Plenty of useful feature and reliable
We use Asigra for backups I have found all the features useful in the solution. I have been using Asigra for approximately two months. The solution is stable. The six people in our IT department are using the solution. The initial setup was a medium difficulty level. Some parts were complex…

Robust data protection has safeguarded mailboxes and disaster recovery for our clients
NAKIVO Backup & Replication has released many updates lately and at this point it works excellently. Needs will always appear, particularly around the AI topic and other things that come out over time. I understand that solutions always have to keep moving forward, but so far I see it as excellent.I give it a nine because nothing is perfect. There are always solutions, and NAKIVO Backup & Replication is a tool that adapts perfectly to certain needs. However, we cannot dismiss that there are powerful solutions on the market that have been around for much longer. I rate it a nine because we can always improve.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"Asigra’s multi-tenancy feature is most valuable as it allows the company to on-sell a private cloud backup and recovery solution to existing customers."
"Flexibility really means a lot for us. Being able to address almost every client backup and recovery requirement means that we have a tremendous amount of confidence as do our partners that Blueshift is going to be able to deploy a solution quickly and efficiently."
"The Asigra product on the whole is a fantastic solution and I would highly recommend this as it delivers everything our business and our subsequent customers required."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"There are two primary improvements of the Asigra platform with the recent version 13.1 SP1: Virtualization: a tremendous variety of data protection solutions for virtual machines, and Cloud-2-Cloud for Office 365, Google, Amazon, etc., making this a full package of data protection platform."
"Smooth integration into customer's environment, interactive UI."
"It allows our backup engineers to build great relationships with customers as they know their data is being protected by best-in-class software."
"The product is very scalable, robust, has an easy setup with a short-duration deployment and good technical support."
"The VM Backup Verification is one of the features I appreciate the most."
"In our daily use of this program, we have no experienced any issues."
"For the most part, I don't have anything I'd change for this small type of environment."
"The simplicity of Nakivo is its best feature; it does exactly what it should, which is to create restorable backups!"
"This amazing software is highly recommended."
"After weeks of working with Veeam support without any success, I can say it was worth every Euro spent since I have a working solution and can sleep better."
"The upgrade process is manual but very simple to do."
 

Cons

"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"They should have 24/7 support for customers in different time zones. They are slow to respond to requests, and I get the impression that the ServiceDesk is overloaded."
"Technical Support: 5/10, Due to different timezones it would always be difficult to get hold of a tech."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"I think the product needs more diversity in Hyper-V."
"They had given a feature of real-time replication which they stopped in NAKIVO. When we wanted to sell, they backed out, and currently, it is not available across platforms."
"While the solution provides mostly what we need, it would be ideal if there were some additional feature capabilities for the API."
"For our usage, we've found the connections to remote shares (like CIFS or NFS) while quite easy to set up are a little bit prone to interruption."
"The interface can be a little clunky at times."
"I would love to see compatibility with KVM Backup."
"We are satisfied with Nakivo, but if anything could be improved, I think it would be more real-time as opposed to email support availability."
"UI could use some upgrades. The UI is basic, but functional.​"
"In models TS-231P/TS-431X you have to run Transporter as VM at ESXi host - which is not simple to do."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
"I advise that this is the best product for medium or small environments according to my cost-benefit analysis."
"This product provides good value for the price."
"The price could be lower."
"Nakivo is cheaper per machine and per backup."
"Talk to the sales department about all of the possibilities, as they will help you to find the best solution for your setup."
"The prices are high."
"Nakivo Backup & Replication also have another great value, which is that it is one of the lowest prices on the market."
"The solution's pricing is adequate for its features and quality."
