A reliable backup solution that needs to incorporate a flexible pricing model
We use Boxafe for backup.  I like the tool's reliability. Its price is also cheap, and it gets delivered in two days.  Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible.  I have been working with the product for seven years.  The product is stable.  I rate Boxafe's scalability an eight out of…

Used for cloud databases and overall cyber resiliency
The solution can be installed everywhere. Nowadays, it is deployed on the public cloud. If it's a small-sized environment, it takes two to three hours to configure everything. On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the solution's initial setup ten out of ten.

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 was the repository."
"I like the tool's reliability. Its price is also cheap, and it gets delivered in two days."
"It has an easy-to-use interface that is not complicated."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use for backing up VMs."
"The standout feature is its ransomware protection capabilities."
"We use the solution as a backup for our virtual environment and SQL databases."
"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 most valuable feature is the storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good."
"Rubrik Go is very simple to use."
"The automation capabilities streamline our operations significantly."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in the pricing. This is the issue, the reason why we started using Synology."
"Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible."
"Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster."
"The AWS backups could be improved."
"Reporting could be improved. For now, it's only exported to CSB files."
"There have been occasional issues with the user interface needing certain necessary information, requiring us to contact support for clarification."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"The solution’s pricing could be reduced."
"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."
"I believe there's room for improvement in terms of support, particularly with Tier 3 support coming from the on-call team."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's price is cheap. I rate it five out of ten."
"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."

"Rubrick Go is quite expensive - I would rate its pricing four out of ten."
"This is a very costly solution."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"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."
