Excelente performance and speed to backup and restore
Excellent value for money
What do you like best about the product?
The direct customer support is great. Many occasions got answers after hours. Product works as advertised. We are getting very good performance out of the system, and when we faced some misconfigurations , the support team was there to help us any time. Their support system is very transparent, integrated directly into the web interface. So far our tests only included vmware esxi vm backups and a few restores to test the system. There were no glitches with it. I particularly like that only the source is licensed, so we were able to roll out several off-site data backup locations to further protect the vital parts of our infrastructure.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no problems with Nakivo so far. I have only a minor grievance, that is in our scenario, we are running a second hypervisor just for the vcsa service, and in order to back that up I need to make manual clones to the main hypervisor, because it was only licensed to the 2 processors in the main system. It would be nice if all versions would include domain integration, so the deployment would be more secure than a single user/password pair. I wouldn't mind some sort of a feature that the transponders would not have to be offline for scubbing, because in some of our datastores it takes well over a half a day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a quite easy-to-manage, turnkey solution for our backups. Complexity in our backup systems reduced greatly by investing in the Nakivo solution. And now that the reports come daily it is a lot safer and more efficient to keep an eye on the backups.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Add maybe support for domain integration to all services. Consider a different approach for integrity check and cleanup that doesn't completely disable the transponder (or make the backup queued so that they would execute when scrubbing is done)
Nakivo is the bomb
What do you like best about the product?
easy to install, easy to use, inexpensive.It just does the job
What do you dislike about the product?
the support knowledge base is a bit slim
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's one of our backup and replications systems for our VMware infrastucture. It provides both local backups/replications but also replication to our out of state warm site

Nakivo + Raspeberry PI + External HDD
What do you like best about the product?
Nakivo Backup and Replication for it self has already very important software features that I give high-value importance such as the storage encryption and the large data accessibility on various type of file systems shares like CIFS,NFS, AFP and last but not least ZFS, but adding this software to the high range potentiality of a raspberry pi creates a easily configured device that can actually be portable to test in many network infrastructures. The external storage scale-ability is one of the strongest points in this method of backup application.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Software for itself has no Cons, the only downside is the raspeberry bandwidth limit on USB speed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Backup our file server with the extra layer security due to ransomeware protection that Nakivo offers when you install it on raspberry.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it out and see if it fits your needs.
Reliable and fast backups
What do you like best about the product?
Very fast backups + built in deduplication saves storage space. Very reliable, we've never had any failed backups with Nakivo. Support team is very responsive and competent and they always checks if ticket has been resolved.
What do you dislike about the product?
Bit pricey, but still very well worth it's price tags. Good products do have their price for an reason.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Backup reliability (we switched from competing product which we had too many problems with). Nakivo has been working very reliably and it's restore speed is very impressive, especially with FlashVM boot.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Absolutely worth trying. Easy to install and if you have eg. Qnap NAS, you can install Nakivo directly to NAS and offload some resources from VMWare to NAS.
Nakivo deployed on Synology
What do you like best about the product?
Nakivo deployed on Synology is a great storage + data protection solution, have being using it for quite a long time and am more than satisfied with speed and lightness of resources. Additionally Site Recovery goes embedded into the product making it all-in-one solution really easy and convenient to run. That helped me to create personal DR plan and always be prepared to disaster recovery.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to mention so far. Software works according to our expectations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
VM backup, replication, failover, backup to the cloud, backup copy, backup size reduction, screenshot verification and site recovery.
Software backup safe and easy use
What do you like best about the product?
facility to make copies and replicas of virtual machines
What do you dislike about the product?
in principle there is nothing that disgusts me of the software because it fulfills all my expectations
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Responsiveness: thanks to the saved copies, we can have all systems fully operational in a short period of time. This translates into a higher level of efficiency, which will enable us to restore information and services effectively.
Super backup solution for HyperV
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity and fonctionnality to install and manage the system. The speed of restoring file or vm is very good. ANd finaly the price is very competitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't find any problem for the moment, but the calendar dashboard view is not available in the Essentials Pro, it needs the Enterprise version which I found a basic option available in most of the backup solutions
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we were able to set up a secure backup solution between different sites in a very simple and efficient way.
Excelent value for the price
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of use along with the feature set
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside I have found is more of an out-side-of-scope of the program. It can only backup VM's. It would be nice if it had the ability to backup the host computers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Needed an economical way to backup all my VM's. Nakivo meet and exceeded all my needs for this. 3 Days after implementing the backup I had a customer call and needed a folder restored that he deleted.... Thank you Nakivo for making it easy!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it!
Nakivo the best fit for backuping Hyper-V with Synology !
What do you like best about the product?
Nakivo is a briliant all in one backup product and native suport of synology. We have been using Veeam before but because that software needs a Windows Server to work, we have been looking for an appliance.
Setup and configuration super fast, work perfeclty with Hyper-V !
