Overall Satisfaction with Rubrik

We use Rubrik in our labs for our support team to learn with. We also have customers that we manage that run Rubrik as well as we support Rubrik with customers we resell to. Our teams are constantly growing and additional members are being trained on it. We currently protect our labs and some production resources and leverage the cloud features and replication.
  • It is very easy to manage and just does its job well. Very little break-fix.
  • Stable and trustworthy - It just runs and we can feel confident our backups happen.
  • Alerting and reporting with email as well as Polaris are excellent.
  • Increased support for agent level items such as SharePoint, active directory, and exchange.
  • Simpler recovery of exchange data.
  • Managing multiple clusters through Polaris would be great to have.
  • With the minimal management requirement it has decreased the amount of time spent managing backups.
  • Simple to deploy for our customers.
  • Highly expandable. Growing a cluster is very painless.
Rubrik has a simple to use interface and day to day management is very simple yet it doesn't sacrifice flexibility. Expanding capacity as data grows is very easy and does not require downtime. Upgrading is simple and efficient. Setup and configuration are straight forward.
Their support team is fantastic. They take pride in their work and will take the extra time to answer questions or demonstrate features. Their team makes you feel like they are driven to make it easy as can be.
Both offer highly flexible solutions. Rubrik offers simplicity and stability. No solution is a set and forget but Rubrik is as close as you can ask for.
Rubrik excels in virtualization backups and recovery. It's simple and reliable. The instant recovery is excellent.
The agent features for physical servers is always improving but still limited in some features. One big weakness is during restores if there is an error while putting files back to their location it is often reported as successful which is slightly misleading. This only occurs when the agent lacks permissions to put files back.
