Used for cloud databases and overall cyber resiliency
The solution can be installed everywhere. Nowadays, it is deployed on the public cloud. If it's a small-sized environment, it takes two to three hours to configure everything. On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the solution's initial setup ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's a very straightforward product that is well integrated with everything."
"The most valuable feature is the storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good."
"Rubrik Go is very simple to use."
"The standout feature is its ransomware protection capabilities."
"The automation capabilities streamline our operations significantly."
"The solution's most valuable feature is Sensitive Data Discovery."
"It has an easy-to-use interface that is not complicated."
"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."
"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."
 

Cons

"In the next release, I would like to see better prices for the licenses."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"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."
"The tool's pricing needs to be improved."
"The AWS backups could be improved."
"There have been occasional issues with the user interface needing certain necessary information, requiring us to contact support for clarification."
"I would like to see better integration with applications, such as those from Microsoft, to make backing up from those applications simpler."
"The solution’s pricing could be reduced."
"Integration with the client is something that needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a perpetual license."
"Rubrik Go is more cost-effective than similar solutions by other vendors."
"I would rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten. The solution's costs are monthly."
"This is a very costly solution."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"It's an expensive product if you compare it to traditional backup solutions; however, if you compare it as a total cost of ownership for a solution, it is not."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten."
"The client pays for the solution depending on what they use."
"Rubrick Go is quite expensive - I would rate its pricing four out of ten."
