.e. on-premise or in the cloud)."
"The most valuable features of Rubrik are the restoration and ease of use."
"Since switching to Rubrik, our backup times have decreased significantly, going from two and a half days to one and a half hours for certain systems."
"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 product's most valuable feature is the immutability of a backup."
 

Cons

"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"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."
"At present, downloading the relevant files and placing them into a directory on the DS-System is a little cumbersome and open to error/malicious use."
"The UI could do with a facelift."
"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"I wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"User interface could be improved."
"I would improve the cost part of Rubrik; they should improve in that area."
"Setup is immediate but pricing is not cheap."
"With multiple Rubrik clusters setup in an environment, it becomes painfully obvious that this product needs a central management console."
"There could be better reporting and better filtering."
"Global management of multiple systems is lacking, as is reporting across multiple installed units."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. After the licensing, the price tends to go up as time goes by."
"We would like to be able to do granular restores directly from Exchange. Also, more granular management of VM backups would help."
 

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."
"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."
"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."
"I don't remember the cost, but I know that for Veeam, we were spending almost $250,000 a year for 205 licenses. It was an enterprise version. When we purchased Rubrik, it was just a little bit more. It was not a terribly huge amount, and if I recall, that was for three years of support as well. So, Veeam priced itself out of the market at a certain point in time."
"The cost was less than our previous provider, and this is a much better product."
"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."
"Originally, we bought the units on perpetual licenses. Now, we have switched to Rubrik Go. I think the Rubrik Go subscription is a better model, where it is based on your onsite environment and you consume what you use."
"The product is not cheap, but for good reason. It simply works and is very fast."
"Rubrik is an all inclusive price. No additional implementation costs or licencing."
