We performed a comparison between Arcserve UDP and NAKIVO Backup & Replication based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There are many backup options available in this solution. For example, you are able to do backups of servers, email, OST files, and users. This is a complete backup solution which is very good."
"It is very stable."
"The ability to switch between different hardware platforms and utilization tools are some of this solution's most valuable features."
"The interface is very refined, works fine, and is very intuitive most of the time. Scalability is nice. The multi-tenancy feature is very welcome. The integration with Linux works fine too."
"We are satisfied with Arcserve UDP. The most important feature that we use and why we choose this product is the RHA feature."
"The ease of use is the best feature of the product."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that I can by just one click, copy and paste anything that I would want. I do not have to restore the whole virtual machine."
"Our customers are happy with the product’s functionality."
"It uses all the bandwidth available if not limited and backs up entire servers with all data about four times faster than Windows Server Backup and EaseUS TODO Backup."
"We are able to take backups on a regular interval and restore data/VMs as we choose making the process work as advertised."
"The ability to use a variety of cloud providers rather than being tied into one is a huge bonus."
"The implementation of Nakivo made it possible to implement the information security policies currently in force in the company and to meet the statutory requirements in the field of IT security."
"The most important feature besides the easy management of the different backup jobs is the automated e-mail notification functionality."
"The updates are problem-free, so we can keep Nakivo up to date on the server and NAS too."
"Nakivo gives users confidence in knowing that if something happens with their application server, exchange server, or other applications, they can recover it easily and quickly."
"They reply immediately to any query raised from us as a technician or consultant and they know the pulse of the market and keep updating the features in such a big way."
"Licensing can be quite difficult."
"The support could be more knowledgeable and faster."
"Every time I change the disc, I have to do a full backup."
"In the most recent version of premium plus the replication has been removed, and it should re-added to the solution."
"The problem is just reliability. If the promises in the marketing material were realized in real life, it would be the perfect solution, but it's just the reliability issues."
"Arcserve UDP is in the middle range of complexity. The interface can be developed a little bit more to be user-friendly."
"We are looking at scaling up to the cloud and using immutable copies on the cloud. Arcserve UDP 8.0 does have the immutable feature supporting AWS, but I'm looking for multi-cloud support. So, I'm waiting for Arcserve to release that in the next release."
"StorageCraft ShadowProtect can improve by making one console that can control backups of all desktops and servers in one place. Additionally, the recovery process of the backups is very slow and could improve. It's very slow when we went to recover a complete disc but to recover one file is very fast."
"There are many features we have not had the opportunity to try, such as Tape Backups, Office 365 backups, and many other things."
"Their product is good and it meets our requirements, however, new features are also most welcome and we never hesitated to try new features."
"I need no more valuable features for backs-up. I have not yet tried the latest release, however, I have all the features that I need."
"Right now we know that Nakivo has the ability to back up as an incremental process and restore backups across several criteria. However, it would be good if we had the ability to backup a system like PostgreSQL."
"Sometimes, for some VMs and some Windows Server versions, specifically old versions (aka server 12 or older) fail due to the VSS writer error or locking file system."
"Compression and data deduplication are okay, but they could be improved."
"Automatic updates do not work, and every update has to be done manually."
"Updating VM tools on a replicated VM could be better."
