There was one time when we first started using Legato, everything looked
like it was backed up (according to the reports) but when we had to restore
we were not able to. It turned out that for two months the backups ended
with an error. I guess since we just started using Legato back then we did
not know the best way to read the reports and logs.

We use Legato as well. Legato has it's annoyances, but I will have to say if
Networker says it's backed up you CAN get it back.

The backup module for 5.5 was somewhat flakey, but the one for 2000 has been
rock-solid for us. We do periodic ( about 6 per year) restores to our
recovery machine, and have not had one fail.

Cost-wise, I don't know how Legato compares to other solutions.

We use Legato.  It has a backup module for Exchange, which we have used in
anger on occasion, but only on 5.5.  The last time it was used was to
recover a 167GB IS from a hot backup - worked pretty well, but it did take a
few hours ;)

I am just about to start testing their latest backup module for Exchange
2003 before we start our migration.

I havent used Veritas or CA, but Legato is certainly worth a look if you
have the time.

Are there any viable alternatives to Veritas and CA for Windows backup
software? Its that time of year again to renew our licensing or switch to
something else. We are currently using Veritas 8.6 and need to got to 9x if
we plan on moving to Win2K3 and Exch2K3. Is there anything else out there?
