Tilak Rohitsingh - PeerSpot reviewer
System Engineer at TEKsystems
Backup has protected our organization-wide email data and supports fast malicious deletion recovery
Some of the best features that Druva Data Security Cloud offers are endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery. Out of endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery, I find the infinitely scalable feature to be the most valuable in my day-to-day work, as it does not have any maintenance windows, which is different in terms of data protection. When it comes to features, I appreciate that Druva Data Security Cloud boasts less complexity found in solutions that are not built for the cloud while remaining secure, scalable, and always available, without requiring a maintenance window. Druva maintains the data protection solution, not the customer, and the platform is always up to date with the latest features, which makes it very scalable, as new capacity can be added to subscription on the fly without changes to the backup setting and without needing to purchase and install new appliances or software. The impact of Druva Data Security Cloud on my organization is significant, as it ensures users' data is backed up with snapshots and is very secure on the cloud. I benefit from prompt and clear assistance from Druva support, and the ease of access into the web portal provides a view into a snapshot without having to restore it first. Specific outcomes I have seen with Druva Data Security Cloud include peace of mind knowing our users' Office 365 data is backed up and very secure, along with improved security, additional protection against accidental deletion of mailbox items, and a means for remedial action after a malicious incident that deletes or encrypts users' data.

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

"The centralized management console in this solution and AI-driven analytics are good features."
"Druva Data Security Cloud is a completely plug-and-play product; you do not need to have a server, you just need to install the agents and deploy it to the end-users, and I would say ease of deployment is a major advantage."
"Over the past five years, I haven't experienced any issues or problems with Druva."
"I would assess Druva's compliance and governance capabilities in meeting industry regulations as fantastic, and I think they are doing fantastically well."
"Using Druva Data Security Cloud, we have significantly reduced the recovery time from hours to minutes, improving overall operational efficiency."
"Druva Data Security Cloud has positively impacted our organization by simplifying backup management, consolidating protection of endpoints and cloud workloads, allowing for faster recovery from accidental deletions and device failures, reducing operational overhead, and improving security and compliance through immutable backups and centralized policy management."
"The most valuable feature of Druva is that it can detect changes in files or laptops and perform incremental backups."
"From my perspective, Druva Data Security Cloud is a mature product that uses AWS backup as a backend solution and is available on AWS Cloud."
"The solution's most valuable features are its ease of use and performance."
"Rubrik Go's best feature is data visualization."
"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's main focus is on security and ransomware."
"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."
"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 solution's most valuable feature is Sensitive Data Discovery."
 

Cons

"They can improve their product quality for Salesforce as they don't have the capability to run that business without Technobind."
"Druva Data Security Cloud can be improved in multiple ways, such as more customizable reporting for compliance needs and faster restoration for large data files, particularly in large enterprise environments where speed is crucial."
"When considering how Druva Data Security Cloud could be improved, I would suggest several enhancements."
"I would rate Druva Data Security Cloud an eight on a scale from one to ten because there are better solutions available in the market in terms of security that give a better stack."
"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."
"If a customer is using legacy infrastructure, such as in-house servers or in-house data centers, that is where Druva Data Security Cloud does not perform well as a backup solution."
"I think the best improvement Druva could make is better training for customers and partners, as their on-ground support from a technology point of view is much better with Veeam and Commvault than with Druva."
"I believe Druva Data Security Cloud could be improved as the user interface could be a little more clear, the SSO setup was a little confusing, and the ticket creation procedure could be simpler."
"The tool's pricing needs to be improved."
"Reporting could be improved. For now, it's only exported to CSB files."
"I would like to see better integration with applications, such as those from Microsoft, to make backing up from those applications simpler."
"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."
"Rubrik Go could improve on the Kubernetes side; they should have more features for Kubernetes backup and orchestration."
"Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster."
"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 AWS backups could be improved."

"Rubrik Go is more cost-effective than similar solutions by other vendors."
"The client pays for the solution depending on what they use."
"I would rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten. The solution's costs are monthly."
