Immutable protection has secured critical workloads and delivers strong automated recovery options
I think immutable protection is the most valuable feature; that is something the customer will resonate with. I think AI-powered insights for predictive analytics is an attractive topic because people like to learn more about it, but I do not think right now people are ready to spend money on just these features. I think it is an add-on that customers appreciate, but it is not a special or separate topic that the customer will prioritize. I think Rubrik Go's capability to automate data management tasks is a good topic to discuss with customers right now, but I do not think at the moment it would be a separate initiative that the customer already has a budget for. I think Rubrik Go is effective in enabling workload recovery and provisioning, but it has yet to be proven with our customer implementation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Stability is a ten. No issues, no performance drops, and no crashes."
"The most valuable feature is disaster recovery."
"Due to the licensing and deployment, it's scalable and flexible."
"One of the best benefits of using Acronis is that it also provides data security along with the backup of data. It checks everything, and that's the main benefit of using Acronis"
"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."
"The solution is very easy to use, user-friendly, and offers very easy configuration capabilities with a very simple setup that works well for our purposes."
"We can block certain ports and USB ports for data loss prevention."
"I do not need to touch my firewall, especially when it is managed by the provider and takes ages to do a single NAT."
"The most valuable feature is that it is a hyper-converged backup appliance with everything in one box and has an easy-to-use interface that is not complicated."
"In terms of Rubrik Go's most valuable features, their VM features are good."
"I think Rubrik Go is pretty good overall."
"The solution's most valuable feature is Sensitive Data Discovery."
"Rubrik Go is both very scalable and stable."
"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."
"In terms of stability, the product is good."
"Rubrik Go's best feature is data visualization."
 

Cons

"One of the areas where the product could be improved is its online cloud backup. I do appreciate the way the product is easy to navigate, however, sometimes I have difficulty managing the security permissions on my backups."
"The technical support could be improved. When you create a ticket, the responsiveness you'd expect is lacking."
"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."
"We are forced to purchase space in Acronis' private cloud, which is expensive."
"The speed of the backup process in the solution can be improved"
"Support could be improved, and awareness is important."
"Technical support could be improved, they're not very timely in their response."
"I would like to see more integration with SIEM solutions."
"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."
"I believe there's room for improvement in terms of support, particularly with Tier 3 support coming from the on-call team."
"Rubrik Go could improve on the Kubernetes side; they should have more features for Kubernetes backup and orchestration."
"The tool's pricing needs to be improved."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster."
"Rubrik Go's security visibility could be improved."
"Integration with the client is something that needs to be improved."

"With the price, there is a certain limitation on terabytes but no limits on how many servers or how many services you can run."
"I am not the one who is paying for it, but based on what I know, it is not very expensive. It has a good price."

"Rubrick Go is quite expensive - I would rate its pricing four out of ten."

"The client pays for the solution depending on what they use."
