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…

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.

Pros

"I like the tool's reliability. Its price is also cheap, and it gets delivered in two days."
"The most valuable feature was the repository."
"Rubrik Go is very simple to use."
"The most valuable feature is the storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good."
"The most valuable feature is that it is a hyper-converged backup appliance with everything in one box and has an easy-to-use interface that is not complicated."
"We use the solution as a backup for our virtual environment and SQL databases."
"Clients find the cost very good and enjoy the large cloud compatibility."
"This solution is very simple and easy to use, and it is easy to implement, but I would like more enhancements and features to be added."
"Rubrik Go is both very scalable and stable."
"This product has positively impacted my organization because in the legacy tool, we used to have significant workload and significant people to be deployed, in this case, we have very minimal requirements."
 

Cons

"Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing. This is the issue, the reason why we started using Synology."
"Reporting could be improved. For now, it's only exported to CSB files."
"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."
"The AWS backups could be improved."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"There have been occasional issues with the user interface needing certain necessary information, requiring us to contact support for clarification."

"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."
"One of the issues with the product is that you cannot postpone a specific backup job. If you try to do that, every backup job is paused."

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