Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Every new version has got some tweaks and improvements in stability and speed."
"Nakivo's backup and replication product has provided us with a solution that meets our requirements and we are definitely better off using this solution."
"Backup jobs are running smoothly every day with job reports sent to email after they finish each job. That gives us peace of mind."
"This product has helped to centralize backups and made it easy to recover data."
"We were looking for a product that is easy and simple to use, this product perfectly fit and ended up becoming a mainstay in our portfolio of products that we can't live without."
"For the most part, I don't have anything I'd change for this small type of environment."
"This product was going to be a temporary solution at the start of our journey but ended up becoming a mainstay in our portfolio of products that we can't live without."
"The product is excellent, easy to use, and has a lot of beneficial features."
"The reliable backup and restoring of the Salesforce data is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
 

Cons

"Their product is good and it meets our requirements, however, new features are also most welcome and we never hesitated to try new features."
"The backup speed needs improvement."
"I think it is important to work not only in replicating the virtual machines in Amazon AWS but in other cloud systems."
"The way encryption is currently working could be improved. Currently, it's not possible to encrypt the backup to an NFS share directly. It needs to have the encryption within the Transporter/VM to enable encryption, which isn't optimal. So I'm hoping that in the near future this function will be implemented."
"We are satisfied with Nakivo, but if anything could be improved, I think it would be more real-time as opposed to email support availability."
"I think it is important to work not only in replicating the virtual machines in Amazon AWS, but in other cloud systems."
"The product needs to improve backup speed and replication speed."
"UI could use some upgrades. The UI is basic, but functional.​"
"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"There is need to do the same for the other SaaS applications."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"This product provides good value for the price."
"As a free solution for a small environment, this is a great solution!"
"You have a lot of different options when it comes to pricing and the pricing models are pretty flexible and affordable."
"The prices are high."
"Cost is very appropriate for SMEs."
"Talk to the sales department about all of the possibilities, as they will help you to find the best solution for your setup."
"The licensing currently allows for host-based licensing, which is advantageous if you have a lot of data on a few hosts."
