We performed a comparison between Arcserve UDP and Rubrik based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."I like the tool's speed."
"The solution has no limitations because it does backup for Linux and Windows."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that I can by just one click, copy and paste anything that I would want. I do not have to restore the whole virtual machine."
"It is easy to configure."
"The ability to switch between different hardware platforms and utilization tools are some of this solution's most valuable features."
"The ease of use is the best feature of the product."
"The standard backup and restore feature is most used."
"The most valuable features are the replication to the cloud and the deduplication."
"Its reporting is most valuable. I like how it reports that everything is successfully backed up. It provides a summarized report that I can give to auditors and management."
"Rubrik, when compared to Cohesity, Dell, and Veritas, was the best of the four."
"Management is so simple that anyone can check the backups and do restores when necessary."
"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."
"Cut backup remediation to nearly nothing."
"The product's most valuable feature is the immutability of a backup."
"The web interface is user-friendly, clean, and it provides a good summary of what you're protecting at a glance."
"Rubrik is a very scalable and high-performing backup restore solution."
"I don't know whether the tool has VMware integrations. It would be good to cover this area if it doesn't have those."
"One of the biggest drawbacks of Arcserve UDP is that it does not have a single console, making it an area that needs to be considered for improvement."
"Licensing can be quite difficult."
"The speed of restores should be improved. We have found the speed of large restores rather slow."
"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."
"A lot of their new technologies are not very good."
"The solution could improve by being more user-friendly. It can be difficult to assign destinations and choose which files and folders we need to back up. There are some aspects that are unclear."
"StorageCraft ShadowProtect can improve by making one console that can control backups of all desktops and servers in one place. Additionally, the recovery process of the backups is very slow and could improve. It's very slow when we went to recover a complete disc but to recover one file is very fast."
"The functionality is missing, but they are very receptive to our thoughts and ideas."
"I would like for unmanaged backups to be able to be saved in a separate policy."
"The deployment and configuration of the backup service is something that could be streamlined a little bit, particularly when you're trying to do a SQL workload. You have to install a backup service on the server. You only have to do it once and then you're done, but you have to do that on every server that you want to protect."
"Rubrik's disaster recovery capabilities could be improved."
"The web interface could benefit from some improvement, particularly in terms of alerting and dashboard clarity. The cloud web interface is somewhat confusing and could use more development attention. Additionally, it's essential to ensure that local on-premise management options remain available alongside cloud-based solutions, as internet availability can affect backup management. Regarding features, cross-hypervisor restore functionality would be a valuable addition, allowing for greater flexibility in restoring VMs across different environments."
"It is not Windows Cluster-Aware at the moment or Exchange DAG-Aware. If they add support for these particular use cases, it would be even better."
"With Windows, it is difficult to configure Oracle Database."
"It does not offer image-level backups for Hyper-V 2012."
