NAKIVO Backup & Replication
Sparks, Nevada, United States
What it is
NAKIVO Backup & Replication provides backup, replication, failover, backup copies, granular restore, and disaster recovery orchestration for virtual, physical, cloud, and SaaS environments. It supports image-based, application-aware, incremental backup and replication, with up to 1,000 recovery points using GFS rotation. Site Recovery workflows can automate disaster recovery actions across VMware, Hyper-V, Nutanix AHV, and Amazon EC2. Supported workloads also include Proxmox VE, Microsoft 365, Oracle Database, Windows and Linux machines, and NFS/SMB file shares. The product can be deployed as a virtual appliance or installed on a supported machine or NAS device. NAKIVO says physical-machine backups use AES 256-bit encryption; Linux repositories can be password-encrypted, and repository self-healing can verify integrity and repair errors where possible. Active Directory integration and an HTTP API support monitoring and automation integrations. Subscription starts at $2.50 a month per workload; Perpetual starts at $229, paid once per CPU socket. There is no free plan, but a 15-day trial with all features enabled is listed. NFSv3 ACL backup and recovery are not supported.
