We performed a comparison between IBM Spectrum Protect, NAKIVO Backup & Replication, and Veeam Agent for Linux [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery.
"It is very stable after deployment and will perform in a steady state."
"It is good in terms of functionality. My clients are very satisfied with this solution."
"The backup on real-time, especially for the virtual machine, archiving, and retrieving the reader from the backup repository and getting it online, getting it validated, then performing the data consistency check over the backup."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the centralized enterprise backup."
"It has increased our security, scalability, and high availability."
"The most valuable features are compression and de-duplication."
"Nothing beats this solution for file backup."
"We do not lose data. That is why we are using this product and have a backup in place."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of creating a backup copy job to get the backups to a second device."
"Nakivo is an easy-to-use, robust and cost-effective backup solution. I highly recommend it."
"The product license and support delivery have been great!"
"The virtual appliance for VMware vSphere is easy to deploy, easy to manage, and we have no need for additional Windows licenses."
"You can have it setup and running within a few minutes."
"Nakivo has been instrumental in strengthening our data security infrastructure."
"Nakivo gives users confidence in knowing that if something happens with their application server, exchange server, or other applications, they can recover it easily and quickly."
"The user interface is good."
"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."
"The solution is very user-friendly and has an easy to use interface. We can manage it easily. It allows for a simple backup."
"It is scalable."
"The solution is very simple. Management of the platform is so simple that we don't need to have any training to deploy this solution."
"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It's not complicated. It takes around half an hour to implement, but it depends on the performance of the server that you are installing the backup software on."
"What I find most valuable about this solution, is that the user experience is very simple."
"The software is very complicated. You have to do a lot of configurations to build a server, and you would need to backup and restore."
"I would like to advance reporting and analytics for the platform to see how much data is coming into the platform. how much data is expiring everyday, and what tape savings we are getting through reclamation."
"They need to do a better job on Windows, because if you are running Windows, the scalability is more limited than AIX and Linux."
"The deduplication must be perfect, and thus should be improved."
"This product should be more user-friendly for newcomers."
"In terms of features, they've got it all covered. The features they have are quite good. The only downside to it is that it is for an enterprise or big organization. In my opinion, it is not for a small business."
"RTO is a huge gap for us. If we had a disaster scenario and had to recover a bunch of stuff from tape, the RTO would be too long for us."
"High availability (HA) is a scalability challenge."
"There is a lack of native (web-based) update functionality."
"For us, it would be best to improve the speed of the backup instead of adding new features."
"The backup speed needs improvement."
"I would love to see compatibility with KVM Backup."
"We want the backup job to consume fewer resources, as the utilization is very high if we choose the best compression."
"The process for getting unused diskspace back from the data repository is slow."
"Sometimes, for some VMs and some Windows Server versions, specifically old versions (aka server 12 or older) fail due to the VSS writer error or locking file system."
"Compression and data deduplication are okay, but they could be improved."
"They could be more customer-friendly."
"Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."
"In new releases, I hope they can support Oracle cloud."
"It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform."
"The integration needs improvement."
"In the next version, I would like to see an increase in the locations online. I have found that other products have good pickup location."
"It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network."
"In terms of the physical environment, I'd like them to integrate it with other kinds of solutions. We don't just work with Microsoft or Linux, but other kinds of infrastructure data as well."
