+1. I still use BE Agents to back up my VMs, and the speed did not suffer one bit. I average about 1GB/Min The BE 12.5 Integration with VCB is slick too - might be worth taking a look at. I think the VI Agent license is pretty spendy though :(

It seems as if since we virtualized several of our file servers the backup speeds are ridiculously slow. Does anyone have any advice for backing up VM data?
