Basically...
7.3.3 is released and 7.4 is in beta. Make your decision from that. <grin> /ALE

Subject: Re: [Networker] Who is using 7.4 now?
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.
