[Networker] NetWorker vs. NetBackup or BackupExec
2010-06-24 12:46:51
We are in the process of upgrading our backup system. A vendor has suggested
we could save a lot of money by switching to NetBackup or BackupExec. I've
been researching lately lot but since I have no direct experience with either
product I'd be interested in anything anyone on the list has to say about it.
Specifically if there are any advantages/disadvantages of one over the other
and compared to NetWorker.
Personally I don't see how we save money since we already have NetWorker
licensed but we will need to spend over 10K on a Disk Backup license in the
upgrade so it may be possible.
Our backup has 17 clients, 1 Solaris 7 and 16 Windows (from 2K to 2K8), one
Exchange Server and on SQL Server. It amounts to about 2.5 TB per week (but
growing).
Thanks for any insight you can give me.
