Cost effective and working backup for VMware environment
What do you like best about the product?
NAKIVO doesn't need Windows server. It can be run on QNAP NAS or as a virtual machine deployed from NAKIVO's ovf image and it supports transporters that can do dedublication on remote site and save bandwidth between sites. Management is done easily using browser.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't yet found anything that I actually dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used Quantum vmPro until I upgraded my VMware environment to vShpere 6.7 and that broke vmPro. Quantum has stopped developing vmPro so I needed to find another solution. I disliked Veeam as it required Windows server and was really happy to find NAKIVO as it was really close to vmPro's good parts, but much better.

All in one, powerful and cost effective
What do you like best about the product?
You can get all the features in one product easy to install, configure and update due to ready to run OVA appliances. The web interface is easy to use and you can create a user that can recover files without touching the VMs. Many powerful features such as replication, self healing, backup to the cloud, etc are included at no addictional cost and it works with free ESXi.
Technical support is very prompt in answers.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the web interface is not so fast when you are over the internet but is even simpler to deploy than a dedicated console. Waiting for an offload to Microsoft Azure in addiction to the Amazon AWS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reliable backup and replication with a single pane of glass to your backup infrastructure, predictable cost and room for upgrade with no limits.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use prebuilt OVA and deploy on linux. Don't go with your linux distro, it doesn't worth.
The best backup solution for HYPERv installations depends on your specific needs, but some popular options include Veeam Backup & Replication, Altaro VM Backup, and Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager. These solutions offer features like incremental backups, replication, and easy recovery options.

Easy, Reliable, Rich with features, Support for many storage devices
What do you dislike about the product?
When you restore a VM back to its original location, you must enter the full path of the storage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Obtain it. It will be the best decision you made regarding backup and restore options.

Affordable somution for SMBs
VMware ESXi backup made easy
What do you like best about the product?
You get NAKIVO to a much lower price than big competitive manufacturer (veeam) while offering everything you expect and need to keep valid backups of your virtualized environment.
NAKIVO even offers "Apps" for the major NAS brands to run the software direct on your NAS which reduces cost. Mostly I would recommend to use the Virtual Appliance as you should have this little ressources on your ESXi/Hyper V Cluster if you need such a Virtual Machine backup solution...

What do you dislike about the product?
If you still use older ESXi versions in combination with older exchange servers (for example ESXi 4.1 with Exchange 2007) NAKIVO won't be able to use log truncation. Also you have to install a alternative "transporter" to use older ESXi versions - every time you did an update of NAKIVO itself. But that's not a big deal and won't affect many of us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick and stable backups and the knowledge to be able to react in the event of an emergency.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you search for a Backup solution for ESXi/Hyper V use the Trial of Nakivo and check the license prices. You won't regret it.
Works and it's pretty easy to manage
What do you like best about the product?
The web interface is really usefull and allow end user to recover files without interact with a Windows application (we are using Linux and WIndows clients). It's really cheap compared to the other solutions and offer a good support with integrated chat on the main control webpage. From a functional point of view Nakivo allow the replication and implement incremental/full backups and data deduplication. It also allow to exlude from the backup log files that are not always usefull.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI looks old but it is ok. Only don't look for "whistles and bells".
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Nakivo I can setup file backup and replication jobs in few clicks. I can have a low downtime (not aiming to 100% uptime) with replication and a second server that will be bringed up when the main server fail.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ask for a demo, it will take 20/30minutes and explain you a lot of license related functionalities
Nakivo - Simply Works with Easy Installation
What do you like best about the product?
We tried Nakivo and we were gladly impressed by the features and ease of use. We recommend this product very much!
What do you dislike about the product?
Not really dislike ... but for our market it would be ideal if we could buy Pro and Enterprise Licenses for just one VM rather than the compulsory 2 VMs. Malta has many small businesses which would really benefit from this!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had no issues till now, and when we had minor issues, Nakivo online support was very efficient.
