Rating: - * Best backup solution for WIN2000 ... Just recently I have tried out the Veritas Backup Exec NT/2000 Server Edition and I must say that is just great! The features of this program are more than great, since you can customize everything from a tape set to simultaneus using of many backup drives to complicated backup schedules and many more! And you won't miss the right tape anymore due to intellegent tape sets. Very easy to install and use and not to mention all the options you can buy seperately (Oracle backup, Live files, extra clients...) I can just say try the program (trial is free for 60 days) and you'll see what I mean! I can highly recommend it and belive me, I tried many other Backup solutions too!
