Rubrik is a very nice, very good solution because it is able to protect your data and you have the possibility from the backup to detect any abnormal behavior, like a ransomware attack. You are able to detect and restore very easily with this solution. This is a major differentiator in comparison to the other competitors."

"We have some challenges with the solution's reporting because historical reports have some limitations."
"I would like to see more openness for partners to access and assist in system management. Currently, access is limited, often handled by Rubrik personnel, likely due to security concerns."

"Rubrik could improve in customization options for dashboards."
"Pricing is something that needs to be considered for improvement."
"The deployment and configuration of the backup service is something that could be streamlined a little bit, particularly when you're trying to do a SQL workload.

"I would like a way to set monthly backups on a certain date and time."
