Overall Satisfaction with Rubrik

Rubrik is being used across the whole organization to protect our VM environment and to protect our O365 solution.
  • [Infinite] incrementals (meaning one full and incremental backups thereafter).
  • [Fast] [performance], both backups [and] restores.
  • Easy setup and simplified configuration.
  • Amazing support.
  • Support for Calendar [and] Contact restores for O365 (it is on the roadmap though!)
  • We've been able to recover business critical VMs and user mailboxes within minutes.
  • [We've] [used] [the] replication feature to migrate VMs between data centers across the country.
  • [We've][used] export feature to mount VMs for testing upgrades without impacting production and leveraging Rubrik's storage.
We evaluated Veeam, Commvault, and Rubrik before deciding on Rubrik. We felt Rubrik gave us more features and flexibility in return for our investment. The ability to upgrade hardware in place was very enticing and ease of setup was just a plus.

Yes

Would you buy Rubrik again?

Although we only use it for protecting VMs and O365, Rubrik is well suited for protecting your entire infrastructure (we have tested file shares and DB backups but unfortunately we did not plan for these data sets to be backed up in Rubrik).
