Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 most valuable feature is the ease of use for backing up VMs.""The standout feature is its ransomware protection capabilities.""In terms of stability, the product is good.""Rubrik Go's best feature is data visualization.""The most valuable feature is the storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good.""Rubrik Go is very simple to use.""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."

"The solution helps reduce our workload.""The solution is easy to use. It's very simple and clients find it very easy to find all objects and things they need with the Veeam Explorer.""Veeam is affordable and end-to-end configuration is straightforward, whether you're going from source to destination or vice versa. Retrieval is also easy.""Veeam Backup for Office 365 has good security, and I also like the process they use for backups.""It is very simple to set up.""The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup for Office 365 is its performance. Additionally, the user interface and documentation are easy to use and navigate.""The feature that I like the most is the system backup recovery from OneDrive.""The tool is easy to use and straightforward regarding restoration and creating backups.

Cons
"I believe there's room for improvement in terms of support, particularly with Tier 3 support coming from the on-call team.""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's security visibility could be improved.""I would like to see better integration with applications, such as those from Microsoft, to make backing up from those applications simpler.""Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster.""The tool's pricing needs to be improved.""Reporting could be improved. For now, it's only exported to CSB files.""You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."

More Rubrik Go Cons →

"Its price could be improved.""When you add a new site for backup, it gives you a notice that there is a new site, but the way you select that and configure that could be slightly better. It works, but it is not always very clear. For example, for the URL, you need to hover over the title or the name of the site. You should see it immediately on the screen. It should have a better user interface for selecting what you want to back up so that you get a more clear overview of the sites that are there and the ones that you want to combine in a backup. Its user interface should be more user-friendly. It has a lot of scrolling and doesn't give you a complete overview when needed. That's the main thing why it is not very user-friendly. It should have a better user interface.""When you are working in the Cloud security is very important.""They can provide a dashboard for sizing. This feature might get included in the next release.""It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem.""Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by reducing the time it takes for backups. I have mentioned this to Veeam and hopefully, in the next version, it will be a faster backup.""In the next release, it should have direct export to tape drive abilities and NDMP support.""The solution announced many features two years ago, and they still have not happened, so I would hope that the next release has these ready to go."
