Santiago Mantilla - PeerSpot reviewer
Though this tool lacks the features to allow backups on the same server, it is very easy to use
During the current times, solutions must have a backup system from a main server, and an active directory service. Also, it is no longer important to have a backup for different environments, such as databases, application servers, and web servers. However, ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus must get a main server for itself.

Optimal data security and management achieved with smooth deployment and strong support
I plan to expand the number of users for Rubrik in the future. Currently, I have approximately 10 to 12 customers on Rubrik, as we are partners to Rubrik and a service provider, SIS. I am working with large to medium organizations, not small ones. Regarding Artificial Intelligence, Rubrik is in the initial phase, and I am expecting more from them. I can give them seven out of ten for their improvements in that area. I would recommend Rubrik to other organizations because it is easy to install, easy to manage, and very compact in terms of a solution, with good support from Rubrik. These features allow it to match from small scale to large scale customers very easily. The number of people who usually take part in maintenance from my side depends on the customer size. For large customers, we involve four to five people, but for small customers, one person is enough. I rate Rubrik eight 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

"Along with its active directory infrastructure, this solution also possesses the ability to recover and exchange, making it a valuable backup tool."
"Rubrik has brought all of our backups under a single pane of glass and made recovery extremely simple."
"The most valuable feature of Rubrik is its concept of a 'backup airbag', which provides a robust defense against attacks."
"Rubrik's automation has really impacted my operations positively by providing smooth automation for most backup and recovery tasks."
"The solution's technical support team is very responsive and proactive."
"Rubrik, when compared to Cohesity, Dell, and Veritas, was the best of the four."
"Not having to specify a time to run a backup with a fixed schedule is something that's really beneficial. In the past we had to schedule and try to manually stagger things over the window, to back up everything. Because Rubrik is SLA-based, you say, "Well, I need it to fit in this window here," and it just backs it up when it's most convenient for the Brik and for the third-party system. It looks at the CPU usage and says, "Okay, it's not as busy now. I know I've got time to take the backup." That's a real advantage."
"Takes me 80 percent less time to manage my backup environment."
"The file search feature across all backups has been helpful."
 

Cons

"The solution has few features as it does not focus on managing anything in the application."
"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 integrated reporting is not really that nicely built. The reporting functionality could definitely be a little bit more customizable from an administration perspective, with an easier to understand interface."
"The dashboard and user interface could be improved to make them more user-friendly."
"The solution needs to be more secure and needs to better protect against ransomware."
"One improvement I would suggest for Rubrik is to have an inbuilt media layer facility for direct backups to tape."
"It does not offer image-level backups for Hyper-V 2012."
"Initially, we encountered compatibility challenges with some of our technologies."
"I would rate the stability a seven out of ten. There is always room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license cost for this solution is cheap."
"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 solution is expensive for small businesses."
"There is a license requirement for the solution. If you expand or if the maintenance period expires, there's a license renewal as well."
"The setup cost is a bit high, but the solution is an all-in-one solution."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
"There are additional costs for add-ons, and they recently upgraded a new cluster, which also carries a price."
"Rubrik is a little bit expensive, but it's worth the price."
