Compared to other tools that we have used in the past, Rubrik is miles ahead in this space. > > **Cons**: The migration to the Rubrik Security Cloud has been a little tedious and some items are not fully implemented as they were in the local CDM. Once these are ironed out, we will be back to fully satisfied with the product. ----- ### "Works like it should" — 5.0/5 > **Jason** | *8 July 2024* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use, great support. always innovating. > > **Cons**: Just minor things like not being able to push agents out. Better support for ReFS. > > Rubrik is easy to use and recovery times are quick, it works as expected\! ----- ### "One of the best around\!" — 5.0/5 > **Andrew** | *14 October 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Speed. Backups are very quick, restores (especially instant ones) are very very quick. > > **Cons**: Sometimes figuring out why a backup failed requires you to open a support ticket, the errors aren't super useful or help and a lot of times it's a quick fix from them but a more descriptive error message would point to the same thing. > > Moved to Rubrik from Avamar and it's miles better. APIs, software, speed, not having to have accelerators or proxies. Have had a few issues with figuring out a backup or new feature but one here and there is nothing compared to before. Support it useful and usually knows what to do but sometimes it does take a few tries. ----- ### "Old man yells at cloud" — 5.0/5 > **Kristinn Rafn** | *1 July 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The simplicity and how things just work. Rubrik support is also excellent unless you need support with Envoys. > > **Cons**: Being forced to move from on-prem management to cloud > > Overall everything works as described. It needs proper Postgresql support and better backwards compatability for legacy systems and the development is far too cloud focused for me. I want local access to the system and to be able to manage in the datacenter. ----- ### "One of the Best Purchases I've Ever Made" — 5.0/5 > **Daniel** | *27 August 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Rubrik appliance is reliable, has a robust feature set, their support team is world-class (seriously the best in the game), and updates add awesome new features far more often than new bugs. > > **Cons**: It can be a little pricey for small to mid size businesses, but It's well worth that cost. Other than that I have zero complaints. > > There was one time that a fellow admin permanently deleted some backups without receiving confirmation on if they were still needed. It turned out that they were still needed and that the backups would be unrecoverable. There were multiple prompts to confirm this action, so we should not have expected it to be recoverable. However, the fantastic support team at Rubrik said "We can't make any promises, because the data should be deleted already. However, we're going to have our engineers use this as an educational experiment." While they were not able to recover all of the data, as it had been overwritten, they were able to piece together enough for us to get the most critical files. I have never seen a support team go this above and beyond the reasonable call of duty. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/155236/rubrik?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/155236/rubrik) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
