Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We don't need to manage different devices."
"Instead of four or five tools, consisting of backup software, storage where the backup resides, and a separate system for reporting and central monitoring, they all now come in the virtual edition for IDP."
"The product is easy to troubleshoot and store data."
"It backs up our Windows systems and our Linux systems and everything."
"IDPA's best feature is Turbo Boost Technology. The compression and duplication features are excellent, too."
"The most valuable feature is the deduplication rate."
"It is very simple to perform an upgrade of the system and the environment."
"What I find valuable about Dell PowerProtect IDPA is its stability and strong performance."
"Instant recovery of virtual machines allows for the restoration of services in minutes."
"Rubrik is highly scalable and is easy to do."
"Replaces legacy tapes and disk backups which are unreliable, expensive and space consuming."
"Rubrik is an easy and automatic solution that needs no manual intervention."
"The archiving, off-of-box, is awesome. It lets you put your data where you want it and gives you the peace of mind of having more than one copy of it. And it's smart about the way that it does the archiving. It doesn't just copy one-for-one. It does all of its processing of the deduplication and compression before it sends it off to the archive, which helps with our cloud costs."
"A reduced infrastructure complexity and fast to rack and go."
"Time dedicated to backup was drastically reduced."
"One platform for instant recovery."
"The only thing that could be improved would be the complexity of the initial setup."
"The price could be lowered slightly, to make it more competitive."
"Managing the product is a little bit complicated."
"The two-factor authentication is missing from Dell products."
"We would like to see the pricing drop a bit."
"We cannot add IDPA to DPC, and each IP has a DP Central, which cannot monitor other IDPAs."
"The solution should be easier to use."
"The product's index master feature needs improvement."
"User interface could be improved."
"Rubrik needs to continue to listen to their customers and what they want/need, not just care about money and the bottom line."
"The open source database needs to be supported."
"I don't like Rubrik's user interface because it's not intuitive, and I find it hard to get the information I need."
"The price of Rubrik is too high, especially when you are considering a change in the total backup solution."
"The licensing cost is quite high. That is something that needs to be worked out, because so many times it happens that the team does not have the budget or there are other issues at that time. Cost has become an important factor in deciding whether to continue with the Rubrik solution."
"It is already very well furnished, but live mounts for Nutanix AHV would be amazing."
"Its cost is high."
