Re: Reliable Backup Solution

I've become a big fan of Amanda - it's incredibly reliable, and if
you're comfortable with the command line, it's great. If not, you can
get Zmanda that has a nice web interface. Amanda is free and open
source, Zmanda is incredibly reasonably priced.

> I'm looking for a good replacement for Backup Exec. I've been using Backup Exec for years but it's really been getting on my nerves lately. I can't get a reliable Exchange 2007 backup out of it to save my life and so I'm looking for good alternatives. I need something that can backup Windows Server 2003, 2008 and Linux servers, SQL, Exchange 2007 and VMWare ESX servers. I'm running a mix of x64 and x86 servers so I'll need full support for that as well. Anyone out there using Acronis True Image Echo or Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager or whatever it's called?
