We performed a comparison between Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines and Rubrik based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes."
"RecoverPoint replicates workloads fast."
"The installation is straightforward if the version you have is compatible with your infrastructure."
"Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature. Its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable."
"The most valuable features are the data center recovery administration and the time of recovery."
"The most valuable feature is that it is journal-based and you don't have to replicate a lot of data."
"It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."
"The workload can be moved directly if the disaster site is the main site."
"The solution is extremely stable. They've been phenomenal, especially for a young company."
"Intelligent agent technology."
"It works with VMware and Hyper-V without agent installation."
"Live Mount is where we do the majority of our big recoveries, unless it is a file recovery. A file recovery takes a few minutes to restore to where the file in the event a file was accidentally deleted by a user, etc. There has been at least a 90 percent reduction in recovery time based on our previous solution, from the need to recover something to when it's actually recovered went from hours to minutes."
"The live mount reduces complexity."
"The solution is stable."
"Rubrik is very simple to implement and setup. "
"The Auto-Snapshot SLA feature and recovery time are amazing. It took seven seconds to have a server back up and running in production from a total failure."
"The solution is not easy to use. It's actually quite hard. If it could be simplified it might be better for the end user."
"It should have features for recovering a group of virtual machines and full-scale security. For recovering all the VMs at once, they don't have a GUI option, and we have to use the command line."
"I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment."
"It can have better integration. It would be good if, in addition to VMware VM, it can also support other hypervisors. I also want to see support for Oracle databases. As of now, it supports only SQL and Exchange. It would be good to also support other databases."
"The configuration process seems a bit challenging, and the installation takes a bit longer than expected."
"I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release."
"The solution could improve by being more easier to use. However, once you have used it for a while it becomes easier. Additionally, there could be better support and compatibility with management by having a command-line interface. This would be beneficial for the customers."
"In the next release of this software, I would like to see options that help to decrease the bandwidth required, such as compressing the data."
"Lacks availability in a NFR format of virtual appliances to test them in public cloud environment."
"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 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."
"There are some corner cases where the Rubrik Connector (Agent) still doesn't work for our clients."
"We have some challenges with the solution's reporting because historical reports have some limitations."
"I would love to be able to just get from the dashboard to a file that I need, or a system that I need."
"Pricing is something that needs to be considered for improvement."
"We would like to be able to do granular restores directly from Exchange. Also, more granular management of VM backups would help."
