Though this tool lacks the features to allow backups on the same server, it is very easy to use
During the current times, solutions must have a backup system from a main server, and an active directory service. Also, it is no longer important to have a backup for different environments, such as databases, application servers, and web servers. However, ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus must get a main server for itself.

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

"Along with its active directory infrastructure, this solution also possesses the ability to recover and exchange, making it a valuable backup tool."
"It has the ability to test DR in a controlled, inexpensive way and to restore between environments."
"The file search feature across all backups has been helpful."
"The tech support is extremely helpful."
"Rubrik simplifies our data backup and recovery processes significantly. It's very straightforward to use. We start by tagging through VMware, and everything tagged for Rubrik is backed up automatically. Backups are much better and faster because Rubrik takes a full snapshot of the virtual machine. We recently conducted a verification by performing a restore, and even during the restore process, we could bring up the server in less than 10-15 minutes. Additionally, we have set up alerts for sensitive data, which helps us track data."
"ubrik's One-Touch Recovery helps address this. Using backup as a migration tool can also help overcome challenges when moving to a hybrid cloud."
"We do like the instant recovery... Now, we say, "Okay, give me 15 seconds and I can get this back up for you." And within that 15 seconds it's on and the only thing that we have to do afterwards is vMotion it off of the Rubrik storage back to where it should rest."
"It works with VMware and Hyper-V without agent installation."
"The ease of use and innovation are the features that stand out for us."
 

Cons

"The solution has few features as it does not focus on managing anything in the application."
"Its cost is high."
"Collecting logs in Rubrik is very difficult compared to other tools."
"Lacks availability in a NFR format of virtual appliances to test them in public cloud environment."
"The integrated reporting is not really that nicely built. The reporting functionality could definitely be a little bit more customizable from an administration perspective, with an easier to understand interface."
"Better integration for complex NAS structures having to mount at root adds time and workload to the process of NDMP."
"I would like a way to set monthly backups on a certain date and time."
"There are some features to improve on in Rubrik. For instance, they should have a tool where we can integrate with our SAP HANA. Directly from the HANA studio, we should be able to do a backup. That's what I'm looking forward to in the future."
"I hope to see enhancements in areas like data governance and the incorporation of new features in future updates."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license cost for this solution is cheap."
"We pay yearly and it's based on the number of bricks."
"The solution is expensive for small businesses."
"Rubrik's support is definitely on the expensive side, but I consider it to be top of the line. We incur no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."
"I rate the pricing an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"There is a license requirement for the solution. If you expand or if the maintenance period expires, there's a license renewal as well."
"It is a great value, but its cost is still a bit high."
"The product is not cheap, but for good reason. It simply works and is very fast."
"High priced when considering a total change in backup solution."
