Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The intuitive interface allows you to set up and perform backups and restores easily."
"We frequently use the granular restore option for when our users accidentally delete files or to recover emails from mailboxes. We have found that to be a must-have feature and it comes with the solution at no extra cost."
"VM backup and the item level recovery are the most valuable features."
"We use the latest feature in Altaro called CDP (Continuous Data Protection) to back up our VMs as often as every five minutes. It allows us to make sure no data is accidentally deleted or overwritten."
"The most valuable feature of Altaro VM Backup is its ability to backup and restore various types of data, including Active Directory, application servers, and SQL Server databases."
"Valuable features for us include quick recovery, compression, and deduplication."
"Excellent compression and deduplication with off-site WAN backup included."
"It is an excellent product. It is easy to deploy, stable, and fast. Their support is excellent."
"The back-up and restore functions work great and it's easy to use."
"Nakivo Backup and Replication's web-based management interface enables intuitive, rapid, and seamless configuration and management of all backup and recovery functionality across the enterprise."
"The features that I have found most valuable are that it is a cheaper price and user-friendly."
"Perfect for someone who doesn't want to waste time."
"The easy management and a good overview are the most important aspects."
"I could install and configure the trial version in maybe half an hour and had a successful backup of our file server on the same night."
"The backup for physical machines and replication for the virtual environment are the most valuable aspects."
"The backup and replication are great."
"It would be nice to be able to recover the items to their original location."
"The initial set up was complex, and I was not able to do the set up myself."
"Basically, how it works is that you have a single local drive, and then you have a cloud backup. It'd be nice if you could rotate the single local backup drive. As of now, you can't."
"To improve Altaro, I would like to see the ability to choose more than one backup location at a time."
"Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful."
"If you look into the performance of a virtual machine and you look to the performance of the physical machine, the correlation between these is totally unclear."
"Stability."
"The scalability of the solution is limited."
"The upgrade process is a bit dated and could use some changes."
"While the solution provides mostly what we need, it would be ideal if there were some additional feature capabilities for the API."
"It is missing the file and folder backup; however, this product is meant for virtual machine backup and recovery, so that is really outside of the scope of the software."
"The backup speed needs improvement."
"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."
"We'd like to see a legacy environment backup, like AIX, etc."
"An improvement would be to include a general data backup solution that is not only for virtual machines."
"I think it is important to work not only in replicating the virtual machines in Amazon AWS, but in other cloud systems."
