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

"Reduxio delivers a self-contained system with all of the features rolled in and functional."
"The biggest feature, and one of the reasons we use it with the file shares, is its continuous Snapshotting. We can go back to almost to any point in time, not only to last night at midnight or a week ago, but 10 minutes ago or three-hours-and-so-many-seconds, or whatever the case may be. We already had a brush with ransomware in the past, so it's good to know we can dial back to just before a mishap happens."
"One of the beautiful parts about it is the whole user interface. It's almost too simple. As an IT professional, you think, "Where are the works, how am I assured that this is actually protecting my data?" The ease of use in terms of deployment, and also the metrics that it feeds back to you are also among the many attractive features of the whole platform."
"The performance increase is significant over our replaced storage, our servers respond lightning fast and the end user experience has greatly improved."
"Takes advantage of deduplication and compression through as much of the content of VMs which are similar."
"Immediate data recovery: critical to business continuity in an age of unknown cyber threats."
"The support has been so responsive and great, they feel like one of our staff members."
"It has a very intuitive interface, it integrates more smoothly with our steps. With a different product from a different manufacturer, there are a lot more steps required to set up a volume, to make it available in VMware and to utilize it there."
"The implementation process is straightforward with simple clicks, cluster implementation, discovery, and adding components."
"I no longer feel the need to babysit and monitor all of the backup jobs in the backup system."
"The Auto-Snapshot SLA feature and recovery time are amazing. It took seven seconds to have a server back up and running in production from a total failure."
"Intelligent agent technology."
"Mounting recent backups to create new servers rather than cloning servers in VMware drastically cut down required time."
"Rubrik has improved our organization by minimizing downtime (in case of an incident was to occur)."
"The big thing, the big benefit, it gives us is that it just works."
"Features we have requested are typically added to the next product release."
 

Cons

"It would be helpful to have a mobile app to monitor the storage array remotely."
"Scalability. Reduxio has only one product, they don’t have an option, for now, to expand the storage product."
"We had a brief hiccup, a brief outage, during one upgrade process, but it wasn't too extreme."
"The ability to look at data at a file level would be useful, as well as the ability recover at that level. Right now, you can only recover whole volumes."
"I would love to see deeper integration with VMware vSphere/vCenter."
"I would love an iPhone app to monitor my system from outside the firewall."
"I would love to see deeper integration with VMware vSphere/vCenter. Right now, I can edit existing Reduxio datastore sizes in the vSphere web client. Provisioning new datastores that way would be nice."
"Would love to have role-based access and an active directory integration."
"If there was something that we could get Rubrik to fix, it would be when our DBS takes snapshots of a server or the database, the replication doesn't kick off fast enough. They can't remote it to the peer site and manipulate it back up in order to move it over, take a copy of production, slap it over, and test it out. As I understand, they are working on it. Replication works. We also get spoiled by how good things are now. We get to a point where it is so easy but when something isn't instant gratification, it seems that everything else is so amazing, why isn't this right?"
"The same test case in Rubrik takes more than six to seven times longer, meaning the on-premises SLA is significantly faster."
"We would like to see more support for Hyper-V."
"I'd like to see a cloud backup service for smaller customer environments that may not support a physical or virtual appliance."
"I don't like Rubrik's user interface because it's not intuitive, and I find it hard to get the information I need."
"The Office 365 protection could be improved."
"Troubleshooting failed backups is not what it should be. Once you gather logs, deciphering them without the help of support is usually almost impossible."
"The interface is still slightly clunky and has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ROI is how much (time, money, resources) you will save in case of a ransomware attack because you had this box."
"I think that you are able to buy a minimum capacity, then grow your capacity within the box as you expand your data needs."
"The compression and dedupe are very effective on Reduxio, so it may be worth asking about licensing partial capacity on a unit, if the full capacity seems overkill for your environment."
"I think it is worth the value."
"Depending on your cost of data loss, one ransomware or accidental deletion could pay for a Reduxio appliance."
"For less money than my previous solution, I receive way more performance and backup features that far surpass anything on the market."
"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."
"I think they're really worth what I get. It's not cheap, but I get all I need."
"Some people say it is expensive, but you get what you pay for. If you want a Maserati, you have to pay for it. If you want to buy a Porsche, you have to pay for it."
"The cost was less than our previous provider, and this is a much better product."
"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."
"The setup cost is a bit high, but the solution is an all-in-one solution."
"We pay yearly and it's based on the number of bricks."
"We do perpetual licensing... It was all based on the amount of storage we needed to use. We did a cost analysis compared to Tivoli and it was in line with other solutions."
"It is an expensive product."
"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."
