Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The compression, because it drastically reduces the disk space."
"It has reduced our backup time and simplified our backup processes across all the servers."
"It works with VMware and Hyper-V without agent installation."
"The most valuable features of Rubrik are the restoration and ease of use."
"The live mount reduces complexity."
"What I like about Rubrik is its strong focus on security, particularly in combating ransomware threats."
"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."
"Instant recovery is a good feature."
"The security and the ransomware protection are most valuable."
"The user interface (UI) is great. It is very lightweight and intuitive."
"Make sure you check your backups on a regular basis. Backups do get missed with this tool, for whatever reason."
"I would like to see the pieces that they have put in the web only to be put into the thick client sitting on the desktop client."
"The way the filtering goes, if you filter on your view, there is no indication that you have made a selection."
"The integrated reporting is not really that nicely built. The reporting functionality could definitely be a little bit more customizable from an administration perspective, with an easier to understand interface."
"User interface could be improved."
"Rubrik could improve in customization options for dashboards."
"I don't like Rubrik's user interface because it's not intuitive, and I find it hard to get the information I need."
"The reporting in the dashboard and reporting for extractions both need improvement. I would suggest making them easier to understand and use, not just out-of-the-box. We should also be able to customize them."
"It does not offer image-level backups for Hyper-V 2012."
"Needs integration with video CD (coming in the next release) and a multi-tenant GUI."
"I would love to be able to just get from the dashboard to a file that I need, or a system that I need."
