Backup services have become more efficient and now save time and costs for client protection
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for NAKIVO Backup & Replication is backup and recovery, as well as disaster recovery. As an MSP, I provide backup services to our clients, where our clients back up primarily virtual machines, but many also back up workstations and physical servers.
How has it helped my organization?
NAKIVO Backup & Replication has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to easily provide backup services to our clients.
This has affected my business in that NAKIVO Backup & Replication has helped us save time, reduce costs, and improve reliability for our clients, as it is much more price-efficient than other more popular solutions. It allows us to save time by not requiring a specific Windows server deployment, and we have verified its reliability by working with it for two years.
What is most valuable?
One of the best features NAKIVO Backup & Replication offers is its deployment versatility, as we do not need to deploy a Windows server and its licensing to implement NAKIVO Backup & Replication backup servers. Additionally, the web interface is much better and more user-friendly than other providers.
What needs improvement?
Improving NAKIVO Backup & Replication involves addressing the hassle of choosing the right license level when starting out, especially with specific requirements, and the lack of macOS support has been the biggest drawback when presenting NAKIVO Backup & Replication as an all-encompassing solution to our clients.
Additional needed improvements include faster update cycles for the latest hypervisor versions and the availability of macOS backups.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using NAKIVO Backup & Replication for two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
NAKIVO Backup & Replication is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
NAKIVO Backup & Replication's scalability is perfectly scalable, as it has the ability to connect to multiple repositories and even the feature of scaled-out repositories for multi-level storage.
How are customer service and support?
Customer support for NAKIVO Backup & Replication has been great, as they are helpful and quick to respond.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I previously used Veeam, but I migrated to NAKIVO Backup & Replication because of the licensing costs.
How was the initial setup?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing shows that NAKIVO Backup & Replication is more price-efficient than other solutions, and we are satisfied with the pricing.
What was our ROI?
The return on investment can be seen directly by the licensing costs, as well as the lack of requirement for a Windows Server license.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing shows that NAKIVO Backup & Replication is more price-efficient than other solutions, and we are satisfied with the pricing.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I did not evaluate other options before choosing NAKIVO Backup & Replication.
What other advice do I have?
My advice to others looking into using NAKIVO Backup & Replication is to have a meeting with a NAKIVO Backup & Replication representative, specifically about the licensing. I would rate this solution a 9 out of 10.
Robust data protection has safeguarded mailboxes and disaster recovery for our clients
What is our primary use case?
I usually have situations where users delete emails or important information is lost, or something disables an email account and then it's forgotten. It is easier to be able to back it up and restore that specific object directly within the same mailbox than having to look for PSTs and other files to find that information. With NAKIVO Backup & Replication, it is possible to search for that specific email and restore it. When comparing it to other solutions on the market, such as Azure, the cost is very minimal. If Azure costs one hundred dollars, with NAKIVO Backup & Replication it costs five.
I had a situation with a client where the entire data center went down, including the host completely with all its equipment, and NAKIVO Backup & Replication was a very important piece to restore all the machines and the internal servers that host contained. Since that experience, it has always been incredible with NAKIVO Backup & Replication.
How has it helped my organization?
What is most valuable?
What needs improvement?
I give it a nine because nothing is perfect. There are always solutions, and NAKIVO Backup & Replication is a tool that adapts perfectly to certain needs. However, we cannot dismiss that there are powerful solutions on the market that have been around for much longer. I rate it a nine because we can always improve.
For how long have I used the solution?
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I consider NAKIVO Backup & Replication to be totally stable. As long as it has all the correct sizing, it is a very stable tool.

What about the implementation team?
What was our ROI?
We have seen the return on investment because we have added value to our client and to our technology and managed IT services. We not only solve the client's operation and monitoring of their infrastructure, but we also give them that added value in terms of safeguarding information in general at the level of technology and the company's data.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I don't have the specific information, but I do have it at the cost level. Generally, with another tool you pay about 4,000 or 5,000 dollars. With NAKIVO Backup & Replication you pay 1,500 and you have a very powerful solution.
My experience with the pricing, implementation costs, and licensing of NAKIVO Backup & Replication has been very good because it is a tool which, as I have already mentioned many times, is economical. The implementation cost plus the license cost is very friendly.

I have jobs for VMware vSphere backups every day, which is a quick specific example of how I use it.
I only do backups for recovery purposes, specifically for disaster recovery.

The ease of use is what makes the Kingburn interface so valuable to me.
It has saved time and reduced risk while automating backups and ensuring ready to go recoveries.
NAKIVO Backup & Replication has positively impacted my organization with efficiency and very low backup speed, replication, and instant recovery that have really improved our workflow.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Has improved disaster recovery with seamless server replication and reduced operational costs
What is our primary use case?
We use NAKIVO Backup & Replication to replicate our workloads, as we run the VMware vSphere environment, allowing us to replicate those servers or VMs from production to DR.
Recently, just a few weeks ago, we had an issue with our storage on which the VMs were hosted, and thankfully, because we were running NAKIVO Backup & Replication, we had already replicated the servers from production to DR, so when the storage in production went off, we were able to bring up the servers at the DR site without any interruption, with just minimal data loss.
What is most valuable?
NAKIVO Backup & Replication has been useful; in terms of licensing, it is way cheaper than other solutions, and setting it up in terms of implementation was easier and not difficult to do. The user interface is friendly and straightforward to use.
The best features NAKIVO Backup & Replication offers in my experience include the VMware replication jobs, which allow us to schedule the replication of servers at specific times and move them as quickly as possible. The Change Block Technology (CBT) aspect helps us check if data has really moved without even turning on the server, by just looking at the reports that have been sent, making it a beneficial feature.
NAKIVO Backup & Replication has positively impacted our organization by providing much cheaper pricing compared to other solutions, which means we have saved more money, and integrating it with our solution, the VMware vSphere , is not challenging.
What needs improvement?
It would be helpful if NAKIVO Backup & Replication could explore other areas such as UNIX environments, like IBM AIX server versions, since most of the core banking applications sit on those, which we need to back up and integrate.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working in my current field for over a year, and I have been using NAKIVO Backup & Replication for over two years, with a year in my previous employment and more than a year in the current role.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
NAKIVO Backup & Replication is generally stable in my environment as it relies on the network to do its migration, so while it is stable overall, a stable network is necessary for it to run effectively.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
NAKIVO Backup & Replication is easy to scale up; we recently deployed a number of transporters in our two environments, making scaling straightforward.
How are customer service and support?
My experience with customer support for NAKIVO Backup & Replication has been largely positive; they are mostly available on weekdays, but if you need assistance on a weekend, you have to notify them in advance, making weekend support a bit challenging.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have had experience using Veeam, but my institution was using a different solution that lacked efficient replication features, leading us to switch to NAKIVO Backup & Replication, which offers easy use, flexibility, and a user-friendly interface. Previously, we were using Iperius, which was not too efficient.
What was our ROI?
I do not have much information on the return on investment, but I can say that if we were to go for other solutions such as Veeam, we would have paid much more, considering the number of servers we use in our environment. In terms of money, we have saved more, and because we are able to replicate everything from production to DR, we can now seamlessly work in any environment we want without needing many employees, as just one person in a single pane of glass can handle the switching.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing NAKIVO Backup & Replication, we evaluated other options, including Veeam and Iperius. Since Veeam charges per instance and had high costs based on the instances, we opted for NAKIVO Backup & Replication, which charges per number of sockets and does almost everything Veeam does, making it a better choice for us.
What other advice do I have?
I think NAKIVO Backup & Replication is a good tool and I would recommend it to anybody.
This review has been rated 9 out of 10.
I find this interview satisfactory and suggest that if there is an option to type or provide a video, that would be fine.

What is our primary use case?
My main use case for NAKIVO Backup & Replication is that I use it for replicas.
I can give a quick, specific example of how I use NAKIVO Backup & Replication for replicas in my work, as I use it for replicating all machines and data centers for all my customers, specifically MSP.
I handle replication for my customers with a file server, monitoring for the data center, specifically Hyper-V , and for cloning information for file servers and physical servers too.
