"The most valuable feature of Altaro VM Backup is its ability to backup and restore various types of data, including Active Directory, application servers, and SQL Server databases."
"We use the latest feature in Altaro called CDP (Continuous Data Protection) to back up our VMs as often as every five minutes. It allows us to make sure no data is accidentally deleted or overwritten."
"It is an excellent product. It is easy to deploy, stable, and fast. Their support is excellent."
"Reverse Delta is Altaro proprietary backup deduplication technology. With Reverse Delta, the latest version of a file is always made available in its entirety, not as a delta file."
"All of the features are fantastic and also the management from Microsoft dealing with multiple machines is great. The whole package is excellent for me."
"The interface is user-friendly and even if our tech isn't onsite, we can work with the owners to confirm that the data will be restored with no issues."
"Nakivo offers direct support through the graphical interface and this is great to have if you need quick help."
"The features that we like the most are the Backup Copy and Active Directory Integration. They have helped us to save a lot of time since we do not have to make the backup copies “by hand”."
"It is easy to set up using the included virtual appliance and also includes agents for most NAS systems."

"Every new version has got some tweaks and improvements in stability and speed."
"The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer."
"Basically, how it works is that you have a single local drive, and then you have a cloud backup. It'd be nice if you could rotate the single local backup drive. As of now, you can't."
"The scalability of the solution is limited."
"Backup speed and comparisons between versions used to be slow on big VMs but that was improved greatly later on."
"To improve Altaro, I would like to see the ability to choose more than one backup location at a time."
"Availability of physical server backup would be an added advantage."
"Stability."
"Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful."
"The product needs to improve backup speed and replication speed."
"Implementing more comprehensive data deduplication and compression techniques could optimize storage utilization and reduce backup times, improving overall efficiency."
"Their product is good and it meets our requirements, however, new features are also most welcome and we never hesitated to try new features."
"There are many features we have not had the opportunity to try, such as Tape Backups, Office 365 backups, and many other things."
"There could be better integration with other solutions, such as Amazon S3."
"We would like to back up File Shares to Amazon S3/Wasabi."
"It would be great if they had a Let's Encrypt integration."
