Inexpensive, easy to configure, good support, and it is easy to scale up when needed
The most valuable feature is the interface, which is very nice to work with. Whether you're working on the appliance itself, or you're working on the cloud, it is basically the same interface. It got to the point where when we needed to recover a file, we didn't look at the backup solution anymore. Instead, we went right to the Datto Backupify. Using Backupify took our time to recover from probably four days to 20 minutes. With this device, you're capable of logging into the interface or through an IP address to access the data that is stored on it. Recovery can be just a matter of spinning up a virtual machine or doing a full bare metal recovery, replacing the entire hardware-based server.

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

"I'd recommend it it's a really good, straightforward, easy use system, with no hidden strings."
"The most valuable features are the ease of use and the fact that users themselves can self-provision and recover."
"The most valuable feature is the interface, which is very nice to work with."
"Using Backupify took our time to recover from probably four days to 20 minutes."
"In terms of Rubrik Go's most valuable features, their VM features are 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 is the ease of use for backing up VMs."
"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 storage efficiency, as the storage footprint is very good."
"The solution's most valuable feature is Sensitive Data Discovery."
"Clients find the cost very good and enjoy the large cloud compatibility."
 

Cons

"The device does not allow you to do multiple backups over the whole environment."
"Not a ten because there's always room for improvement."
"There have been occasional issues with the user interface needing certain necessary information, requiring us to contact support for clarification."
"The tool's pricing needs to be improved."
"Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster."
"I think integration with multiple cloud support could be an additional feature that would make the product even better."
"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."
"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."
"Rubrik Go could improve on the Kubernetes side; they should have more features for Kubernetes backup and orchestration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The costs were about $1,000 USD to buy the unit in the first place, and then between $250 and $300 per year for support."
"Rubrick Go is quite expensive - I would rate its pricing four out of ten."
"It's an expensive product if you compare it to traditional backup solutions; however, if you compare it as a total cost of ownership for a solution, it is not."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"The client pays for the solution depending on what they use."
"This is a very costly solution."
"Rubrik Go is more cost-effective than similar solutions by other vendors."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten."
"I would rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten. The solution's costs are monthly."
