"The product is very scalable, robust, has an easy setup with a short-duration deployment and good technical support."
"It can be quickly configured via web pages."
"The ability to use a variety of cloud providers rather than being tied into one is a huge bonus."
"This is a user-friendly solution that has a lot of certifications and documentation for the Microsoft Hyper-V infrastructure."
"We would like to have the opportunity to omit data from being backed up. For example, we have three virtual machines, each with three disks. When running the backup, it will automatically take each disk rather than allowing us to select what data we want backed."
"I would like to have the option of creating a subfolder per job in the backup repository because we had an issue where some files were corrupted and we lost the backup of the majority of the VMs."
"An additional feature that would be appreciated is disaster recovery automation."
"Implementing more comprehensive data deduplication and compression techniques could optimize storage utilization and reduce backup times, improving overall efficiency."
"There are some errors requiring support to correct and bugs and glitches should be addressed."
"Using an independent bootable media to restore full physical machines would enable physical machines that may be serving as Nakivo Director or Transport machines to be reliably restored to service without undue delay, ensuring that an enterprise's local environment remains intact."
"The only thing I could say is maybe some more options for job scheduling are needed."
"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."
"Updating VM Tools on a replicated VM could be better."
