Elegant interface, great design

  • May 23, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The UI is very easy to work with and extremely helpful with warning/informational management.
Documentation for errors or warnings was extremely easy to find and follow thus far.
What do you dislike about the product?
Newest version needed to be manually deployed rather than updated through QNAP app center. Mind you, the process was easy and documented well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Backups of virtualized systems
Recommendations to others considering the product:
So far this solution is quite impressive and easy to manage. I am looking forward to checking out advance features available and would recommend this to anyone looking to have their virtualized systems backed up.

Easy and powerful

What do you like best about the product?
clear and comprehensive interface, with help at all levels
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently, it is not possible to encrypt backup storage directly on a Synology
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the past, I used Nakivo in a VMware infrastructure to backup dozens of VMs.

Today, my working environment is Hyper-V and I was looking for a backup tool for VM. I also wanted the software to run on a Synology and not add a VM to the hypervisor (in case it crashes)

In fact, I downloaded Nakivo to test under Hyper-V and returned the same ease and power as for VMware.

So it was my inevitable choice for the backups, without hesitating!

Easy to set up and use, what more could you ask for:-)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy to use, can be installed on a NAS (Synology) and therefore does not require a dedicated VM. In addition, very efficient and fast.

What do you like best about the product?
I have tried and installed the following backup solutions veeam, vembu altaro, unitrend. So far nakivo is the only one that is compatible for esxi 6.7 and offers scheduling ability for its free/trial version

The backup and recovery warning message could be a bit more specific. When I deleted the original VM and performed a recovery, sometimes I got a warning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
setup and forget
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I use this with a synology NAS and it's very convenient for small setup.

Gem of virtual backup software hiding in plain sight

  • May 08, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, deploy-able via a lightweight, VM, even runs on a NAS. Simplicity and feature set make this backup product s no-brainer for small to large organizations alike.
What do you dislike about the product?
The upgrade process requires you to login to the appliance console and manual copy of a file. Could be more automated through the main GUI but still simple and well documented.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work for a large banking institution and looked at several solutions. Nakivo was superior to the other industry "leaders" in several categories such as API accessibility and lights-out automation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
100%

What do you like best about the product?
Nakivo Backup & Replication is a great product. The pricing of Nakivo is affordable and it's easy to use.
Next to that the customer support is great. The support always answer you as soon as possible and really try to help you.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that I don't like is when the app aware mode is on, the VM's that's getting backed up will lose conection.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We already made back-us on file-level but not on VM-level. Nakivo offers a great and easy solution for this.

Reliable Backups

  • May 08, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
1. Simple deployment model that can grow with your workloads.
2. Configurable. Create one time backup jobs or create schedules.
3. APIs. There is an API that can be used to automate almost every action required.
4. Failure Handling. Recovers from outside issues that would normally cause an error. If 1 VM has an issue the remaining items in the job continue.
5. Multi-Cloud. One tool can be leveraged to manage workloads in an on-premise environment or cloud hosted.

The main reason Nakivo was of interest was the ability to consume the API to provide a dynamic environment that can be changed as the workloads change. When VM's are created or destroyed the API can be leveraged to update or modify jobs as needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
Having an API is great but I wish it was more friendly. For example every action is called against :/c/router with a payload defining the request. Ideally when I want to get a list of jobs it should be an HTTP GET on a resource instead of always being a POST with the resource and method defined.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to dynamically configure backup jobs so that no workloads get missed. Nakivo provides a simple yet powerful means to provide the backup and recovery of your environment.
