Backup at low price
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I tried it for a lot of time and I can afferm that is a wonderful product. I am integrating it with a WD appliance so I can separate the backups from VM repositories. It's perfect also to restore Mailbox items of Exchange Server (very important for us).
Support team always available to support me.

Very Impressive Solution!
What do you like best?
It is easy to setup and offers great performance. In addition, we really like the built-in chat option that allows you to instantly talk to Nakivo support. I am really surprised that other companies don't offer the same. It really reduces the learning curve for the product and we were able to get some answers within seconds. We also love the native integration with Synology. Basically, you can have it up and running within minutes. Also loved the ability to download it as virtual machine which would reduce the workload on our windows server once we switch to Nakivo. Last, but not least, we like the current licensing and maintenance cost.
What do you dislike?
The interface itself could use some face lifting. While it is somewhat easy to use, it isn't looking that great. But that's really the only con I could come up with and it isn't really important for a backup solution, is it?
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
My organization is currently using Veeam Backup & Replication, but since I also recommend solutions to our customers as part of my enterprise architecture consulting work, I like to keep up to date with other products. In general, we are quite happy with Veeam, but many of the latest features are geared towards large customers. This might be great for some of our customers, but for small customers these enhancement also increase the price for features that we don't need. As such, I was really impressed that Nakivo is offering features that many smaller customers have been asking for. For example, you can download Nakivo Backup & Replication as a standalone virtual machine or even as an application installation for smart network storage solutions (e.g. Synology). Why is this important to me? As a small customer, it helps us saving cost for yet another operating system. Furthermore, these options typically also reduce resource needs (CPU and memory). Again, this might not matter for larger customers without resource restraints. What should matter to all customers is that Nakivo Backup & Replication is easy to use and includes enough bells&whistles to keep your data safe. More importantly, it does so at the same speed our existing Veeam solution does. So, yes, we are seriously thinking about switching over.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should really test it out. While it might not have all the bells & whistles like Veeam, it probably has all the features you really need.
Great product
What do you like best?
Setup was very simple, backup is reliable and consistent, with all the expected options you'd want from a virtual backup and restore solution. Great support. Free edition for two vm's which is great. Fair price too.

Very good and price efficient alternative to Veeam
What do you like best?
Coming from a KVM solution and migrating to VMware with two clusters, we were looking into a solution to backup our complete machines. Looking at the obvious competitors and testing a few, we noticed that the other software solutions seemed archaic and sometimes did not do a good job displaying backup progress or adding additional datastores as a backup target. Veeam being the industry standard for VM backups seemed way overpriced for what we want of the software solution. Besides, most used features that we (maybe) want to use in the future are already included in the Professional license.
We use this backup solution for our 2 VMware Essential clusters of 3 machines each. As long as we don't overlap running jobs everything just runs fine without intervention. We already tried to restore from the backups which resulted in a fully functional booting VM without corruption.

What do you dislike?
If you really need the extra features other packages offer, you look elsewhere. However, I cannot really think of a reason why anyone would need more features then already included the Professional/Enterprise license. This might be the lack of complexity in our situation :-)
We definitely can't see any downs, since the product did everything it promised and did not crash during our tests and production time.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
The complete absence of backups, not counting rsync as a backup. We now have backups on site and a backup copy job to our office from our datacenter site.
Stable and easy to use Backup Solution!
What do you like best?
Very well designed product! We use it in conjunction with a Synology-NAS as an Backup-Appliance.
It just works great for us and our customers, even exotic configurations like replicas on the same ESXi Host (2 different Datastores) are easy to setup up and just work!!
We are happy with NAKIVO Backup & Replication. Its a stable, time saving and reliable solution.

What do you dislike?
Nothing, since we only use the appliance mode, we cannot speak about the Version which needs an installation.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
We achieve fast and reliable image based backups for VMs
Very useful product

Simple to use and setup
Clean interface

What do you dislike?
I haven't found anything that I really dislike so far.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
We needed a backup solution to backup our Hyper-V cluster with offsite backup.
Nakivo does all this while running on our Synology NAS.

Plug and play for VM backups
What do you like best?
Like the title says its a robust plug and play like a solution for easily backing up virtual machines. The UI intuitive for basic needs, but still allows you to dig into a plethora of other settings. I also liked the seamless integration with other storage solutions like a Qnap. All in all, this is a good all in one backup and restoroition program for your VMware appliances. Also, the support is stellar.
What do you dislike?
Honestly, haven't had enough time to explore using Nakivo outside of VMware & QNAP ecosystem, so I worry that there may be compatibility issues if we decide to go with other virtualization and storage solutions in the future.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
The ability to have multiple snapshots of a VM over time is great if you need to roll back a few versions of your deployment.
NAKIVO magic
What do you like best?
The simplicity of the setup compared to other solutions. The interface is web-based and very engineer friendly. Screen-shot verification of the backup image is probably one of the best features, this gives me and my clients great piece of mind.
What do you dislike?
Not much at all. Auto failover would be great to have, but still we are just one click from having a client server back online and running services again. Cross platform restore would also be good. E.g backup from HyperV and restore to Vmware.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Client RTO time has gone from hours to minutes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Instant recovery on heartbeat.
