Key Features of the
NAKIVO Backup Solution
Fast and Flexible Backups
The NAKIVO solution allows you to create fast incremental backups using native change tracking technologies to copy only the changed blocks of data. Send backups and backup copies to local repositories, public clouds (Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Azure Blob, Wasabi, Lyve Cloud), other S3-compatible storage, tape, NAS, SMB/NFS shares and deduplication appliances.
Tighter Recovery Objectives
Achieve near-zero RTOs and RPOs with instant recovery options tailored to your needs. Instantly boot VMs from backups, restore individual files or application objects and recover physical machines without OS reinstallation. Cross-platform recovery allows you to restore Windows or Linux machines as VMware VMs in seconds or use backup export for broader migration flexibility.
Ransomware Resilience
Protect your backups from ransomware with built-in features like immutable storage, malware scanning and air-gapped media. Use Linux-based repositories, cloud or deduplication appliances for immutability, scan backups for malware before recovery and store copies offline on tape to keep them isolated from threats.
Robust Security Measures
Apply robust security measures with NAKIVO Backup & Replication to safeguard your backups and minimize data loss risk. Use role-based access control to limit user permissions, enable two-factor authentication for secure logins and protect data with end-to-end encryption at source, during transit (network encryption) and at the target repository.
Seamless Administration and Automation
Improve backup performance with built-in automation and management tools. Schedule tasks with the Calendar dashboard, configure automatic verification and automate workflows with job chaining. Optimize bandwidth and reduce backup windows through network acceleration and LAN-free transfers. You can also monitor your VMware infrastructure to improve resource allocation and detect potential issues early.
Reduced Downtime with DR Capabilities
Maintain business continuity with built-in disaster recovery capabilities that support comprehensive DR planning and minimize data loss. Replicate virtual or cloud workloads to a secondary site and instantly power them on during automated failover. Configure DR workflows that include failover, failback, mapping rules and scheduled DR testing using the Site Recovery feature.

FAQ
Does the solution protect mixed environments?
Using NAKIVO Backup & Replication, you can protect the following environments:
How does NAKIVO help me reduce data protection costs?
With NAKIVO, you get multi-platform data protection, IT monitoring and disaster recovery in one solution. Flexible licensing (subscription and perpetual) and 5 editions allow you to stay in control of your budget and pay only for what you need.
The solution also offers various features to reduce storage costs: incremental backups and swap data exclusion help save storage space while log truncation helps optimize disk usage and avoid server failures. You can also choose among multiple supported storage types to ensure that you stay within budget constraints.
Can the solution deliver BaaS to MSP clients?
Yes. You can create up to 100 isolated environments in the multi-tenant mode of the solution. Add local tenants from your own deployment of the NAKIVO solution or remote tenants with standalone licenses of NAKIVO Backup & Replication. View and manage all clients from the centralized MSP Console. Tenants can access their isolated IT environments through the self-service portal to create and manage their own data protection workflows.
Is disaster recovery orchestration available for SMBs?
Yes. You can use the Site Recovery feature for free with the enterprise editions of NAKIVO Backup & Replication. Automatically initiate pre-configured failover processes in case of a disaster or perform automated failback to move your VMs back to the main site with minimal downtime.
Can NAKIVO Backup & Replication protect the data of small businesses from ransomware?
As a cloud backup solution for small businesses, NAKIVO allows you to create the ideal data protection strategy to avoid data loss after a ransomware incident:
- Implement the 3-2-1 rule by creating several backup copies and storing them onsite, offsite in the cloud and on tape.
- Encrypt backup data for end-to-end security. With NAKIVO’s solution, you can apply password-based source-side encryption to ensure that backups are encrypted before sending them to the storage. You can also apply network encryption and backup repository encryption.
- Enable immutability in local Linux-based repositories, NEC HYDRAstor systems or in the cloud (Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Azure Blob or Wasabi).
- Perform a backup malware scan to ensure that your backups are ransomware-free before starting the recovery process.
- Create air-gapped backups by storing data offline on tape.
