PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

It's just working. I don't have to overcome a bunch of problems for it to work. Install, adjust and you're done.

It has saved my head several times. I was able to restore an entire Vmware ESXi datastore with the machines on it. And this from a "cold standby" copy from the Nakivo Instance, since the active Nakivo instance has also been lost.
The script execution before and after the job is priceless.

The best thing, however, is that the Nakivo server runs on Linux and thus saves expensive Windows licenses and typical Windows headache bugs. Neither Veeam nor Acronis etc. can do that.

I can unreservedly recommend the product to everyone - a backup solution that just works without much attention - and, if you depend on it, restores it without any problems.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

Better handling with the RAM usage on Linux after a job is done.

What features/services would you like to see in future versions of this product?

The ability to reconfigure a repository without having to recreate it.
