Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery (DR) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution's technical support team is very responsive and proactive."
"Rubrik is cheap, and you get good performance."
"A Google-like file search, system scaling, and a frequent development cycle are some positives that this solution offers."
"Features we have requested are typically added to the next product release."
"The archiving, off-of-box, is awesome. It lets you put your data where you want it and gives you the peace of mind of having more than one copy of it. And it's smart about the way that it does the archiving. It doesn't just copy one-for-one. It does all of its processing of the deduplication and compression before it sends it off to the archive, which helps with our cloud costs."
"When it comes to saving time managing our backups, Rubrik has saved us a lot of time compared to what we were using. It feels like it has saved us lifetimes of time because the process used to be difficult. It's not just the day to time savings. When something goes wrong, that's where the real time savings comes into play. We are able to get back to where we need to be more confidently and with much fewer steps."

"Setting up VMs can be done quickly. It is easy to use."
"We feel the ability to move virtual machines while they are still running to be the most valuable feature."
"Technical support is very proactive and helpful."
"When errors do occur, it can be a somewhat painful process to get to the bottom of issues."
"I have a personal want which might not necessarily make sense with Rubrik as a company or Rubrik as a software, but it'd be really nice if they could also handle things like item-level backups and restores of Active Directory objects and DNS and DCP objects."
"Improving PowerShell integration would greatly simplify Rubrik management."
"It does not offer image-level backups for Hyper-V 2012."
"Lacks availability in a NFR format of virtual appliances to test them in public cloud environment."
"They need to find a solution for SMBs. It is currently only suitable for enterprises or big customers. They need to find a solution that suits SMBs."
"It is a lot more expensive than other solutions, but you get what you pay for."
"The reporting, in particular the customization of reports, needs to be improved."
"It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution."

"When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient."
