I365 was bought by Seagate not Symantec.

They also charged a one-time fee for a number of plug-ins, such as open file manager, sql, oracle and exchange. I do believe they have all inclusive plans now. Contract's up for renewal in September, we'll see what Symantic did to the cost. _____ From: Richard Stovall [mailto:richard.stov...@researchdata.com] Sent: Thursday, May 21, 2009 8:38 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Internet based backup Looks interesting.

No if/but/when... One single service issue in over 5 years as a customer. _____ From: Richard Stovall [mailto:richard.stov...@researchdata.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 20, 2009 12:12 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Internet based backup Does anyone have any recommendations for the software piece of a solution like the one described below. Something that keeps track of the syncing and does at least file level dedupe? Block level would be great, but I havent found a truly affordable product that does it. Thanks, RS From: Oliver Marshall [mailto:oliver.marsh...@g2support.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 20, 2009 11:40 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Internet based backup John, We do hybrid solutions for a few clients with similar requirements. The size itself isnt an issue. We install an onsite backup unit (basically a NAS box running an Intel processor and Windows) and a dedicated ADSL2+ line (24mb down and 2mb up). The first backup is then made and copied to a smaller NAS which we provide. Its picked up by a courier and brought back here where we copy the data to the servers. The offsite feature is then enabled on the onsite backup unit and the next backup happens over the internet. We charge a monthly fee, starting for this kind of service at £200 a month depending on storage requirements (I guess around $300 per month currently). Using standard tech (compression and data delta) the actually data sent over the internet is reduced to a minimum. Im not sure where you are in the states, but Im sure a company can do a similar service to this as its all based on standard tech.

I am afraid that the initial backup (approximately ½ terabyte) would kill our internet connection, though :-/ What I need is something that is 1) low-cost (or at least not going to charge an arm and three legs) 2) secure and 3) redundant (both redundant servers and redundant internet connection.) Anyone got any suggestions??? John-AldrichTile-Tools ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
