"The solution doesn't support AIX software or in-cloud, and we have a lot of servers running on AIX and Oracle."
"Google has stopped supporting the on-premise version of the tool."
"Areas that need improvement would be the support for recovery in the physical environment."
"The initial setup is complex."
"Lacks the option to price backup costs within the solution itself."
"Rubrik needs to continue to listen to their customers and what they want/need, not just care about money and the bottom line."
"The dashboard and user interface could be improved to make them more user-friendly."
"The product’s user interface needs improvement."
"The interface is still slightly clunky and has room for improvement. They do work with us whenever we mention anything that needs to be done or anything that we want. We find that bringing up the management interface is a little slow and not as intuitive as we would like, but it's been getting better as it evolves."
"Better integration for complex NAS structures having to mount at root adds time and workload to the process of NDMP."

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."
"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."
"I hope to see enhancements in areas like data governance and the incorporation of new features in future updates."
