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

"This is a solution that I recommend everybody try."
"The most valuable features are the automated backup, and that you are able to manage all of your devices centrally."
"The most valuable feature I have found to be the management console; it is very easy to use and automation is important, and additionally, overall the solution is easy to use."
"The product offers very easy configuration capabilities."
"The management, backup, and recovery features are all very good."
"From a security standpoint, it provides robust protection to prevent system crashes and data loss."
"The solution has helped us maintain the backups, compliance, and integrity of the data residing on the servers and endpoints."
"You can backup whatever you want, anything from your mobile phone to your OneDrive."
"In terms of stability, the product is good."
"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."
"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."
"The solution's most valuable feature is Sensitive Data Discovery."
"Rubrik Go is very simple to use."
"Clients find the cost very good and enjoy the large cloud compatibility."
"The standout feature is its ransomware protection capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is the storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good."
 

Cons

"Not many people know about this product, so they may need to concentrate more on marketing."
"We'd like to see more integration for Nutanix, Oracle, et cetera."
"It would be better if the price of the solution was improved for medium-sized businesses. Moreover, the email security should be improved. We are awaiting new updates on the product."
"Acronis may claim it's due to security reasons, but I believe there should be an option to delete specific files from old backups stored on the Acronis Cloud. Currently, there is no such feature, and I strongly feel the need for a deletion option for erroneous backups."
"The solution is expensive."
"What's lacking in Acronis Backup Cloud is a unified dashboard or console that lets you see the backup status of all clients."
"Some proactive alerts or emails are not currently available."
"It could be a little more user-friendly. The technical support also should be improved."
"There should be an option to generate reports in PDF format, rather than only in Excel or CSV format."
"Technical support isn't that good, especially if you compare it to a competitor like EMC."
"I think integration with multiple cloud support could be an additional feature that would make the product even better."
"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 have been occasional issues with the user interface needing certain necessary information, requiring us to contact support for clarification."
"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."
