We tried DoubleTake for Exchange. But because the DB's where 150Gb and we created about 2Gb in logfiles a day, it did not work in a WAN environment due to the large amount of data that needed to be replicated. (Unless we put a lot of $$ into the WAN.) Therefore we dropped the product.
Reading your e-mail I think you are right, I would not use it in your env. Either.

My manager is interested in purchasing it and I was wondering what you guys think of it, yea or nay. In my enviorment it doesn't seem to make sense except as to file servers. DC's have built in redundancy if you have more than 1 and we have an active/passive exchange2k3 cluster plus with RSG and/or dial tone restore, it doesn't seem to apply here as well. For MS SQL we are using a log shipping solution. So i was just wondering if any one out there had experience with this or a simillar product and how they are using it and if its worth it to get. Thanks a lot.
