Overall Satisfaction with NAKIVO Backup & Replication

We are using NAKIVO Backup & Replication to back up ten virtual machines from our Nutanix cluster with some 80 virtual machines. Our goal is to replace the existing backup solution completely with NAKIVO Backup and Replication and to have an offsite backup of all important servers to one of our branch offices with a Synology NAS with NAKIVO Transporter installed. Offices are connected with a 500 MB VPN; the NAKIVO appliance is running on our Nutanix cluster. Currently, we are using an Enterprise Essentials license.

Pros

  • Easy to setup
  • Easy to configure
  • Works on Synology NAS

Cons

  • Older transporter versions should be allowed by switch instead of hidden expert option
  • Forever incremental offsite backups/synthetic offsite backups
  • Easy to setup replacement for a backup solution that just didn't want to work anymore
  • Less to do since less backup problems exist
  • Easy setup and configuration, so less education needed for IT personnel
Had some questions after setup, that were answered quickly. The only real problem I had was solved by the support within hours
