Featured Reviews

Ingvar  Ingason - PeerSpot reviewer
An affordable product that offers a reasonably good technical support
I rate the product's initial setup phase an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup phase, and ten is an easy setup phase. The product's installation phase took me around two weeks. On average, it usually takes about a week or two to deploy when everything is in place. The solution is deployed on a hybrid cloud from Azure.
AmarpreetSingh - PeerSpot reviewer
Optimal data security and management achieved with smooth deployment and strong support
I plan to expand the number of users for Rubrik in the future. Currently, I have approximately 10 to 12 customers on Rubrik, as we are partners to Rubrik and a service provider, SIS. I am working with large to medium organizations, not small ones. Regarding Artificial Intelligence, Rubrik is in the initial phase, and I am expecting more from them. I can give them seven out of ten for their improvements in that area. I would recommend Rubrik to other organizations because it is easy to install, easy to manage, and very compact in terms of a solution, with good support from Rubrik. These features allow it to match from small scale to large scale customers very easily. The number of people who usually take part in maintenance from my side depends on the customer size. For large customers, we involve four to five people, but for small customers, one person is enough. I rate Rubrik eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"Nutanix can converge legacy-style rack mount servers, so it is highly scalable."
"Nutanix has its own backup system known as HYCU, as well as its own virtual server."
"We use this solution as an integrated backup solution and it is integrated from the backup provider to the Nutanix solution."
"We find the ease of use valuable."
"I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the solution."
"The solution’s ransomware recovery, from a security perspective, is one of the biggest features of the product. We don't have to worry about the operational complexity of air-gapped backups and can rely more on the immutability approach. It is a highly valued feature in this solution."
"I would rate the solution's web interface at eight out of ten. It's just fantastic and intuitive. It's so easy to use. I've never done any formal training on Rubrik, but I was able to quickly come to grips with its capabilities."
"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."
"The most valuable features of Rubrik are the restoration and ease of use."
"Instant recovery of virtual machines allows for the restoration of services in minutes."
"The file search feature across all backups has been helpful."
"The solution is extremely stable. They've been phenomenal, especially for a young company."
"They have a great PowerShell module and easy mediums to speak to the people who create and enhance them."
 

Cons

"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."
"The solution's setup process should be simplified."
"The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"This solution could be improved with regards to the hosts that integrate with the platform itself. Each of the hosts integrated with the storage and networking only provide one instance of a backup."
"It could be cheaper."
"I would like to see the multi-cloud improve."
"It is a lot more expensive than other solutions, but you get what you pay for."
"We have some challenges with the solution's reporting because historical reports have some limitations."
"They support Hyper-V and it works with our CloudOut, the cloud DR, but they seem to add features for VMware first and Hyper-V gets added second or sometimes several releases after the VMware feature comes out."
"It does not offer image-level backups for Hyper-V 2012."
"The only thing that can be improved is catering for open source databases because at the moment it doesn't cater for Mongo, MySQL, and Postgres."
"Better integration for complex NAS structures having to mount at root adds time and workload to the process of NDMP."
"Collecting logs in Rubrik is very difficult compared to other tools."
"There could be better reporting and better filtering."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the pricing a five out of ten because the price is average."
"While Nutanix Mine is extremely expensive for small businesses, it is a very cost-effective product for enterprise businesses."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is affordable or low, and ten is expensive or high, I rate the price as two."
"Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup is fairly priced."
"We are on an annual license to use Rubrik and it is priced well."
"Rubrik is an all inclusive price. No additional implementation costs or licencing."
"There is a license requirement for the solution. If you expand or if the maintenance period expires, there's a license renewal as well."
"There is just one cost, and it includes software and hardware. So, everything is included. It is better than other solutions in terms of cost. We also have Dell EMC Avamar in our environment, and we have to pay for the hardware and data domain. We also have to pay for the software license for the data protection suite. So, based on my calculations, I find Rubrik cheaper, and we are also getting good performance."
"We do perpetual licensing... It was all based on the amount of storage we needed to use. We did a cost analysis compared to Tivoli and it was in line with other solutions."
"Rubrik is an expensive solution."
"Due to this effective, faster backup and recovery solution, we are now able to focus on other creative tasks to meet our entire pipeline. So, we have seen ROI in terms of the improvement of productivity in our team. We save around one million dollars a year."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
