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. ----- ### "nuestra experiencia con Nakivo" — 5.0/5 > **Miguel** | *7 February 2025* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Nakivo is a tool that meets our expectations, backups of virtual servers are performed efficiently, saving storage space. Simple implementation.

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 Backup Solution with Great Support Team" — 5.0/5 > **Junaid** | *24 January 2026* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about NAKIVO Backup \& Replication is its ease of use and reliability.

Easy to backup and restore VM's and you can also store your backups on various media such as NAS, USB, AWS (3-2-1) and also enables you to run your OWN backups of your OFFICE 365 mailboxes and One Drive data. > > **Cons**: The product is stable and seldom needs to be supported by the vendor but they MAKE you pay for support on ALL licenses (in retrospect) as soon as you want to buy more licenses\! I went a whole year without support as I was more than confident of the product, only to be told that I have to back-date support if I want any more licenses\! Rather irritating given the stability of the product\!\! > > One of confidence, this software is a strong tool for IT Environments and their costing model is fair too\! VM's are priced per socket, etc. ----- Page: 1 / 20\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/423720/nakivo-backup-and-replication?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/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
