Point-in-time restore capabilities are built into the storage appliance
Our first impression when we were introduced to the product was very good. I still think it's very good. They are truly different. The whole product is based on point-in-time restore capabilities built into their storage appliance, and no one else I know does that. I'd rate it a 10 out of 10 because it does everything that we have asked it to do.

Reliable automated backups have protected critical databases and simplified recoveries for our operations
Portal identity management should improve. We end up losing people's identity, which was not sufficient enough to read the events. That was the only place I could see for improvement. They keep changing the layouts and descriptions, giving the user confusion if they have not used it for maybe three months. When they come back, the interface is changed. They lost the legacy support, and it is not consistent. Some of the options for the restore give a very hard time for the engineer if they come back after three months to use it because the phrases have changed completely. That is why they were not able to select whether they should select this option or should select another option. Where it comes from, the documentation we gave them does not match anymore. That was a challenge.My consultation part was about how to integrate the technology with each other for the platform or storage or database. I did not deal with any price metrics or scaling the storage. I have no idea about the pricing part. I never joined any meetings or any documents to disclose the pricing. It was quite good in general. Recently, in March 2025, they did a new update which enabled them to update their agents remotely and built in, in-place mode. That is bringing the cybersecurity perspective. That was a big challenge. I said it is a challenge, but I do not know because I left the company, so I am not sure if cybersecurity addressed the solution. Rubrik support is usually very accommodating and very flexible. I am not sure, but the last challenge I saw was that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Takes advantage of deduplication and compression through as much of the content of VMs which are similar."
"I sleep better at night knowing that my data is covered, especially in these times of ransomware and zero-day attacks."
"The machine installed without difficulty."
"It's very intuitive, has a very modern interface. Instead of making the user set up a million parameters for things that the system knows better anyway, they put all the intelligence in the product and made the controls much easier."
"We love the fact that we do not have to worry about ransomware and can rollback to any point in time."
"The Reduxio unit is superior in its ability to recover from any second."
"We have seen a large increase in the performance of our ERP and reporting environment, as reports which were taking minutes to run are running in seconds now."
"Enables multiple hosts access to the virtual machines by providing for moving VMs due to maintenance or host failure."
"Rubrik is critical for our organization because it keeps our data safe and helps us meet all of our POs and TOs."
"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."
"Due to this effective, faster backup and recovery solution, we are now able to focus on other creative tasks to meet our entire pipeline, and we save around one million dollars a year."
"Rubrik is a faster unit from a hardware perspective. Things, like Live Mount, mean we can bring services back straightaway, then have them transition back into the live storage in the background. Because we can use Live Mount to do instant restores, a restore is now a five-minute job. Then, the rest of it is done in the background, rather than doing something for an hour before you actually get the restore back."
"The solution is extremely stable. They've been phenomenal, especially for a young company."
"The security and the ransomware protection are most valuable."
"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."
"It is easy to deploy."
 

Cons

"It would be helpful to have the ability to recover virtual machines individually without having to restore the full LUN."
"I think that the only issue that I would like to see an improvement in would be the price."
"There is only thing I can think of at the moment, that would be detailed printable reports."
"They're trying to do this, but they need to show more what their growth plan is, the development, what the next steps are, the future."
"The user interface for the web console could be more user-friendly, while it is flashy, how to find functions is not necessarily obvious.​"
"The latest release limits web access to the admin console via Chrome only, and that's a bit of a hassle. Would definitely prefer something less restrictive there."
"The only critique that we have is it needs the ability to have local users added. You have to log in as one built-in admin account. You can't create your own."
"I would love to see deeper integration with VMware vSphere/vCenter."
"With Windows, it is difficult to configure Oracle Database."
"Could be improved from an analytics point of view."
"We have some challenges with the solution's reporting because historical reports have some limitations."
"For Rubrik, though it does a great job, it needs to keep innovating to stay relevant in the data management field."
"We would like to be able to do granular restores directly from Exchange. Also, more granular management of VM backups would help."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. After the licensing, the price tends to go up as time goes by."
"Rubrik's disaster recovery capabilities could be improved."
"Better integration for complex NAS structures having to mount at root adds time and workload to the process of NDMP."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Depending on your cost of data loss, one ransomware or accidental deletion could pay for a Reduxio appliance."
"​The advantage of using HDDs to store (versus pure flash) makes the price point attractive versus other options.​​"
"All of their new features that were released following our purchase are free of charge. For example, we are about to upgrade getting cloud integration for free."
"The pricing and licensing were favorable.​"
"You want the best, you've got to pay for the best, that's all. In terms of licensing, just work with your VAR. The features, overall, were just too good to pass up, even though it comes at a premium."
"They are very competitive in pricing, so I would definitely recommend Reduxio."
"I think that you are able to buy a minimum capacity, then grow your capacity within the box as you expand your data needs."
"It was the best price for capacity and speed on a hybrid array I could find."
"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."
"You need to understand what you're getting for the price. You are getting a backup solution, which is state of the art and works absolutely flawlessly. You are getting the storage needed to store your backups. You have all the sexy features that a modern backup solution can provide you, like deduplication, erasure coding, compression, fast execution time, secured data, and top-notch customer support. So, it might be expensive on paper. It's not free, but when you analyze what you are getting and the time you can spend on other stuff, then Rubrik is very cost-efficient."
"It is a great value, but its cost is still a bit high."
"It is an expensive product."
"We are on an annual license to use Rubrik and it is priced well."
"Rubrik is priced high, but it was the solution that was providing us encryption and was secure. The solution price is high, but you get what you pay for."
"Rubrik is not cheap. Hopefully, you can archive your data on cheap storage to keep the investment minimal."
"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."
