- Avamar
Rubrik crushed Avamar in a side-by-side comparison. Out of the box, Rubrik was up and running quicker, absorbing backups faster and integrating with VMware much better than Avamar. We had faults with Avamar backing up SQL servers that did not happen with Rubrik. Overall, Rubrik beat Avamar in every test we performed. We have also removed Symantec NetBackup, BackupExec, CommVault and other backup products from our environment and expanded the use of Rubrik to remote sites.

Commvault has a faster restore, but takes much longer to perform the backups. We ran into issues with the backups stepping on each other as they were not completed sometimes before the next backup was to start.

- Cohesity DataProtect
There is no comparison, Rubrik worked right out of the box and even has support for IBM DB2 databases. Patches and upgrades have been performed without any issues. Database backups are run using default settings without any noticeable impact on the databases/servers and complete as quickly or nearly as quickly as native backups. Cohesity on the other hand needed extensive, on-going, custom tuning via undocumented parameters just to keep it working, and every patch broke the solution which then required more custom tuning. There were also issues with backup performance, we had to balance the impact of the backups on the database versus the amount of time it took to run the backups. We even reverted back to native backups for some of our larger databases because they just would not complete in Cohesity.
