Easy to do backup, easy to deploy and scalable
I have experience with different solutions like Oracle, Veeam, andCommvault Cloud. Right now, we are testing a solution for Kubernetes. We are trying to replace it, so we just don't know yet. I don't really know if Rubrik is a good solution for this. We are testing Velero (Open Source) or Kasten K10, and I don't know Rubrik's view for this type of technology.
Boomchi Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to setup, good support, has good indexing and file-level restore features
The primary use case of this solution is for backing up EC2 instances and RDS instances The most valuable features are the indexing, the file-level restore, and the replications between regions. Also, the ability to integrate it with the information management studio, and the backups for RDS…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup is easy."
"It has a ​single pane of glass interface."
"It is easy to deploy."
"The Live Mount feature is excellent; it's useful for the backup administrator and end user."
"I value the options it has for storage tiering (i.e. whether it should be a flash, SSD, or pushed to the cloud) depending on the data provided."
"Rubrik has led to improvement by reducing the amount of failed backups, leading to a reduced workload in IT operations."
"It has a good interface which is simple to navigate and utilize."
"Rubrik is cheap, and you get good performance."
"The product is good for volume-level backups."
"The most valuable features are the indexing, the file-level restore, and the replications between regions."
 

Cons

"There are some features to improve on in Rubrik. For instance, they should have a tool where we can integrate with our SAP HANA. Directly from the HANA studio, we should be able to do a backup. That's what I'm looking forward to in the future."
"I hope to see enhancements in areas like data governance and the incorporation of new features in future updates."
"The Office 365 protection could be improved."
"If I could take a snapshot from a physical and be able to stand it up as a virtual immediately without the need to rebuild an entire system and restoring files, that would be HUGE."
"I wish there was more training readily available, not just the expensive classes that require purchasing Rubrik credits."
"We have some challenges with the solution's reporting because historical reports have some limitations."
"One improvement I would suggest for Rubrik is to have an inbuilt media layer facility for direct backups to tape."
"The functionality is missing, but they are very receptive to our thoughts and ideas."
"They are niche with the work that they do, but they should have more integration with NetBackup and the reporting is something they should be working towards improving."
"The product needs to improve its file-level or granular-level backups."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"High priced when considering a total change in backup solution."
"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."
"The initial setup cost includes support and maintenance costs, followed by a monthly fee."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
"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 was probably the most expensive solution but in the long run, it's justified by the value of the data that it protects."
"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."
"Rubrik is fairly priced."
"When comparing to other solutions, the price is at par."
