Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery (DR) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is stable."
"Also, the web interface is really great. The design, from a user-experience standpoint, is really straightforward and easy to use... they nailed it. Usually, from the very first panel, the dashboard that you land on after login, you've got most of your functionality right around where you need it to be. You've got your new items on the left, you've got your support on the top right. Nothing really seems out of place or just stuck in someplace."
"Mounting recent backups to create new servers rather than cloning servers in VMware drastically cut down required time."
"Takes me 80 percent less time to manage my backup environment."
"The main benefit is that we are secured in terms of workloads. We know that if we need to restore any VMs, or even any files inside a VM, that we will succeed 100 percent. This means that we don't need to spend much time administering the backup environment because we know it is self-healing and efficient. So, we are spending that time on something else, which is always a plus."
"The system is able to determine when it is the best time to do backups. This is SLA-driven, and if it is not possible to maintain this SLA, the system will tell you too."
"The management and ease of installation are the most valuable features."
"It has a single pane of glass interface."
"Setting up VMs can be done quickly. It is easy to use."
"We feel the ability to move virtual machines while they are still running to be the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is easy depending on the environment you are working with."
"Technical support is very proactive and helpful."
"The most valuable features are the backup and disaster recovery services."
"It is an expensive product."
"With Windows, it is difficult to configure Oracle Database."
"I would like to see Rubrik better integrate with Microsoft Active Directory. Instead of just backing up a full domain controller, I would like the solution to have Active Directory object knowledge so we can restore specific objects in Active Directory versus restoring the whole domain controller."
"There is room for improvement through a further extension of their Office 365 backup platform. In addition, it's still a bit cost-prohibitive to backup NAS. Those would be the two primary areas for improvement."
"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."
"The solution needs to be more secure and needs to better protect against ransomware."
"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."
"The customer service and support could be a bit faster."
"The automation should be simplified or improved."
"The improvements should be as per customer requirements."
"When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient."
"It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution."
"VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery could improve by enhancing the network bandwidth from the storage."
