Plenty of useful feature and reliable
We use Asigra for backups I have found all the features useful in the solution. I have been using Asigra for approximately two months. The solution is stable. The six people in our IT department are using the solution. The initial setup was a medium difficulty level. Some parts were complex…

Technical support has improved my data management process but I encounter GUI and cost challenges
The solution is available in the Azure Marketplace, but approaching directly is more cost-effective. The Marketplace approach incurs additional platform and reporting costs. We initially built Rubrik at host level and DB level. We encountered latency issues when reverting back, with numerous snapshots available. This resulted in increased costs and occupied spaces. I performed manual deletion of snapshots and verified with the Rubrik team for confirmation. The GUI reporting functionality lacks flexibility. For instance, obtaining specific server reports considering drive space and backup quantities is not possible, as it only provides overall reporting.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has been very stable."
"Cloud backup is easier to manage and administer than our previous tape solution."
"Asigra is a cost effective solution and very competitive in the market."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"There are two primary improvements of the Asigra platform with the recent version 13.1 SP1: Virtualization: a tremendous variety of data protection solutions for virtual machines, and Cloud-2-Cloud for Office 365, Google, Amazon, etc., making this a full package of data protection platform."
"The Asigra product on the whole is a fantastic solution and I would highly recommend this as it delivers everything our business and our subsequent customers required."
"It allows our backup engineers to build great relationships with customers as they know their data is being protected by best-in-class software."
"Flexibility really means a lot for us. Being able to address almost every client backup and recovery requirement means that we have a tremendous amount of confidence as do our partners that Blueshift is going to be able to deploy a solution quickly and efficiently."
"The solution's technical support team is very responsive and proactive."
"Automation functions, image based backup, and the ability to instantly recover anything from files to databases."
"Overall, it makes operational life way easier."
"The solution is extremely stable. They've been phenomenal, especially for a young company."
"Even though I am not trained for implementing, it is easy to use and easy to learn."
"When it comes to saving time managing our backups, Rubrik has saved us a lot of time compared to what we were using. It feels like it has saved us lifetimes of time because the process used to be difficult. It's not just the day to time savings. When something goes wrong, that's where the real time savings comes into play. We are able to get back to where we need to be more confidently and with much fewer steps."
"Cut backup remediation to nearly nothing."
"Features we have requested are typically added to the next product release."
 

Cons

"More integration with leading storage solutions."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"The management could be a bit better."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"I hope to see enhancements in areas like data governance and the incorporation of new features in future updates."
"There is room for improvement through a further extension of their Office 365 backup platform. In addition, it's still a bit cost-prohibitive to backup NAS. Those would be the two primary areas for improvement."
"I would love to be able to just get from the dashboard to a file that I need, or a system that I need."
"Global management of multiple systems is lacking, as is reporting across multiple installed units."
"Rubrik needs to continue to listen to their customers and what they want/need, not just care about money and the bottom line."
"The interface is still slightly clunky and has room for improvement. They do work with us whenever we mention anything that needs to be done or anything that we want. We find that bringing up the management interface is a little slow and not as intuitive as we would like, but it's been getting better as it evolves."
"It is an expensive product."
"The main pain points we experienced was the stability of the system. We received a lot of instability when we have upgraded from a certain version to a new version. The newer version was completely filled with bugs and we needed to purge the system every week until we update to a newer version that was available one year later. The stability of the code is the main problem, they need to make it better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
"Rubrik is priced high, but it was the solution that was providing us encryption and was secure. The solution price is high, but you get what you pay for."
"The pricing and licensing of Rubrik is better than products that we've had in the past. It was quite a bit cheaper than Commvault and NetBackup."
"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."
"The product is not cheap, but for good reason. It simply works and is very fast."
"We pay yearly and it's based on the number of bricks."
"Rubrik was probably the most expensive solution but in the long run, it's justified by the value of the data that it protects."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
"We are on an annual license to use Rubrik and it is priced well."
