From the beginning, I have appreciated how simple and intuitive the software is to use. I practically never needed to read the documentation to perform basic backup or restore operations. The online help for advanced features is very well organized and descriptive. Microsoft 365 and Proxmox support are among the most important of multiple features added over the years. > > **Cons**: - Backup to tape is slower than other available solutions, which is why it is not a viable option for us. - There were a couple of minor glitches, but they weren't significant enough to contact support. > > It is still the solution to be chosen, so I recommend that everyone try it before buying another variant. ----- ### "Good Product, Quick Support" — 5.0/5 > **David** | *14 October 2025* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Works for years without any problem. Support is always reachable and reacts fast. Transporters for many systems are available, great for our structure, where the backup storage is directly connected to a single server and not in the same network as our virtualisation machines. > > **Cons**: Make it easier to restore single files from Linux machines, it does not support direct downloads on the web GUI when source is ext4. > > Easy to install, easy to use, with reliable and fast-reacting support, always friendly and also providing remote sessions. ----- ### "not great, not terrible" — 3.0/5 > **Jakub** | *8 June 2022* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Possibility of backing up all our platfroms is plus for me. > > **Cons**: Any update is pain. There is huge chance that software update wont end well and you have to contact support to help you with remediation. Support is also not best i saw out there. ----- ### "Reliable, Easy-to-Use, and Cost-Effective Backup Solution" — 4.0/5 > **Matteo** | *13 March 2026* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked most about NAKIVO Backup \& Replication is its simplicity and reliability. The interface is clean, easy to navigate, and makes it straightforward to configure backup, replication, and recovery tasks. I also appreciate the flexible deployment options and the ability to manage backups efficiently without adding unnecessary complexity. > > **Cons**: One area that could be improved is the reporting and alerting, which could be a bit more detailed out of the box. In larger environments, the web interface can sometimes feel slightly less responsive than expected, but overall this has not had a major impact on daily operations. > > Overall, my experience with NAKIVO Backup \& Replication has been very positive. It has helped simplify backup management, improve recovery readiness, and provide a dependable solution for protecting critical systems. The product feels mature, practical, and well suited for organizations that want strong backup and disaster recovery capabilities without excessive complexity or cost. ----- ### "IT Manager" — 5.0/5 > **John** | *29 August 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: This product was very easy to setup, the support I got was also quick and no AI bots to talk to. I always prefer working with companies that use live agents. > > **Cons**: I wish it was a none web page for the panel. Not a big deal though. I would also suggest more explanation on certain features. Again, not a deal breaker. > > It's worked well for us, we switched from CloudberryLab (MSP360) and us BackBlaze B2. It took minimal time to setup and was working within 30 mins of starting setup. ----- Page: 1 / 20\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/423720/nakivo-backup-and-replication?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/423720/nakivo-backup-and-replication) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
