Plenty of useful feature and reliable
We use Asigra for backups I have found all the features useful in the solution. I have been using Asigra for approximately two months. The solution is stable. The six people in our IT department are using the solution. The initial setup was a medium difficulty level. Some parts were complex…

Robust data protection has safeguarded mailboxes and disaster recovery for our clients
NAKIVO Backup & Replication has released many updates lately and at this point it works excellently. Needs will always appear, particularly around the AI topic and other things that come out over time. I understand that solutions always have to keep moving forward, but so far I see it as excellent.I give it a nine because nothing is perfect. There are always solutions, and NAKIVO Backup & Replication is a tool that adapts perfectly to certain needs. However, we cannot dismiss that there are powerful solutions on the market that have been around for much longer. I rate it a nine because we can always improve.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Asigra is a cost effective solution and very competitive in the market."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"The Asigra product on the whole is a fantastic solution and I would highly recommend this as it delivers everything our business and our subsequent customers required."
"Flexibility really means a lot for us. Being able to address almost every client backup and recovery requirement means that we have a tremendous amount of confidence as do our partners that Blueshift is going to be able to deploy a solution quickly and efficiently."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"Simplicity, very easy to restore user data, means that we don't have to request off site tapes to be delivered to the office, can easily access the cloud data and restore most data within minutes."
"The solution has been very stable."
"Since we have implemented Asigra we don’t have an administrator to do manual backup to tapes and external HDD; everything is automated and there are no hassles for the administrator."
"This product has a very clean and intuitive GUI."
"All in all, a very good company to deal with; I would highly recommend their backup products, as they work extremely well, and the whole product is valuable in every sense of the word."
"NAKIVO is easy to use and pretty easy to set up."
"The product is very scalable, robust, has an easy setup with a short-duration deployment and good technical support."
"The most important feature besides the easy management of the different backup jobs is the automated e-mail notification functionality."
"The most valuable feature is the support, as it is directly from Nakivo and it is possible to send a support request that contains all of the technical data on the environment, as well as the software, required for the answer."
"We have found all the features of Nakivo to be useful and the solution is easier to use compared to Proxmox. It is user-friendly, we are very satisfied."
"NAKIVO Backup & Replication is very easy to use."
 

Cons

"I think the product needs more diversity in Hyper-V."
"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"The UI could do with a facelift."
"The management could be a bit better."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"Asigra's implementation and day-to-day costs are very high; necessary features can significantly increase the cost of implementation."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"Nakivo's implementation documentation could use a little beefing up."
"Updating VM tools on a replicated VM could be better."
"UI could use some upgrades. The UI is basic, but functional.​"
"Compression and data deduplication are okay, but they could be improved."
"The feature that has a backup repository, like QNAP + ext. HDD's could be improved."
"It would be ideal if they offered a support portal for users."
"The reporting features could be enhanced to provide more detailed and customizable reports for better insights into backup operations."
"Updating VM Tools on a replicated VM could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."

"Regarding the licensing, I would advise speaking to the Nakivo representatives and you can get the best option for your environment."
"The licensing model is very affordable compared to competitors, with a good quality-to-cost ratio, and the software is quite simple and fast to setup."
