What are the best aspects of this product?
For a big plus the ability to install directly on the QNAP hardware (and such versions of Nakivo tested).
I had the opportunity to test several solutions for virtual machine backups for the hypervisor Hyper-V 2016 in which Nakivo prevails:
1. Very easy to add hypervisor, trasporter and repository after installing Nakivo solution.
2. I had no problem with making a copy of the virtual machine, with some other solutions, I had to turn it off first to make a copy of the machine.
3. The reproduction of the copy took place very quickly, both on the same machine with the hypervisor as well as recreating in a new place.
4. Faster backup of virtual machines compared to other solutions, it may be due to the installation directly on QNAP, where there was also a repository.
5. Smaller size of virtual machine copy files.
6. The most important plus is the price, which is very attractive for offices, where it is difficult to find financial resources for shopping.
What aspects are problematic or could work better?
The only downside I've noticed (this is a minus only for me) is that the copies of virtual machines are created in several files, a copy of the virtual machine is not a single file, which I can, for example, transfer to an external drive and store on it backup copy, and several files with different names and it is not known which file corresponds to a specific copy of the virtual machine. You can, of course, additionally export a backup in the virtual machine's disk format, but this is an additional step to do.
