We performed a comparison between AvePoint Cloud Backup and Rubrik based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is the only product in the market that offers platform backup."
"It is the best product in the market for Office 365 backup, and our customers are satisfied with it."
"The product's initial setup phase was super easy."
"The recovery options in Microsoft 365 are not adequate and it does not help to recover data from the recycle bin that is older than 90 days. The solution has made us more efficient and helps to recover data that is older than 90 days."
"The backup and recovery functionalities of the product are very useful."
"It is a very good and stable solution...With AvePoint's support, our experience has been exceptional"
"The most valuable features are the email backup and the SharePoint backup."
"The most promising feature of the product is data security policies, which make it simpler to include compliance processes."
"The solution's technical support team is very responsive and proactive."
"I don't know if it is the best or the worst but it's very easy to install and very easy to balance. Sometimes that it's a problem because the installer of these data gets extremely scared because it's so easy. The product is easy to install, easy to balance, and easy to work with. Another really good point is the instant recovery."
"Features we have requested are typically added to the next product release."
"The security and the ransomware protection are most valuable."
"Takes me 80 percent less time to manage my backup environment."
"The ease of use and innovation are the features that stand out for us."
"In the event of any issues or questions, the support is top-notch. We rarely need to use support, but when they are needed, they are always quick to respond and very knowledgeable."
"Rubrik can also serve as a secondary host for emergency recoveries."
"The restoration could be faster."
"For improvement, AvePoint can provide details on how the tool's backup scope works."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like to see improvements in the tool's initial seed. The initial seed of around 10 TB of SharePoint data took 45 days to complete."
"It is challenging for small or medium-sized businesses to purchase it."
"The component in the product that can be improved revolves around the area where the tool should focus on providing more of a custom touch to the policies."
"It would be beneficial to have a more optimal Google Backup for larger environments."
"Some customers choose other backup solutions because AvePoint is Office 365 and CRM backup system, but they have other backup needs for Azure and so on. Such customers often choose another backup solution instead of AvePoint."
"When errors do occur, it can be a somewhat painful process to get to the bottom of issues."
"I want to see more features regarding filtering in the Snapshot Window, as I need to be able to set a filter for specific dates and times. If I want to check an old backup, I must scroll through one or two years of backups to find what I'm looking for."
"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. They can't remote it to the peer site and manipulate it back up in order to move it over, take a copy of production, slap it over, and test it out. As I understand, they are working on it. Replication works. We also get spoiled by how good things are now. We get to a point where it is so easy but when something isn't instant gratification, it seems that everything else is so amazing, why isn't this right?"
"There are some corner cases where the Rubrik Connector (Agent) still doesn't work for our clients."
"I would love to be able to just get from the dashboard to a file that I need, or a system that I need."
"I would like to have a built-in index searching ability of files/system files within the Rubrik interface to determine if a file or item exists, rather than just recovering it, and then doing a search for the file afterwards."
"The Polaris piece could use improvement. When you get a report and you have events that are suspicious, you cannot drill down and find out why it's suspicious. You only know it's suspicious, but you don't know the root cause. Other than that, everything works well."
"I have a personal want which might not necessarily make sense with Rubrik as a company or Rubrik as a software, but it'd be really nice if they could also handle things like item-level backups and restores of Active Directory objects and DNS and DCP objects."
