Technical support has improved my data management process but I encounter GUI and cost challenges
The solution is available in the Azure Marketplace, but approaching directly is more cost-effective. The Marketplace approach incurs additional platform and reporting costs. We initially built Rubrik at host level and DB level. We encountered latency issues when reverting back, with numerous snapshots available. This resulted in increased costs and occupied spaces. I performed manual deletion of snapshots and verified with the Rubrik team for confirmation. The GUI reporting functionality lacks flexibility. For instance, obtaining specific server reports considering drive space and backup quantities is not possible, as it only provides overall reporting.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
"The reliable backup and restoring of the Salesforce data is the most valuable feature."
"Disk mount that lets a restore happen immediately, no need to re-hydrate."
"Rubrik has the best vendor support that I've dealt with; they're probably the best, they're the most knowledgeable, they're the most respectful, they call a lot better, and they will follow through to the end."
"We are seeing about a 62 percent TCO savings and 90 percent management time savings since switching to this solution."
"The most important feature is the instant recovery of virtual machines, as it allows us to restore services in minutes."
"The Live Mount feature is excellent; it's useful for the backup administrator and end user."
"What I like about Rubrik is that you can back up to the cloud. It is a different kind of backup where you're not archiving the tape. Rubrik is a physical appliance. It is a dedicated appliance to which you can back up, and you can also back up to another device. So, you can back up to Rubrik and then to another device. If you have more than one site, you can set up Rubrik on site A and also on site B. You can back up to the Rubrik on site A and then replicate that data to the Rubrik on site B."
"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."
"Rubrik is critical for our organization because it keeps our data safe and helps us meet all of our POs and TOs."
 

Cons

"There is need to do the same for the other SaaS applications."
"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"We have some challenges with the solution's reporting because historical reports have some limitations."
"It needs more storage array integration options and an easier restore for files that download using a browser."
"There are so many things Rubrik has done right. They need to continue to listen to their customers and what they want/need, not just care about money and the bottom line."
"They have what's called an organization which means different groups of access to Rubrik, but the alerting only goes to the admins. My suggestion to Rubrik is to make sure that the separate organizations or groups of users get the appropriate alerting."
"Its cost is high."
"The user interface could be improved, it's pretty rough."
"Based on my experience with Rubrik, I think they could improve by providing more customer-friendly technical support, even though they currently offer the best support."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Rubrik is an expensive solution."
"Rubrik is an all inclusive price. No additional implementation costs or licencing."
"I don't remember the cost, but I know that for Veeam, we were spending almost $250,000 a year for 205 licenses. It was an enterprise version. When we purchased Rubrik, it was just a little bit more. It was not a terribly huge amount, and if I recall, that was for three years of support as well. So, Veeam priced itself out of the market at a certain point in time."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
"Rubrik is not the cheapest solution, but we've been happy with the time savings that we have seen. At least from what we have spent so far, we have been happy with the return on investment."
"Rubrik is expensive, but due to its data management capabilities, customers can save a lot by reducing hardware and storage."
"We pay annually for the license for Rubrik. There are no additional costs. Initially, we needed to set it up, negotiate and finalize the offer."
"Rubrik is a little bit expensive, but it's worth the price."
