Aptare! Aptare! Aptare! I've been using Symantec's reporting packages as far back as I can remember and have never been impressed. I started using Aptare at my last gig, just recently brought it here, and love it to death. Rarely in my 17 years of doing IT have I ever so highly recommended any

The documentation (manual) is probably one of the worst I've ever seen - full of contradictions, most definately not written by a native English speaker and generally not worth the paper its written on. Do they actually get proof read ? +--

Very poor so far, can't do the same reports as VBR and Symantec doesn't really support it in my opinion Still using VBR for production as OpsCenter Analytics simply isn't good enough Hope you'll vote in my VBR vs OpsCenter poll on connect, if you haven't already Regards Michael 2011/7/29 WALLEB
