We performed a comparison between NAKIVO Backup & Replication and NetApp AltaVault based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."We are able to take backups on a regular interval and restore data/VMs as we choose making the process work as advertised."
"Backups are very easy to implement and schedule, the product is very useful, and the recovery procedure is very extensive and feature-rich."
"The backups, especially of the incremental type, are really quick (ranging from five to 10 to 45 to 50 minutes depending on the size of the VM)."
"The chat functionality with Nakivo Support in the web interface is very unique and we love it."
"The VM Backup Verification is one of the features I appreciate the most."
"Nakivo has improved our organization largely due to the fact that it is an extremely robust backup system."
"Nakivo offers direct support through the graphical interface and this is great to have if you need quick help."
"The user interface is good, and it's user-friendly. I also like its usability with hyper-convergence products like Nutanix and others in the data infrastructure."
"Being able to move data seamlessly from one-premise to the cloud (Azure). It works great. The backup solution is perfect for us."
"The deduplication engine. Right now, we're at about 10.5 to 11 times deduplication of our backup data."
"You can store backups for a while."
"The most valuable feature is the portability of large archived data. You're able to put things on large on-prem, low-cost storage and then augment that with even lower cost storage in the cloud."
"The flexibility. Being able to virtualize it, port it wherever I like, test my backups, test my DR capabilities whenever I like without impacting anybody."
"It's so easy to work with."
"It's pretty simple. Once you set it, it goes; and then the idea of being able to get it to the cloud very quickly. It's kind of a set-it-forget-it."
"The solution can be used for all Office 365 applications."
"There are many features we have not had the opportunity to try, such as Tape Backups, Office 365 backups, and many other things."
"It would be great if they had a Let's Encrypt integration."
"Log and report creation can be improved."
"I need no more valuable features for backs-up. I have not yet tried the latest release, however, I have all the features that I need."
"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."
"Personally, I would like to have the ability to backup older legacy systems on the new versions as well."
"There are some errors requiring support to correct and bugs and glitches should be addressed."
"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."
"The solution needs faster indexing."
"The initial setup phase of the tool was difficult."
"I would like to see more web support."
"More capacity with the basic model of the AltaVault would probably help out."
"It would be nice if the solution was more complete. Many customers are looking for a single solution or silo that they can manage everything from. It would be nice, instead of having different products, if everything a client needed was in one solution."
"What could be helpful is different user base authentication so then maybe we could allow different customers to point to a single appliance and they only see the backups and things that they have."
"It's a good product, but it's becoming outdated and moving to their other primary architecture."
"I really want to partner it with the SnapCenter. We haven't implemented that yet. We're upgrading all of our stuff to the ONTAP 9, which you had to have."
