Just did the same thing this week. A few bumps along the way, but I like DPM very much over Symantec BE.
Have finally rid my network of all things Symantec!!. -----Original Message----- From: Tim Vander Kooi [mailto:tvanderk...@expl.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2009 1:14 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Backup Software I switched from BE to DPM. I really like it, but I have a pretty much completely Microsoft infrastructure. If you don't it would not be so great.

What does UltraBac do differently or offer that BE doesn't? _______________________________ Cameron Cooper IT Director - CompTIA A+ Certified Aurico Reports, Inc Phone: 847-890-4021 Fax: 847-255-1896 ccoo...@aurico.com -----Original Message----- From: richardmccl...@aspca.org [mailto:richardmccl...@aspca.org] Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2009 12:00 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Backup Software 1. Please define "better". 2. Seriously, why are you looking away from a product with which you are familiar? 3. Our NYC office uses BE. I was sent a "How to" with a series of screen shots, etc regarding their use of BE. That doc has me clinging even more tightly to UltraBac (which I've been using for perhaps 10+ years)! -------------------------------------- Richard McClary, Systems Administrator ASPCA Knowledge Management 1717 S Philo Rd, Ste 36, Urbana, IL 61802 217-337-9761 http://www.aspca.org "Cameron Cooper" <ccoo...@aurico.com> wrote on 02/04/2009 11:50:48 AM: > Currently we are running Symantec BackUp Exec 12 in our environment , > at one site with removable hard drives and with tapes at another site. > Was wondering if there is another product that is better than BackUp > Exec and see what others thought about them. > > ---_______________________________ > Cameron Cooper > IT Director - CompTIA A+ Certified > Aurico Reports, Inc > Phone: 847-890-4021 Fax: 847-255-1896 > ccoo...@aurico.com > > > > ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
