Featured Reviews

Ingvar  Ingason - PeerSpot reviewer
An affordable product that offers a reasonably good technical support
I rate the product's initial setup phase an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup phase, and ten is an easy setup phase. The product's installation phase took me around two weeks. On average, it usually takes about a week or two to deploy when everything is in place. The solution is deployed on a hybrid cloud from Azure.
CarlosCastells - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Nutanix can converge legacy-style rack mount servers, so it is highly scalable."
"I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the solution."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"Nutanix has its own backup system known as HYCU, as well as its own virtual server."
"We find the ease of use valuable."
"We use this solution as an integrated backup solution and it is integrated from the backup provider to the Nutanix solution."
"Intelligent agent technology."
"It has a ​single pane of glass interface."
"Features we have requested are typically added to the next product release."
"Instant recovery of virtual machines allows for the restoration of services in minutes."
"Rubrik simplifies our data backup and recovery processes significantly. It's very straightforward to use. We start by tagging through VMware, and everything tagged for Rubrik is backed up automatically. Backups are much better and faster because Rubrik takes a full snapshot of the virtual machine. We recently conducted a verification by performing a restore, and even during the restore process, we could bring up the server in less than 10-15 minutes. Additionally, we have set up alerts for sensitive data, which helps us track data."
"I think the best feature is its masterless architecture."
"Rubrik has brought all of our backups under a single pane of glass and made recovery extremely simple."
"The solution is extremely stable. They've been phenomenal, especially for a young company."
 

Cons

"It could be cheaper."
"This solution could be improved with regards to the hosts that integrate with the platform itself. Each of the hosts integrated with the storage and networking only provide one instance of a backup."
"The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like to see the multi-cloud improve."
"The solution's setup process should be simplified."
"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."
"One improvement I would suggest for Rubrik is to have an inbuilt media layer facility for direct backups to tape."
"They have what's called an organization which means different groups of access to Rubrik, but the alerting only goes to the admins. My suggestion to Rubrik is to make sure that the separate organizations or groups of users get the appropriate alerting."
"Initially, we encountered compatibility challenges with some of our technologies."
"It is a lot more expensive than other solutions, but you get what you pay for."
"I would like for unmanaged backups to be able to be saved in a separate policy."
"It needs to keep innovating to stay relevant in the data management field."
"There is always room for improvement with some shortcuts for the web interface. They could make it even more beautiful."
"I would like to see more information on encryption with the next release."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While Nutanix Mine is extremely expensive for small businesses, it is a very cost-effective product for enterprise businesses."
"Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup is fairly priced."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is affordable or low, and ten is expensive or high, I rate the price as two."
"I rate the pricing a five out of ten because the price is average."
"It’s simple, straightforward, and we were able to see 50% hard savings."
"Rubrik is not the cheapest solution, but we've been happy with the time savings that we have seen. At least from what we have spent so far, we have been happy with the return on investment."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
"Rubrik is expensive, but due to its data management capabilities, customers can save a lot by reducing hardware and storage."
"Rubrik is an expensive solution."
"Rubrik is an all inclusive price. No additional implementation costs or licencing."
"We pay yearly and it's based on the number of bricks."
"You need to understand what you're getting for the price. You are getting a backup solution, which is state of the art and works absolutely flawlessly. You are getting the storage needed to store your backups. You have all the sexy features that a modern backup solution can provide you, like deduplication, erasure coding, compression, fast execution time, secured data, and top-notch customer support. So, it might be expensive on paper. It's not free, but when you analyze what you are getting and the time you can spend on other stuff, then Rubrik is very cost-efficient."
