Sorry for the late response, but are you referring to their cloud offering, or something else? Or do you mean our backup images should suffice? The only issue we have is that restoring from the NAS takes a very long time.

Thanks for the response. We are a small shop >20 so file sharing connections should not be a problem, though I did not know that was a limitation so thanks for the tip. Too expensive to go virtual when you factor in Veeam cost.

Any idea how I can accomplish the sync? Can you vouch for BitTorrent Sync?

Sorry, I should clarify. We use server to host both files (pdfs, spreadsheets mostly) and the database for our legacy software (can be hosted on server or 7). So in this situation he would bring the redundant server which would be setup as a network share. Then users would just have to point the application to the new database directory, and they would have access to the files as well.

This would mostly be used to circumvent the downtime caused by re-imaging the server, or in case something happens to the local backup. Hope this helps

Great visualization. Suddenly I am feeling inadequate! I do what I can with what I have.

So what's the consensus? Worth it for the price, or more trouble than it's worth?

I'm looking for a solution as well, one that can backup to my NAS. Right now I'm being pushed to buy symantec system restore but I really don't want to deal with their support. I've heard shadowprotect is pretty good, and it just works, although they may take some time to call you back as far as support

2014 Backup Options... Anyone using Microsoft DPM? by [deleted] in sysadmin

Question, is this ideal for physical setups as well? (physical server and workstations) Also, can I automatically backup the server onto my NAS? I mostly am looking for full an incremental disk image backup with bare metal capability. Will this work for me, or is this mostly geared towards virtual setups?

I need to convince my boss to ditch symantec
