Offers replication flexibility across multiple environments, including local centers and secondary sites
It offers key features like any point-in-time recovery without needing scheduled snapshots. It allows for automated VM protection during processes like failover and testing, and it offers replication flexibility across multiple environments, including local centers and secondary sites. It also provides IP address management when network configurations differ across sites.
Sumanth Chowdary - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Technical Consultant
Centralized automation has improved cloud backups and strengthens disaster recovery readiness
One area where Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS could improve is expanding advanced analytics and predictive monitoring capabilities, especially for identifying backup risks, storage optimization opportunities, and recovery readiness trends more proactively. The platform could also benefit from deeper automation around recovery orchestration and policy-based remediation workflows for large-scale enterprise environments. Another improvement area is more granular customization in reporting and dashboard views to support different operational and compliance requirements. I also think broader integrations with security monitoring, ITSM, and DevSecOps ecosystems would further enhance operational visibility and workflow efficiency. Overall, the core backup and recovery capabilities are strong, but continued enhancements around automation, analytics, and ecosystem integration would make the platform even more effective. In my day-to-day operation, I have found that in larger or more complex AWS environments, deeper filtering and more granular reporting customization would be helpful for operational teams managing multiple workloads and accounts. More advanced automation for recovery orchestration and proactive alerting around backup anomalies would also improve efficiency further. Expanding predictive insights around storage growth, backup optimization, and recovery readiness would add a lot of value for long-term cloud resilience planning. Overall, the platform works effectively operationally, but these enhancements would make large-scale management even smoother and more proactive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"When it comes to disaster recovery, this is one of the best solutions there is for EMC products."
"The speed and the footprint the solution uses regarding storage are great."
"It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."
"The generalization of the journals allows us to go back in time and choose the snapshot suitable for us. We can grab it as needed."
"The workload can be moved directly if the disaster site is the main site."
"The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes."
"Overall the product is really good."
"Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature, and its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable."
"Overall, these features make day-to-day backup operations more structured, reduce operational overhead, and improve confidence around recovery preparedness and cloud resilience."
"Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS helped us automate backup scheduling and policy management, gave us centralized visibility with a dashboard across AWS workloads of multiple accounts, helped us with a faster recovery process, and majorly reduced our operational overhead while improving our ransomware and data protection."
"Previously, if we had any disaster or any issue, it would take days to bring the environment back up to the original state, and with Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS, we can do that within a couple of hours, which greatly reduces downtime in the case of disaster recovery."
 

Cons

"In the next release of this software, I would like to see options that help to decrease the bandwidth required, such as compressing the data."
"The solution is not easy to use. It's actually quite hard. If it could be simplified it might be better for the end user."
"Maybe integration with Kubernetes for OpenShift would be helpful."
"The price of this product could be lower."
"It would be good to have a critical application on the customer side."
"Their L1 support is not so good as of now. They have recently outsourced to a company, and they are not doing good."
"Although we can change the IP address, it would be good to have some other sort of orchestration to make life easier to manage when we failover."
"It can have better integration. It would be good if, in addition to VMware VM, it can also support other hypervisors. I also want to see support for Oracle databases. As of now, it supports only SQL and Exchange. It would be good to also support other databases."
"Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS has a fairly small market presence."
"Regarding customer support, as this is a very new product and relatively new in the market, I am not sure how long they have been around, but there seems to be a lack of understanding with the support team."
"One area where Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS could improve is expanding advanced analytics and predictive monitoring capabilities, especially for identifying backup risks, storage optimization opportunities, and recovery readiness trends more proactively."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a license required for this solution and the pricing depends on how many virtual machines you have."
"Pricing-wise, it is pretty much fair for any customer who only has a VMware environment. Licensing is based on the number of VMs that you want to protect at any given point in time. Licensing is not based on size."
"This is an expensive product."
"This is not a very cheap solution and compared to others, it is expensive."
"It was a part of a backup solution. So, it was free for us."
"The tool is expensive. If one means cheaply priced and ten means expensive, I rate the tool's price as a seven."
