We performed a comparison between Azure Site Recovery and NAKIVO Backup & Replication based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery (DR) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."What I love about Azure Site Recovery is its simplicity for basic configurations."
"The most useful thing is that it provides a snapshot of your environment in about 15 minutes. It is stable, and it always works. It is also scalable and easy to set up."
"Azure Site Recovery allows my company to save around 30 percent of the time on every VM that we need to back up and restore."
"Site Recovery's most valuable features include its user-friendly console and the ease of migration."
"What I like best about Azure Site Recovery is that it's easier to use because my organization already has Azure as an Active Directory solution."
"Provides generally good performance, from protection to production to failover to data recovery."
"Our primary use case is for disaster recovery and business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR)."
"The solution is secure, reliable, and scalable."
"We really appreciate the simplicity of the solution."
"The speed of the backups and replications is fantastic and, for the most part, the simplicity of use has been wonderful."
"Nakivo makes our backs-ups more reliable and easy to recover in case of full damage or partial retrieval of files - all at a convenient cost."
"The ability to restore in a catastrophic event is priceless, since every company must use a backup solution of some sort."
"Nakivo's reporting features have helped a lot. They give my boss high visibility into what's going on, which is crucial because we had a data breach in the past where we lost about 12 years of data. That's why we bought several appliances, and we replicate the same backup twice a day to three different depositories."
"It has saved us numerous times from power outages and server failure."
"The updates are problem-free, so we can keep Nakivo up to date on the server and NAS too."
"I could install and configure the trial version in maybe half an hour and had a successful backup of our file server on the same night."
"The immutable backup could be better."
"Could have more integration with other platforms."
"The support team took a lot of time to respond and was not very professional."
"It could include more of a backup and recovery."
"The pricing predictability and clarity around the final cost of the plan of this solution could be improved."
"The product's performance is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It would be good if we could replicate the solution to multiple locations simultaneously because we are currently allowed to replicate to just a single location."
"Azure Site Recovery's deployment is complex. There are a lot of bugs, and it needs to improve stability."
"In the future, I would like to see support for backing up data to more cloud platforms, besides Amazon."
"The only thing we have encountered that we would like to see improved in the future are error messages. They could be more detailed and helpful, without the need to send logs to support. Failing that, the part of the log related to the error could be displayed alongside the error message, so I can investigate the error without looking through all of those logs that I'm able to download."
"It would be interesting if it were possible to integrate a mobile app to monitor the system in real-time."
"An improvement would be to give us more control over the email alerts, with different emails going to different addresses based on a set of rules."
"It would be good if I could have a remote upgrade of our Synology Transporters, but the manual upgrade is easy and no problem at all."
"One of the things I liked least about this software is when an update was pushed to one of the servers we had, somehow we didn't receive the update and needed some quick troubleshooting."
"There could be better integration with other solutions, such as Amazon S3."
"Automatic updates do not work, and every update has to be done manually."
