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

"Data protection and ransomware protection are the most valuable features of the solution."
"Due to the licensing and deployment, it's scalable and flexible."
"The solution is reliable and relatively easy to use."
"I like the disaster recovery feature of this solution and the interface is great."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it can cover both the cloud and the on-prem devices."
"Once you deploy, it's very easy to manage. It took us about an hour to deploy."
"It has one console for many loads and one backup for many recovery options, and converting backups as a virtual machine offers an edge as a low-cost Disaster Recovery solution."
"Technical support is great."
"In terms of stability, the product is good."
"The most valuable feature is the storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good."
"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."
"We use the solution as a backup for our virtual environment and SQL databases."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use for backing up VMs."
"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."
"Rubrik Go is both very scalable and stable."
"I think Rubrik Go is pretty good overall."
 

Cons

"The solution is expensive."
"I would like them to improve the command line feature. The command line is not working smoothly, and there is some problem with it."
"The pricing policies could be improved. So in future releases of the product, I would like to see better pricing, primarily."
"It will be good if Acronis can provide more documentation and videos describing how to do different things. Their documentation is good, but it is without examples. They don't have lots of videos. They should put more videos on YouTube to show how to set up certain things, how to restore, and how to back up. They should provide step-by-step documentation and videos for specific scenarios. I would like them to improve the command line feature. The command line is not working smoothly, and there is some problem with it. If the command line is improved, it will take the product to the next level. It would be great if it can back up data from storage so that people are able to back up old data. Such a feature will make it an enterprise solution for a full backup."
"Reporting is not on par. It needs some more information as per customer or partner interest. I hope Acronis is working on it."
"I would like to see more integration with SIEM solutions."
"The technical support could be improved. When you create a ticket, the responsiveness you'd expect is lacking."
"Slow response from technical support."
"The tool's pricing needs to be improved."
"Technical support isn't that good, especially if you compare it to a competitor like EMC."
"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."
"Rubrik Go's security visibility could be improved."
"Reporting could be improved. For now, it's only exported to CSB files."
"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."
"The solution’s pricing could be reduced."
