My primary use case for NAKIVO revolves around its efficient backup and replication capabilities for virtual machines within our environment. We operate in a dynamic IT landscape, serving several dozen clients with varying needs. NAKIVO's flexibility is paramount; we can seamlessly deploy it either on a NAS or as a virtual machine on the host, accommodating the diverse setups of our clients. In our environment, ensuring data integrity and availability is critical. NAKIVO's ability to back up entire virtual machines automatically, along with timely notifications, serves as a pivotal time-saving mechanism for us. We leverage its features extensively for routine backups and replication tasks, enabling us to maintain data redundancy and disaster recovery preparedness across our infrastructure. Moreover, NAKIVO's user-friendly interface and straightforward reports streamline our operations. Quick access to support staff and a comprehensive knowledge base further enhance our experience, ensuring any issues or queries are promptly addressed. While NAKIVO excels in meeting our backup needs, we've encountered challenges with version compatibility and collaboration between NAKIVO and QNAP, our chosen storage solution. Additionally, the discontinuation of the "Basic" license has posed some concerns for smaller clients within our portfolio. Nevertheless, NAKIVO remains our go-to solution due to its affordability, reliability, and effectiveness in safeguarding our virtualized environment. Whether it's restoring entire virtual machines or ensuring seamless data protection, NAKIVO continues to play a pivotal role in our IT strategy.

Our primary application of Nakivo centers on backing up our comprehensive VMware environment. Operating within a VMware server, it serves as an integral component of our data protection strategy. This setup is crucial as it continuously safeguards our virtual machines, ensuring no data loss during critical workflows or unforeseen system downtimes. By utilizing Nakivo in this specific context, we can efficiently replicate and recover our vital data stores, providing a reliable safety net for operations. This reliability not only streamlines administrative tasks but also fortifies our approach to risk management, focusing on proactive measures and strategic resource allocation within our IT environment.

I use the solution for the backup and replication of VMs. I use Nakivo to back up in-house VMs. We also use the replication features of the product. With such an option I can just switch on the second standby hardware over to a replicated server at a fraction of the time, thus taking a lot of pressure off us in the case of mission-critical operations. It's a good asset in our IT department. it has an easy installation deployment and an easy control panel to administer. I highly recommend it.

We use Nakivo Backup and Replication to protect our critical data from virtual and physical machines. It is also very important to control the correctness of backups, which allows us to recover data after a failure. We also use the Wasabi cloud copy function. We replicate copies to the offline environment. We also secure our SQL servers by using the ability to run scripts before and after the backup. We use developed and implemented backup policies and schedules. We leverage the possibility of making a copy of Microsoft 365

We have a new VMware vSphere Cluster with several Virtual Machines (Windows-based and Linux-based). We needed a new backup solution for those new workloads. I deployed in a second site, a new backup server with a storage SAN directly attached. I deploy NAKIVO B&R in a virtual appliance and with it, I protect all of the inventory of the VMs and save the backups and data in a backup repository with an immutability feature. At the moment, we don't use Replication, however, I studied this feature. Maybe I will deploy this feature in the future on some new vSphere hosts in a DRP site.

We use the solution as a VM backup from local servers and remote data centers. Nakivo is installed on a NAS device at the office, and it doesn't need any external servers to run. That makes it really easy to deploy, and in case of disaster for servers, the NAS device is totally separate from them, and backups can be restored quickly to another environment where ever is enough resources to run them. The remote data center can also be backed up to a small repository on that data center and then copied over an internet link to the office, where I have more space to store backups.

We use the product to back up our entire ESXi server data center as well as our physical servers and CIFS folders across ten branches. We also use it to back up our Office 365 data. In addition, we use Nakivo to replicate our VMs in our disaster recovery continuously, as well as to perform tests regularly for failover scenarios. We also use it as a monitoring system for our infrastructure. If a VMServer has an outage, we get alerted by Nakivo by mail. Finally, Nakivo has helped us get a good picture of our backup strategy.

We did a manual backup of our VM's before. Nakivo was a cheap alternative to this, and we do it all for us now. Furthermore, we have used disaster recovery a few times, and it worked like a charm and saved us money and time. We have used the software so much that we became partners and certified. We use multi-tenancy very much as well, so we can manage multiple customers from one site. That makes it much easier to see if all backups have been run without errors and set up multiple jobs from one site so that we don't need VPNs and such for configuring customers' sites. All in all, Nakivo helped us save a lot of time.

As a software house, we make heavy use of the VMware vSphere environment for hosting our test lab along with the software repositories and other data. There are some software repositories, file shares, and a VMware vSphere environment with about 60 virtual machines (few transient but the majority evolving), all weighing in at around 3.4 TB of data to backup. Our data is mostly NAS-centric so we need a comprehensive solution to back up our NAS, possibly without allocating an additional instance of operating system and related hardware. It is also necessary to make local and offsite backup copies of our data without recurring, if possible, scripting.

We use the solution to backup just one virtual machine running at VMware ESXi 5.5/6.0. The backup is made according to the planned schedule, e-mail notification after the success or errors were OK. Weekly reports can be enabled too. VMware servers are at ten offices in different locations. Nakivo B&R is running at Qnap NAS with different models - TS-251A/TS-X53II/TS-X51/TS-269 - all with two disks in Raid, and 2GB or 4GB RAM is needed. Recovery is simple and quite fast for my VMs which are about 100GB in disk volume. One instance Nakivo B&R has connected 2 ESXi hosts.

We use this software to back up all of our servers, databases, and log files as well as create bare metal recovery backups incase a server fails. When a server has failed in the past, Nakivo's been a great help as it's able to restore an entire operating system with its configuration and files basically everything. Therefore, when a server failed we simply wiped the drive and restored everything via Nakivo and haven't had a single problem. We've never had a restore operation fail on us due to a corrupted backup. This amazing software is highly recommended. We also use it on our Hyper-V environment and it's able to restore directly into Hyper-V and start the VM with no configuration required afterwards as it's a 1:1 replica of the server.

We use the product for the backup of our VMs (Virtual Machines) which are located in a remote location. We have scheduled the backups for every day which is very convenient as it runs automatically. We can also run backup whenever we want according to our convenient time. The user interface is very easy to use and you can set it up in sometime without any issues. They also have cloud integration option for the backup to be stored on cloud platform such as Amazon and Wasabi.

We needed a backup solution that would back up all over Virtual Machines (VMware) and have a safe, fast, and reliable recovery process when needed. Nakivo has allowed a worry-free backup process. The interface is basic and very easy to use which is what we are looking for. Setup is a simple task I manged to setup all the backup process by myself and if I had any questions the technical team was there to guide me and backup reports and notifications keeps you informed if there is any issues.

Our backup solution is quite unique. We have two data centers that require bandwidth throttling to ensure that business traffic does not get affected by the backup/restoration. Both data centers are using VMware, however, our smaller data center is using a small server that only has a single core. Therefore, we need to use the director from the larger data center which traverses over the VPN. This solution allows us to do exactly what we need, all while being very easy and very cost-effective.

We use the solution for the backup of VMs and some replication. We generally use Nakivo to backup in-house VMs. In more mission-critical situations, we also use the replication aspect of the product. This ultimately means that we can just switch on new hardware over to a replicated server at an instant, thus taking a lot of pressure off us in the case of mission-critical operations. It's a huge plus in any IT department. The product's strength is that it is easy to install and very easy to administer. I highly recommend it.

We are using Nakivo for backing up multiple Virtual Machines hosted over ESXi hosts in various locations. The hosts vary from 6.0 to 6.7 and previously we had Nakivo running for 5.5 hosts as well, which have since been dismissed. When we started, we had also older 4.1 hosts which were covered by a special transporter used for legacy systems. Since then, we have performed various upgrades to both the ESXi hosts, and Nakivo always worked flawlessly. It becomes better with each upgrade.

The solution is primarily used for backup and replication of virtual environments based on VMware ESXi located in different company sites. I use Nakivo B&R to provide Disaster Recovery and backups of complex VMware environments. I have multiple datacenters centrally managed and need a solution that's scalable, simple, and also has enterprise-grade features that give me complete control of backups. Initially, the solution was going to be an alternative to a primary backup. Now, it is always a must-have in our environment. There's a simple interface and a lot of options. Installing directly on a NAS appliance is a must.

We are a German reseller and have sold Veeam for a very long time. We never were very happy with that solution and searched for an alternative to Veeam 2 to 3 years ago. With Nakivo, we found a partner who is very cooperative, has a very interesting price point and is even more than an alternative! Now, we likely use Nakivo for customers with virtual servers and who don't want to spend thousands of Euros for a backup solution. Nakivo is perfect for them. We never have heard of a customer who is not happy with it.

We use features like scheduled backups, deduplication, retention, and app-aware mode for some VMs. Our environment has only one Hyper-V server with five Windows Servers plus one Linux VM, which runs a license server, authentification server, active directory, application servers, communication+git server, and the database server with server application for production process management.

We have been using this for six years and it has been one of the applications that I know I can trust. Setup was easy and a breeze to perform. Past the initial setup stage and additional config changes, there was very little need for me to intervene and interact with the product. It just works! Other than the occasional recovery, the system will run quietly without problems and if there is any issue, it will send you a notification (not that I had many). The interface is clean, simple, and easy to use.

We were looking for backup software to permit us to save our big environment in a fast and easy way. After a careful analysis of the market leaders, we chose Nakivo.

Those Virtual Machines are both of production and staging. We are saving around 4 TB in our file systems. Daily, the backup saves more than 900MB from file systems and more than 1 TB from VM.

Our primary use case is disaster recovery in case of a cyber attack, crypto-virus, etc. We are using it to back up virtual machines from a VMware ESXi server, and there are individual jobs for every day. It keeps track of the daily changes and backs up only the changed data, which is much smaller than the whole virtual machine. Nakivo has its own change block tracking. It is available in the free edition of VMware and it's not allowed to be used for backup software, but it's not a problem because Nakivo uses its own method to track changed blocks.

I use it for my VM (Virtual Machine) backups. I logged into it, created myself an account, and then I created my backup jobs. Then I can run the jobs to do the backups when I want. I can schedule it to run when it is convenient — say at 10 o'clock at night — or I can say run it right now, or whatever. It is pretty intuitive in that sense. Pretty easy to set up and use.

We are using this solution for backing up and replicating virtual machines. We have a small environment with two hosts. Both of them are Levono servers with ESXi 6.5 U2 and fifteen virtual machines. All of the VMs are Windows and we have file, SQL, and Exchange servers.

We implemented Nakivo Backup & Replication as a backup system for our customer. It supports their VMware vSphere environment. The environment is made up of one director, one onboard transporter, one direct SAN repository, and for offsite backup, it has one transporter and one SAN direct repository.

Our primary use case is for the backup of several virtual machines. We have deployed it for several customers, as it's a fantastic and cheap backup solution.

I have a small environment with two hosts since most of our services are running in the cloud. We are a cautious group and we keep a copy of our files on-premise, as well as in the cloud. We are using NAKIVO for backing up our file storage and virtual machines.

We have a VMware environment that needed backup and replication. We run NAKIVO on a Synology NAS and replicate to another VMware Server.

We use this product for host servers that need to back up offsite to Amazon AWS. We use it with Hyper-V servers.
