Tom, we're using it here across our WAN links to replicate approx 400Gb of Tiff files (for our workflow / imaging system) between 4 servers. It works very well for our requirements, although we did have some fun and games getting it all setup - we use it in a slightly different way to the norm.....
We have offices in 3 sites inthe UK and one in Hong Kong - the link to HK is a 2Mb VPN that we run replication as well as Citrix / print servers over - the UK links are 6Mb minimum..... response times are quite acceptable for our requirements - but they're a little different to the "usual" We scan images into our workflow system in the UK offices and in Hong Kong, and each office has a local "image" server - double take monitors the folder structure on the servers and replicates any changes to temporary folders - these are then replicated to a hub server in our main datacentre and from there they're passed out to the individual sites - all within the 1hour SLA. It's a bit different from the traditional replication for DR which seems to be the main use of the software. We've had some teethiing problems getting it setup - but the support has been superb, and we've been supplied with a couple of hotfixes during the bedding-in process. All in all it's worked very well. Please let me know if you have any questions.
