Senior Technical Support Engineer at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
Reliable automated backups have protected critical databases and simplified recoveries for our operations
Portal identity management should improve. We end up losing people's identity, which was not sufficient enough to read the events. That was the only place I could see for improvement. They keep changing the layouts and descriptions, giving the user confusion if they have not used it for maybe three months. When they come back, the interface is changed. They lost the legacy support, and it is not consistent. Some of the options for the restore give a very hard time for the engineer if they come back after three months to use it because the phrases have changed completely. That is why they were not able to select whether they should select this option or should select another option. Where it comes from, the documentation we gave them does not match anymore. That was a challenge.My consultation part was about how to integrate the technology with each other for the platform or storage or database. I did not deal with any price metrics or scaling the storage. I have no idea about the pricing part. I never joined any meetings or any documents to disclose the pricing. It was quite good in general. Recently, in March 2025, they did a new update which enabled them to update their agents remotely and built in, in-place mode. That is bringing the cybersecurity perspective. That was a big challenge. I said it is a challenge, but I do not know because I left the company, so I am not sure if cybersecurity addressed the solution. Rubrik support is usually very accommodating and very flexible. I am not sure, but the last challenge I saw was that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Time dedicated to backup was drastically reduced, with reduced infrastructure complexity and easy, fast restores."
"It is easy to deploy."
"The Live Mount feature is one of the main features we use; it is saving us time in restoring the VMs, allowing us to give them quickly to the developers for testing, resulting in a faster turnaround time."
"The feature that I have found most valuable from Rubrik is its protection against ransomware attacks. Rubrik is a very nice, very good solution because it is able to protect your data and you have the possibility from the backup to detect any abnormal behavior, like a ransomware attack. You are able to detect and restore very easily with this solution. This is a major differentiator in comparison to the other competitors."
"The most valuable feature of Rubrik for me is its user-friendliness and efficiency."
"Takes me 80 percent less time to manage my backup environment."
"Rubrik backup is more than twice as fast as our previous solution, and its deduplication rate is significantly better."
"Rubrik can also serve as a secondary host for emergency recoveries."
"It takes less time to replicate files between two servers."
"In Version 7.xx the most valuable feature to me is being able to carry out a test full server failover in which case the primary server is still up and running."
"Customer Service: Second to none Technical Support: Second to none"
"It gives us the possibility to migrate/protect customer servers and data in the simplest way."
 

Cons

"I would like a way to set monthly backups on a certain date and time."
"Initially, we encountered compatibility challenges with some of our technologies."
"The Office 365 protection could be improved."
"Two areas I would like to see improvement in Rubrik are pricing and localization."
"If there was something that we could get Rubrik to fix, it would be when our DBS takes snapshots of a server or the database, the replication doesn't kick off fast enough."
"One improvement I would suggest for Rubrik is to have an inbuilt media layer facility for direct backups to tape."
"A singular system is needed to manage all of the clusters."
"The same test case in Rubrik takes more than six to seven times longer, meaning the on-premises SLA is significantly faster."
"Not such a good coverage of the most widely used Linux server distributions, so many issues happen while migrating these servers."
"Yes I encountered issues with deployment. The information provided in the guide just stated about 2 or 3 communication ports but even after these ports are enabled there are still issues with the 2 servers communicating via Double-Take."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Rubrik is a little bit expensive, but it's worth the price."
"As a technical person, I don't have the details, but from what I have heard, it can be expensive."
"High priced when considering a total change in backup solution."
"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."
"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."
"The solution is expensive for small businesses."
"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."
"It is an expensive product."
