I currently use Veritas NB for backups on no more than 5 machines. There is 
consideration of expanding this, but there will never be any time in the 
future when we will backup more than 15 machines more likely 6 or 7, half 
of which are critical and backed up frequently.

Veritas is more of a chore then it is nice in this situation. Its ease of 
use and scalability does not show through.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be a better and/or 
cheaper alternative. I think we are currently wasting money and resources.
