Inexpensive, easy to configure, good support, and it is easy to scale up when needed
The most valuable feature is the interface, which is very nice to work with. Whether you're working on the appliance itself, or you're working on the cloud, it is basically the same interface. It got to the point where when we needed to recover a file, we didn't look at the backup solution anymore. Instead, we went right to the Datto Backupify. Using Backupify took our time to recover from probably four days to 20 minutes. With this device, you're capable of logging into the interface or through an IP address to access the data that is stored on it. Recovery can be just a matter of spinning up a virtual machine or doing a full bare metal recovery, replacing the entire hardware-based server.

Streamlined data management reduces workload and costs significantly for the team
We are planning to use Rubrik Go's AI-powered insights for predictive analytics, but have not implemented this yet. I cannot provide updates on Rubrik Go's capability to automate data management tasks because I have not used that feature yet. Rubrik Go's integration capabilities with cloud providers have benefited my multi-cloud environment significantly. Rubrik Go's subscription model has helped me align my data protection investments, which is a good option as I am one of the customers who have deployed this subscription option. I am definitely satisfied with the licensing model as it is very simplified and easy to understand. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Rubrik Go a 9.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the interface, which is very nice to work with."
"The most valuable features are the ease of use and the fact that users themselves can self-provision and recover."
"It has an easy-to-use interface that is not complicated."
"The solution is easy to install; our team just has to put together the plan, give it to IT and let them handle it. Other solutions are quite complex, but this is much simpler."
"The automation capabilities streamline our operations significantly."
"Rubrik Go's best feature is data visualization."
"Even though the data is already in the cloud, it's an AWS, so by accessing the on-prem appliance you can still search because it is indexed from that appliance."
"The standout feature is its ransomware protection capabilities."
"We use the solution as a backup for our virtual environment and SQL databases."
"The solution's most valuable features are its ease of use and performance."
 

Cons

"The device does not allow you to do multiple backups over the whole environment."
"Not a ten because there's always room for improvement."
"If you were to compare it to, say, EMC, the availability of the documentation, training programs, and end-user education aren't as good. Rubrik could improve this."
"Rubrik Go's security visibility could be improved."
"Reporting could be improved. For now, it's only exported to CSB files."
"The solution’s pricing could be reduced."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"I believe there's room for improvement in terms of support, particularly with Tier 3 support coming from the on-call team."
"If you're going for Rubrik, you are not opting for the tape library because Rubrik doesn't have the fiber cable connected to the tape library."
"I would like to see better integration with applications, such as those from Microsoft, to make backing up from those applications simpler."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The costs were about $1,000 USD to buy the unit in the first place, and then between $250 and $300 per year for support."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"I would rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten. The solution's costs are monthly."
"It's an expensive product if you compare it to traditional backup solutions; however, if you compare it as a total cost of ownership for a solution, it is not."
"Rubrik Go is more cost-effective than similar solutions by other vendors."
"The client pays for the solution depending on what they use."
"Rubrick Go is quite expensive - I would rate its pricing four out of ten."
"This is a very costly solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten."
