Two things,

Both of these reports are "out of the box" reports with Aptare that we use all 
the time.  Second, there is a 30 day demo...we used one when we considered 
Aptare.  Just give them a call and let them know you want to demo the product.

We checked out WysDM when we were looking, but the graphics we undecipherable 
and you had to look in too many locations to get what you needed.

I am also curious about this.

We are a datacenter that does hosting of client servers.  In with the hosting 
we offer data backup for our clients.  Currently I have over 75 different 
server/client that I backup. I was looking for two things from a reporter.

1.      A report that will show TBs per month per client/policy

        NOM does make this report but some of the TB fields are negative ??

        BU Visual does this report but it does not pull past history so
I have  to wait 30 days to get a 30 day report

2.      A way to see open backup windows so jobs can be added/moved

        Do not see this option in NOM

        BU Visual does this but the time frame it allows in its report
is too  large (2hr increments) and cannot see specific windows.  



I just left the Aptare web page,  was looking for a 30 day demo of it but guess 
it does not exist.

What else do people use ?

We're looking at possibly purchasing Aptare and are wondering if anybody has 
used it before. It supposedly pulls data "real-time" from the environment, and 
I'm curious as to how it accomplishes this.

http://www.aptare.com/storageconsole_overview.jsp

Currently we have Bocada (http://www.bocada.com/index.php), a base install and 
haven't really started going into it and actually customizing the application 
to suit our needs.

Any input on Aptare would be appreciated. Thanks!

Jason
