We performed a comparison between IBM ProtectTIER, NovaStor NovaBACKUP, and Rubrik based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."In terms of stability, I've found it to be very stable. I've walked into the server room when it was at 60 degrees Celcius, and it was still running fine."
"The cataloging is the best feature. It takes millions of frames for the backup. It's incremental, so it takes less time to complete."
"The solution is highly stable."
"Overall IBM ProtectTIER is a great solution. It is easy to use."
"The most valuable features are the Self-Service, and the ability to search the data."
"The command-line interface is good."
"It is a very good and easy-to-use tool for non-technical people."
"Rubrik is highly scalable and is easy to do."
"One platform for instant recovery."
"It has the ability to test DR in a controlled, inexpensive way and to restore between environments."
"Time dedicated to backup was drastically reduced."
"The fact that the API is so available to us with the playground — there's an internal and public playground — is also valuable. We can write API calls — and although I'm sure there's a way we could hurt the data — we write those calls with a lot of certainty that we won't be destroying anything. We write these API calls using really easy mechanisms and generate automation a lot faster."
"A Google-like file search, system scaling, and a frequent development cycle are some positives that this solution offers."
"This is a centralized tool where we are able to schedule backups and perform monitoring."
"We had some VMware issue as VMware did some changes on the AHCI drivers. Rubrik saved our environment those times."
"The configuration wizards are still complex and hard to navigate. These should be easier to manage."
"I would like the possibility to back up the infrastructure and then replicate it upon on restart, without having to orchestrate the starting of the VM."
"IBM ProtectTIER could improve by being more user-friendly."
"The backup for a large amount of data is slow."
"Setting up the system to work with legacy equipment is a bit complex at times."
"The price of NovaStor NovaBACKUP is an area that can be considered as a weakness or drawback, where improvements are required."
"The open source database needs to be supported."
"It is already very well furnished, but live mounts for Nutanix AHV would be amazing."
"The dashboard and user interface could be improved to make them more user-friendly."
"Two areas I would like to see improvement in Rubrik are pricing and localization."
"A singular system is needed to manage all of the clusters."
"The solution needs to be more secure and needs to better protect against ransomware."
"Rubrik needs to continue to listen to their customers and what they want/need, not just care about money and the bottom line."
"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."
