Has improved customer satisfaction through reliable replication and flexible deployment
NAKIVO Backup & Replication has positively impacted my organization and my customers because it is not expensive and easy to use. I can see all the backup and replication processes, and I can protect all my customer data. It's the best solution when compared with others. The time savings and customer satisfaction demonstrate specific positive outcomes. The customers are happy with the solution and appreciate that it is not expensive.

It's easy to use and restore. Tech support is also good.
Easy to use and restore. Restoring when there is issue. Backup bigger virtual machines (VMs). Six years. No. Some big servers don't seem to backup well. Good. Straightforward. It's easy to use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This product provides cost-efficient and reliable backups."
"We tried several competitors' software solutions, including Veeam Backup and Replication, but we have to say that Nakivo is the best choice when it comes to quality/cost ratio."
"For my purpose, I find VM Backup to be the most useful, as it gives me the ability to create image-based, incremental backups of VMware, Hyper-V, and Nutanix AHV VMs."
"The Nakivo solution provided us with the ability to do automatic scheduled app-aware backups with great deduplication and compression, so they don't overload our local area network and don't require a lot of storage space."
"The ability to use a variety of cloud providers rather than being tied into one is a huge bonus."
"The user interface is good, and it's user-friendly, and I also like its usability with hyper-convergence products like Nutanix and others in the data infrastructure."
"Most valuable for DimenXional Cloud is the API provided by Nakivo which allows us to implement the software in all types of solutions."
"This solution was surprisingly easy to configure."
"Easy to use and restore."
 

Cons

"I would like to see some additional models in the next release to make backups more functional."
"For us, it would be best to improve the speed of the backup instead of adding new features."
"Sometimes they are slow to respond."
"Due to the fact that we are HP and Fugit partners as well, it would be nice if Nakivo would allow support for HP and Fugit storage."
"At the moment I am pleased with what Nakivo does but I would like more reporting functions and, if possible, integration with my RMM system."
"It would be great if they had a Let's Encrypt integration."
"It would be helpful to be able to have a custom footprint so that only the required features are installed."
"Implementing more comprehensive data deduplication and compression techniques could optimize storage utilization and reduce backup times, improving overall efficiency."
"Some big servers don't seem to backup well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Nakivo has a good price-performance ratio."
"Nakivo is cheaper per machine and per backup."
"Nakivo Backup & Replication also have another great value, which is that it is one of the lowest prices on the market."
"The product is quite cheap compared to other products on the market, but despite this, it is rich in features both at the level of backup and recovery as well as at the level of additional options."
"Cost is very appropriate for SMEs."
"The prices are high."
"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."
"It has a very good price in the market."
