Enterprise IT & Security Mid-size IT & Security
The integration of this with vcenter is fantastic. The backups are lightening fast and restores are exceptionally easy.
No more broken snapshots caused by a proxy crash.
It's ease of backing up vm's on all hypervisors that matter the ingestion deduplication and compression is amazing especially when pushing to cloud.
The RBAC controls are weak currently and the alert management is too high level. The sql backups can be missed if the server is too busy but this is a pro too.
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.
Missing a few features, many of them are legacy, but still missing. Every release gets more features.
Its easy to use and it works every time. Support is fantastic if you have to get help.
Limited reporting built in to the system and not much report or audit customization availible. Also lackluster RBAC implementation.
The simplicity of backups is amazing compared to some competitor products. We've owned the product for 1.5 years now and we're still as happy today as we were when we first purchased it.
My biggest complaint is, there is no Cohesity sponsored user training. Many other software businesses offer some user training.
Cohesity is an amazing platform that greatly reduced out data management and backup footprint. I really like the ease of use and ability to have one place to go for all of our data protections needs.
There is one of our VMs that the Cohesity could not index, so we're forced to leave it unindexed.
They people are great and are providing an excellent service. Cohesity is a forward thinking company looking to stay ahead of the curve and provide that best data experience.
Application backups (Exchange, SQL, AD) will all require an agent and the agent management is very poor in my opinion.
We have had a very positive experience with the tool. The ability to integrate with multiple virtualization platforms and manage all of them in the same way has been really great.
Cloud storage is a bit hard to get a handle on, as far as how much will actually be replicated.
Joshua: I'm Joshua. I'm a security and infrastructure engineer. I give Cohesity four out of five stars. And for more reviews, click below. Cohesity is our primary backup product, as well as a product that we use for SMB file shares. My favorite thing about the Cohesity product is its ease of use. As a small shop, the administration within the Cohesity gooey makes it easy to check my backups, set up new policies, and verify that files are up and able to be accessed by our users with just a couple of clicks. The biggest challenge probably with Cohesity is the storage planning tools. I wish they had a little bit better tools to help plan for future consumption. But with that said, the tools that are there are okay. I just think they could be a little bit better.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
