On windows we have had the old winworkr client. That client works well for
restore and backup started from the NetWorker server. But the user program
lacks ability to do manual backup to a certain pool. There are more
functions missin acturally, like nsrwatch.

Now EMC has reletively new module for Windows, the NMM. It's even more
cripled, it's not even possible to do manual backup from the client. They
had a perfect opertunity to make a decent client module for Windows and they
blew it.

I have found that the support for NMM is greatly flawed. Therefor I don't
want to use it.
