    What do you like best about the product?
    NAKIVO Backup & Replication stands out as a reliable and intuitive data‑protection solution. Its simple interface makes configuring backups and restores easy, even for users without extensive experience. Managing both physical environments and VMware virtual machines is smooth, with fast and accurate restore procedures at both file and full‑machine level. The software delivers excellent performance and strong stability in daily operations. Another key advantage is the effortless integration with S3‑compatible storage. Connecting cloud buckets such as AWS or Backblaze takes only a few steps and enables the creation of hybrid or fully cloud‑based backup strategies with ease. Overall, NAKIVO combines usability, speed, and flexibility, making infrastructure protection a straightforward and dependable process.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    At this time, I don’t have any negative opinions about the product. Everything has worked smoothly so far, and I haven’t encountered issues that would lead me to view it unfavorably.

    Simplicity and Power with Room for Integration Growth

    Reviewed on Jan 14, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    I really like NAKIVO Backup & Replication for its striking simplicity without sacrificing power. The initial setup was relatively simple and convenient, with no difficulties or challenges. I also appreciate the Screenshot Verification feature, which, although a small feature, has a massive psychological impact. After a backup job runs, NAKIVO can automatically boot the VM from the backup file in an isolated environment, take a screenshot of the OS loading, and log the result.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The advanced integration gap is something I don't like. It lacks tight integration with ITSM platforms like ServiceNow or Jira Service Desk for automated ticket creation on backup failures, unlike larger competitors. Also, while it has its own failover orchestration, deep hooks into broader IT automation platforms for complex recovery runbooks are not a strength.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    NAKIVO Backup & Replication protects our VMware vSphere and Hyper-V VMs, solving slow backups and providing incremental backups, quick recovery, and VM replication for fast failover.

    Unmatched Support and Cost-Effective Backup Solution

    Reviewed on Jan 03, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    I really like NAKIVO Backup & Replication's Flash Restore feature, which helped us quickly determine if the restore point was clean from ransomware. The Immutability feature offers assurance that we are protected from good backups being wiped out. The cost is also a huge plus—it is 10 times less than our previous option. I appreciate its configurability as we are not limited by software restrictions or poor features, making it very robust. Most importantly, the live phone or Google Meet support with a software engineer is invaluable. Setting it up was very easy as NAKIVO assisted via Google Meets. Additionally, the excellent support made learning the interface much easier.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    It took me a while to figure out the interface, but that's on me. However, with NAKIVO's excellent support, they were able to walk me through until I got it figured out. Hand holding is important when critical restores are at hand.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    NAKIVO Backup & Replication provides reliable, granular backups of VMs, especially for Exchange Server. Features like Flash Restore ensure clean restore points, Immutability protects backups from being wiped, and the cost is significantly less than other options. Configurability and live support are invaluable.
