Streamlined data management reduces workload and costs significantly for the team
We are planning to use Rubrik Go's AI-powered insights for predictive analytics, but have not implemented this yet. I cannot provide updates on Rubrik Go's capability to automate data management tasks because I have not used that feature yet. Rubrik Go's integration capabilities with cloud providers have benefited my multi-cloud environment significantly. Rubrik Go's subscription model has helped me align my data protection investments, which is a good option as I am one of the customers who have deployed this subscription option. I am definitely satisfied with the licensing model as it is very simplified and easy to understand. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Rubrik Go a 9.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are the automated backup, and that you are able to manage all of your devices centrally."
"Data protection and ransomware protection are the most valuable features of the solution."
"The platform's most valuable features include its backup functionality, particularly the snapshot and image backup capabilities."
"The main strengths of Acronis lie in its cost-effectiveness, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive services."
"One of the benefits of using Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is that, along with backing up data, it secures it."
"Technical support is great."
"The product has been very reliable from day one. The biggest advantage of the cloud is that you can scale up and down as you go along."
"The integration with multiple modules in the console and the backup and recovery features are very good."
"It has an easy-to-use interface that is not complicated."
"The most valuable feature with Rubrik is that 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."
"Rubrik Go is both very scalable and stable."
"Clients find the cost very good and enjoy the large cloud compatibility."
"The solution's most valuable features are its ease of use and performance."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use for backing up VMs."
"This product has positively impacted my organization because in the legacy tool, we used to have significant workload and significant people to be deployed, in this case, we have very minimal requirements."
"This solution is very simple and easy to use, and it is easy to implement, but I would like more enhancements and features to be added."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more integration with SIEM solutions."
"While we use the product to perform daily backups, restoring them from the cloud server often takes a significant amount of time."
"Technical support needs to be improved because they do not respond in a timely fashion."
"I would like to see enhancements made to the security."
"Advanced backup is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The agent stability needs improvement."
"I would like to have support for agentless backup, where you don't have to install an agent on the host."
"I would like to see more mature XDR and EDR features. Additionally, for backups, I would like more replication options beyond the current VMXI replication."
"One of the issues with the product is that you cannot postpone a specific backup job. If you try to do that, every backup job is paused."
"The solution’s pricing could be reduced."
"There should be an option to generate reports in PDF format, rather than only in Excel or CSV format."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"I think integration with multiple cloud support could be an additional feature that would make the product even better."
"Integration with the client is something that needs to be improved."
"If you're going for Rubrik, you are not opting for the tape library because Rubrik doesn't have the fiber cable connected to the tape library."
"Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster."
