Cloud backups have simplified disaster recovery and now demand simpler first-time setup
For people looking for on-premises infrastructure with their disaster recovery in the cloud, Dell PowerProtect Cloud Snapshot can help because it is easy to recover from. Additionally, if they are trying to migrate, they can use this solution as well. However, it depends on the customer's use cases and whether they really want to spend that much money and time on it. It requires new setup, licenses, and infrastructure investments. If customers do not have the existing infrastructure, then there is no use for it. However, if a customer already has good enterprise-level infrastructure, they can integrate this solution very easily.

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

"It is easy to restore VMs in the cloud."
"Dell PowerProtect Cloud Snapshot has a positive impact by reducing downtime and giving us confidence in recovery."
"The solution's most valuable feature is Sensitive Data Discovery."
"It has an easy-to-use interface that is not complicated."
"Rubrik Go is very simple to use."
"The most valuable feature with Rubrik is that 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."
"In terms of Rubrik Go's most valuable features, their VM features are good."
"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."
"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 most valuable feature is the storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement with Dell PowerProtect Cloud Snapshot is the reporting dashboard."
"However, it depends on the customer's use cases and whether they really want to spend that much money and time on it."
"The AWS backups could be improved."
"Rubrik Go's security visibility could be improved."
"The solution’s pricing could be reduced."
"Rubrik Go could improve on the Kubernetes side; they should have more features for Kubernetes backup and orchestration."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"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."
"Integration with the client is something that needs to be improved."
"I believe there's room for improvement in terms of support, particularly with Tier 3 support coming from the on-call team."
