NAKIVO Backup & Replication provides you with the ability to enable certain actions before recovery begins and after it has been completed. You can choose to send job run reports, and run local pre- and post job scripts.

Email Notifications

NAKIVO Backup & Replication can send email notifications on job completion status to specified recipients. This feature complements global notification and provides you with the ability to configure notifications on a per-job level. To send email notifications, select Send job reports to and specify one or more email addresses in the text box. The semi-colon character (;) should be used to separate multiple email addresses.
