"Overall IBM ProtectTIER is a great solution. It is easy to use."
"The solution is highly stable."
"The command-line interface is good."
"In terms of stability, I've found it to be very stable. I've walked into the server room when it was at 60 degrees Celcius, and it was still running fine."
"The cataloging is the best feature. It takes millions of frames for the backup. It's incremental, so it takes less time to complete."
"It is a very good and easy-to-use tool for non-technical people."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature has been the Live Mount feature."
"I would rate the solution's web interface at eight out of ten. It's just fantastic and intuitive. It's so easy to use. I've never done any formal training on Rubrik, but I was able to quickly come to grips with its capabilities."
"The most valuable feature of Rubrik for me is its user-friendliness and efficiency."
"Rubrik has made the process to manage backup and recovery painless. This frees up more time to work on other projects."
"What I like about Rubrik is its strong focus on security, particularly in combating ransomware threats."
"The web-based approach is the most valuable feature."
"Rubrik has brought all of our backups under a single pane of glass and made recovery extremely simple."
"The backup for a large amount of data is slow."
"IBM ProtectTIER could improve by being more user-friendly."
"Setting up the system to work with legacy equipment is a bit complex at times."
"The configuration wizards are still complex and hard to navigate. These should be easier to manage."
"I would like the possibility to back up the infrastructure and then replicate it upon on restart, without having to orchestrate the starting of the VM."
"The price of NovaStor NovaBACKUP is an area that can be considered as a weakness or drawback, where improvements are required."
"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."
"Troubleshooting failed backups is difficult, and deciphering the logs without the help of support is usually almost impossible."
"It needs to support more applications natively, like MySQL/MariaDB."
"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."
"Rubrik can only leverage cloud storage for archiving and has no cloud failover."
"Pricing is something that needs to be considered for improvement."
"The open source database needs to be supported."
"I would like for unmanaged backups to be able to be saved in a separate policy."
