So, it has helped to improve our productivity. The data is being captured about our customers periodically that is secure and safe."
"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."
"Automation functions, image based backup, and the ability to instantly recover anything from files to databases."

"They should give more access to the backend capabilities. From a customer point of view, you do not have access to all the features on the system.

"The price of Rubrik is too high, especially when you are considering a change in the total backup solution."
