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 product's deployment process was straightforward."
"The product provides instant and virtual standbys."
"The ROI is very good because of the speed of the backup."
"I like the tool's speed."
"Our customers are happy with the product’s functionality."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that I can by just one click, copy and paste anything that I would want. I do not have to restore the whole virtual machine."
"The backup is the most valuable feature. It also makes storage very easy."
"One of the things that I do like about it is that it has a very good deduplication feature."
"The main advantage from our perspective is the ability to plug this solution into an existing infrastructure on a cheap device and point the backup at the server targets and configure the backup options in a simple menu; linking to a cheap cloud resource for a simple solution for off-site storage."
"Before using Nakivo Backup & Replication, all our data backup processes took a long time and did not optimize the disk space reserved for backup. With the introduction of Nakivo Backup & Replication, saving times have been reduced by almost half (thanks to the use of several simultaneous transporters) and the space occupied has also had a very important reduction."
"It can be quickly configured via web pages."
"This product provides cost-efficient and reliable backups."
"It is affordable."
"Most valuable for DimenXional Cloud is the API provided by Nakivo which allows us to implement the software in all types of solutions."
"Nakivo's backup and replication product has allowed us to implement a disaster recovery solution with a target repository in the cloud."
"Nakivo is an easy-to-use, robust and cost-effective backup solution. I highly recommend it."
"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."
"We could not go into granular details of retrieving backup information."
"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."
"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."
"The solution's reporting could be improved and should provide customized reports."
"One of the biggest drawbacks of Arcserve UDP is that it does not have a single console, making it an area that needs to be considered for improvement."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"Licensing can be quite difficult."
"In the future, it would be nice to have support for Zimbra email, Collabora Office, and the NextCloud content collaboration platform."
"I would love to see BackBlaze B2 implementation in the future, as that would be our preferred cloud destination, but Amazon and Wasabi are both very great choices in the meantime."
"Updating VM tools on a replicated VM could be better."
"When you schedule some jobs, you should be able to see a list of the jobs contained within each. You have to open up the editor to see what is inside. You must click through and edit stuff. Each time, it asks you to save or discard changes. It's very annoying. You only see the name of the scheduled job, and you need to edit it to see what's it's inside."
"In the loading of a backup, choosing what to restore seems to be a lengthy process, but it has always worked in my restore tests."
"An improvement would be to give us more control over the email alerts, with different emails going to different addresses based on a set of rules."
"I would like to see support for backing up from other platforms, such as physical machines."
"Implementing more comprehensive data deduplication and compression techniques could optimize storage utilization and reduce backup times, improving overall efficiency."
