Fast data recovery for large scale datasets
The Infiniguard (dedicated disc storage), offers a petabyte of storage space for on-site disc storage for backups. Because of this, we were able to get rid of our tapes. Essentially, it replaced our tape backups. We're definitely going to be buying another INFINIDAT array. We do have another location that is going to be needing a new array sometime soon, so we'll be buying another one. The beautiful thing about them is that you can set them up to replicate for disaster recovery between the two of them and set up some nice replication jobs, site to site, for automatic database replication.

Handles large volumes of data with ease, but the self-service portal must be more user-friendly
My advice depends on an organization’s needs. If an organization has a large volume of data, Delphix is a good choice. It is robust and very efficient with large volumes of data and different kinds of databases. If someone is looking for a one-stop solution with all features and capabilities, they must consider a different tool. Overall, I rate the product a six or seven out of ten.

Optimal data security and management achieved with smooth deployment and strong support
I plan to expand the number of users for Rubrik in the future. Currently, I have approximately 10 to 12 customers on Rubrik, as we are partners to Rubrik and a service provider, SIS. I am working with large to medium organizations, not small ones. Regarding Artificial Intelligence, Rubrik is in the initial phase, and I am expecting more from them. I can give them seven out of ten for their improvements in that area. I would recommend Rubrik to other organizations because it is easy to install, easy to manage, and very compact in terms of a solution, with good support from Rubrik. These features allow it to match from small scale to large scale customers very easily. The number of people who usually take part in maintenance from my side depends on the customer size. For large customers, we involve four to five people, but for small customers, one person is enough. I rate Rubrik eight 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

"Essentially, it replaced our tape backups."
"Delphix's data distribution is powerful. It's easy to distribute data with this solution. The main advantage of Delphix is that it generates copies of data."
"The product is efficient in handling large volumes of data."
"The solution's most valuable feature is data cloning."
"The performance offered by the product, its price, and its ability to handle structured and unstructured data were good when compared to the other products in the market."
"It provides the ability to roll back to a point in time or roll forward without the assistance of a DBA."
"Data being available anytime is a life changer."
"Delphix interfaces are simple to use and very user friendly."
"The most valuable feature is VDB provisioning."
"ubrik's One-Touch Recovery helps address this. Using backup as a migration tool can also help overcome challenges when moving to a hybrid cloud."
"Replaces legacy tapes and disk backups which are unreliable, expensive and space consuming."
"In the event of any issues or questions, the support is top-notch. We rarely need to use support, but when they are needed, they are always quick to respond and very knowledgeable."
"For data security, anomaly detection, site monitoring, and threat hunting are very important features that help customers."
"Instant recovery is a good feature."
"I don't know if it is the best or the worst but it's very easy to install and very easy to balance. Sometimes that it's a problem because the installer of these data gets extremely scared because it's so easy. The product is easy to install, easy to balance, and easy to work with. Another really good point is the instant recovery."
"A Google-like file search, system scaling, and a frequent development cycle are some positives that this solution offers."
"The file search feature across all backups has been helpful."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more improvement in the GUI."
"GUI could be improved."
"My only complaint about this solution is the price."
"Delphix is a strong solution for virtualization, but it's not strong enough for creating data, so we have to use another solution for creating new data."
"One thing I would like to see improved is the unusual error messages we receive and some slowness we have while we are updating."
"Could be improved with richer reporting capabilities."
"Delphix needs better partnerships from a customer perspective. It's how they sell it, not what they're selling."
"The solution’s self-service portal must be more interactive and user-friendly."
"This product should be extended and made to be a more comprehensive storage solution."
"The same test case in Rubrik takes more than six to seven times longer, meaning the on-premises SLA is significantly faster."
"It does not offer image-level backups for Hyper-V 2012."
"The customer service and support could be a bit faster."
"Price-wise, Rubrik needs improvement as it is considered expensive compared to similar competitors."
"Collecting logs in Rubrik is very difficult compared to other tools."
"They support Hyper-V and it works with our CloudOut, the cloud DR, but they seem to add features for VMware first and Hyper-V gets added second or sometimes several releases after the VMware feature comes out."
"One improvement I would suggest for Rubrik is to have an inbuilt media layer facility for direct backups to tape."
"Its reporting can be improved. Sometimes, I need to create reports to know whether something is available or not, how much frontend data is being protected, etc. Rubrik gives a lot of things in the report, which can be confusing. It isn't very easy to get reports. It shows all the backup, index, replication, and everything else in one report. So, I have to export, filter, and then do the calculations."
