Straightforward reliable backup
What do you like best about the product?
Nakivo pretty much just works - the initial installation is very straightforward compared to the competition, with configuration after installation being via web interface and no need to dig for settings. I had everything up and running performing backup of all my hosts plus two NAS units within an hour or two. Optimising everything took another day or two once I clearly understood the exact way that Nakivo operates, and since then, everything has been performing well. Backups run every day on schedule and I don't worry about anything being missed. The restore process is also straightforward (including generating boot media for physical hosts), which I appreciate. I found it easy to integrate with everything needed. I did validate a few configuration options with customer support during the first few days of operation just to make sure I had understood the documentation correctly and I received prompt, helpful and courteous replies that provide a lot of confidence in Nakivo.
What do you dislike about the product?
My only dislike is that it's not possible (as far as I can tell) to skip backup up the swap/hibernation file on Windows physical hosts, which results in some needlessly large backups. But storage is cheap, so this isn't a huge problem. Otherwise, everything works well!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Nakivo solves the problem of having no visibility in to remote backups. I'm using Nakivo to back up physical hosts in three different countries and have a single unified view on this now (previously, I had to check each backup had run manually, and verify everything manually, etc). The architecture of Nakivo with director and transporter is extremely flexible, this is a huge benefit for me.
Very good Product
What do you like best about the product?
I started using Nakivo as an alternative to well-known brands I used before. Initially, it was a matter of cost, but now it's a product I truly can't do without.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a minor issue when you remove a license from a Microsoft 365 account that's included in a backup job.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For our company, it has been crucial for data backup and immutability.
Easy to Install, Easy to Use. Cost Effective solution.
What do you like best about the product?
Intuitive UI, easy to deploy and manage. Very competitive Pricing compared to equivalent solutions from VEEAM and Druva. Reliable Backups across platforms. Robust security (immutability enabled/installed within onboard repository but can also be deployed to other repositories. Very easy integration with Hardware Deduplication platforms (Dell PowerProtect DD & HPE StoreOnce). Can be deployed to NAS system , VMware Virtual Appliance, Windows and Linux. It has a broad interoperability support on Windows and linux distributions. I also love that same console can be used for Infrastructure Backup and Microsoft 365 Backup.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't find something to state here because everything run smoothly and without errors or misconfigurations. Of course new features are needed to be fully comparable to other equivalent solutions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Actually we were looking for a more cost effective solution than the current one we use.
Exactly what they advertise. It installs in just five minutes and is incredibly easy to use.

The installation process was incredibly fast. It took me no more than five minutes from start to finish. The interface is clean, intuitive, and very easy to navigate. Despite its simplicity, the software offers a robust set of features that work reliably and efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
Up to this point, I have not encountered anything I dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a small organization, we need reliable solutions that are cost-effective but still offer a rich set of features. NAKIVO Backup & Replication solves this problem perfectly. It provides data protection and backup without breaking the budget. What’s even better, it covers all our compliance-related needs, allowing us to meet regulatory requirements.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
easy backup and recovery direct to the cloud
Completely satisfied
What do you like best about the product?
NAKIVO is easy to install and supports different operating systems, with particular emphasis on Linux support, which saves you an additional Windows Server license. The web interface is modern and largely intuitive. Where you don't get further directly, extensive documentation is available, and technical support is always reachable and finds timely appointments for direct assistance. All desired components, in our case ESXi VMs and a QNAP NAS, could be easily integrated. The system has been running stably for weeks without errors and crashes. Tests with the recovery were also successful. The trial phase could be booked independently and was extended without problems to clarify final questions. The price for the solution is absolutely fair and very attractive, especially for small businesses.
What do you dislike about the product?
The ordering process was comparatively cumbersome in contrast to the setup. After the test setup, it was actually quite clear what type of subscription was needed for which volume. Nevertheless, emails and a coordination meeting were necessary. However, once everything was set in motion, it went very quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Servers and NAS require regular data backups to avoid losing data in case of a defect. Additionally, old versions of files must be retained in case of accidental deletions. Both can be easily set up through the appropriately configurable jobs via the interface. We feel secure against data loss with the system.
