Nakivo Backup & Replication
What do you like best about the product?
Nakivo is truly simplistic to use and very efficient at what it does.
Very easy to setup with just a few clicks and it was done and running.
It tells you everything you need to know, such as backup time, if there were any issues or not.
You can set it up to be fully automated or run them manually, it is up to you.
and Intergating it to our Wasabi could was so easy a 5yr old could do it.
I use it daily for reporting and it has never let me down.
The support is also exceptional and helpful in a way that I have not experienced with any other solution we have tried. Also I was very surprised about its compression value onto our Wasabi Cloud platform. Dealing with the team at Nakivo has been an absolute pleasure. Nothing is too much and there are no stupid questions either, they are just helpful.
The platform itself is very elegant and easy to use, it is clean and purposeful with no jargon or useless bits added to it. Just works and that’s all anyone could ask for.
And the price point is excellent!!!

Our primary application of Nakivo centers on backing up our comprehensive VMware environment.
Operating within a VMware server, it serves as an integral component of our data protection strategy. This setup is crucial as it continuously safeguards our virtual machines, ensuring no data loss during critical workflows or unforeseen system downtimes.
By utilizing Nakivo in this specific context, we can efficiently replicate and recover our vital data stores, providing a reliable safety net for operations.
This reliability not only streamlines administrative tasks but also fortifies our approach to risk management, focusing on proactive measures and strategic resource allocation within our IT environment.
How has it helped my organization?
Nakivo has been instrumental in strengthening our data security infrastructure. By allowing the creation of cold stand-bys, it ensures immediate availability of recent backup data, minimizing potential downtime. This proactive measure is crucial for maintaining our operational resilience, ensuring consistent business continuity, and safeguarding client trust.
The automation of these processes has also enhanced efficiency, freeing our team to focus on strategic tasks rather than routine backup management.
What is most valuable?
Nakivo's robust support for VMware, including both ESXi and vCenter, is invaluable, ensuring seamless integration with our virtual systems.
The flexibility in setting up multiple repositories is crucial for diversified storage, enhancing data safety.
Moreover, Nakivo's outstanding customer service is a standout feature, providing swift, effective solutions, which is critical to maintaining operational continuity and confidence in our data protection strategy.
This comprehensive approach reinforces our disaster readiness and overall system resilience.
What needs improvement?
