"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It would be beneficial to have a more optimal Google Backup for larger environments."
"The deployment and configuration of the backup service is something that could be streamlined a little bit, particularly when you're trying to do a SQL workload. You have to install a backup service on the server. You only have to do it once and then you're done, but you have to do that on every server that you want to protect."
"Initially, we encountered compatibility challenges with some of our technologies."
"Rubrik needs to continue to listen to their customers and what they want/need, not just care about money and the bottom line."
"Rubrik can only leverage cloud storage for archiving and has no cloud failover."

"I would like a way to set monthly backups on a certain date and time."
"I would like to see the entire Office 365 product suite backed up by Rubrik. For instance, they do SharePoint and Exchange online, but they don't back up Microsoft Teams. So, I would like to see more of the Office 365 suite added into their backup capabilities."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. After the licensing, the price tends to go up as time goes by."
