Ransomware recovery has become validated and protects critical workloads across multiple accounts
The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy. Consolidating those or offering a slimmer permission set for read-only backup (versus full restore) would help with security review friction. Cross-account restore into a target account still requires manual steps for KMS. If Clumio could handle re-encrypting with the target account's CMK during restore rather than requiring Multi-Region Key pre-staging, that would save significant preparation time. Also, the restore API could surface better progress telemetry since right now, large RDS restores are a bit of a black box until they complete or fail. Finally, DocumentDB and MongoDB Atlas backup support would round out our stack nicely.

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

"Clumio gave us a genuinely isolated vault that sits outside our AWS Organization's blast radius."
"Clumio has a straightforward setup"
"It has improved our disaster recovery footprint; previously, backups were only stored on premises, and having an offsite backup improves our reliability and security."
"We now have the peace of mind knowing that our entire AWS infrastructure is fully backed up into an air-gapped environment."
"Working with the Clumio/Commvault team has been a very good experience."
"We have been able to safely and securely save our backups off of AWS."
"Clumio proved to be the most cost-effective option."
"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."
"We use the solution as a backup for our virtual environment and SQL databases."
"The solution's main focus is on security and ransomware."
"It has an easy-to-use interface that is not complicated."
"The solution's most valuable feature is Sensitive Data Discovery."
"I think Rubrik Go is pretty good overall."
"In terms of stability, the product is good."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use for backing up VMs."
 

Cons

"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"It would be beneficial to show when backups are available and to receive alerts if there are any issues with the backups."
"The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy."
"I think integration with multiple cloud support could be an additional feature that would make the product even better."
"Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster."
"There have been occasional issues with the user interface needing certain necessary information, requiring us to contact support for clarification."
"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."
"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."
"The AWS backups could be improved."
"The solution’s pricing could be reduced."
