Not compatible with Xen Orchestra at time of writing. > > Nakivo has been great for our company. We already used it to recover one of our virtual machines that someone broke by accident :) ----- ### "Don't be shy give Nakivo Backup & Replication a try" — 5.0/5 > **Lee** | *May 15, 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Solid product that offers similar features to the market leaders at a better pricepoint, all backed up by a great support channel. Absolutely fantastic product. > > **Cons**: The product has very little not to like. Every time I think it would be nice to have this or that, its like they read my mind and the feature is coming in the next release. Their development team are very much in tune with real world needs. The product just seems to get better with every iteration. > > It does what we require, we use a multitude of the features and I have to say I have always been impressed, by the ease of use and the quality. Every product requires good suport, the account management team are super responsive everytime I have needed them and the technical support is 2nd to none. ----- ### "Reliable, Cost-Effective Backup That Just Works" — 4.0/5 > **Mark** | *February 27, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Reliable, straightforward, and "cost-effective." Deployment was simple, the interface is clean, and backup jobs are easy to manage. It gives us solid protection without unnecessary complexity. Customer support has been great\! > > **Cons**: I would like to see a better scheduling interface or options. Also, monitoring for Hyper V environment which is the only reason I don't give 5 stars ;-) > > Overall, it’s been a dependable backup solution that does exactly what we need it to do. It provides strong VM protection, reliable restores, and good performance without the overhead or pricing of some larger enterprise platforms. For our environment, it strikes the right balance between capability and simplicity. ----- ### "Nakivo Outstanding Backup Solution with Exceptional Support" — 5.0/5 > **Paul** | *July 2, 2026* | Computer Networking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: One of the biggest advantages is the pricing model. NAKIVO delivers enterprise-level features at a very competitive price, making it an outstanding value compared to other backup solutions we've evaluated. > > **Cons**: There isn't much to dislike. If I had to suggest one improvement, it would be the addition of a more structured certification and training program for administrators. While the documentation and support are excellent, an official certification path would be a great way to help IT professionals validate their expertise. I'd also like to see continued enhancements to reporting customization. Overall, the product has exceeded our expectations. > > Overall, NAKIVO has exceeded our expectations with its performance, reporting capabilities, pricing, and outstanding customer service. I would highly recommend it to any organization looking for a reliable, cost-effective backup solution. ----- ### "interim review" — 4.0/5 > **Caeilte** | *November 4, 2025* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Can be hosted in TrueNas which is useful as a separate VM (jail in BSD) ; so target for backups is separate device with the nakivo hosted on it > > **Cons**: Sometimes error messages dont help such as "Internal error" when a VM back up job fails. It would be more useful if all errors encountered with a vm backup job gave meaningful messages > > so far so good. The Nakivo company are easy to deal with and the license delivery is straightforward. ----- Page: 1 / 20\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/161328/nakivo?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/161328/nakivo) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
