Overall Satisfaction with NAKIVO Backup & Replication

Backup to tape
VM backup agents to speed up backups between datacenters.
Network compression and acceleration between datacenters and the ability to deploy local agents at every datacenter with no cost to help speed up backups.
Easy to deploy OFV files LDAP integration for logging in but would much prefer SAML.
Locked down linux based server and transporters for the core product.
Not having to host this on a windows box that can get compromised as part of a malware attack is a huge benefit.............

Disk to disk to tapeBacking up VMware based guests across windows and Linux.Replication between reposMulti datacenter with clusters of VMware hosts. Can not speak to hyperv or baremetal since we are 100% vmware.Its a good backup solution that works well and is cost effective. The price has gone up since we first started using it but it is still in the affordable range. They also did not move to per core pricing like alot of other companies to steal more money from you. so there is that going for them
