Finally have automatic update of clients, not all OS'
There are some improvements on the GUI. You can stay on the library window
now to answer operator questions
Dashboard, and Backup Advisor are plugins - still have to pay
New reports in numbers of inactive files (but not told what they are)
Saveset expiration now available on the group, but not the client (So now
you have client browse & retention, group saveset expiration, and tape
retention)
You can copy groups, and all the clients

Basically, IMHO, 7.4 is more user friendly.

That being said, we have been running 7.4 here for two weeks now.
The upgrade went smooth, and we are now in the process of upgrading
all of our agents. Minor changes in gui.

My understanding is that 7.4 offers a dashboard GUI that's not
available in 7.3.x. Is that correct? What are the big improvements
you have seen in 7.4? I am debating whether to go to 7.4 or 7.3.3.
