Advantages: Supports a wide range of devices and media types Disadvantages: Limited scheduling
scheduler offering the ability to do a full backup of all files on a designated day of the week and optionally to do an incremental one on the other days. I wasn't very impressed with this and felt this option seriously lacked flexibility. The only saving grace it had was that you could specify the user account and password this task would run under to ensure it completed successfully even if someone else was using the PC
Finally, there is Disaster Recovery Preparation. This analyses the PC before recommending exactly what you need to do a full recovery from scratch in the case of total loss of the hard drive or a similar catastrophic failure.

Advantages: Perfect for small businesses, home or otherwise Disadvantages: Not Unix based, suceptible to viruses, crackers, etc
This is a good product for those who wish for pure interoperability between a Windows only network. Somewhat easy to set up, and can be a hassle to keep running.

Advantages: FREE, Not Microsoft, Flexibility, Cost per user, 2 server licences Disadvantages: Limited backup system requiring a third party product.
WOW - Novell have just made this great package absolutely free. You can get it at http://www.ramms.co.uk/novell.htm perfectly legally.

Product Information for "Symantec Backup Exec 10d for Windows Small Business Server Continuous Protection Agent 10.1 Complete package" »
Manufacturer's product description
Helping eliminate backup windows and enabling end users to retrieve previous versions of files without contacting IT, the Continuous Protection Agent works with the Backup Exec Continuous Protection Server to provide continuous disk-based data protection for remote file servers with LAN or WAN connectivity. By providing continuous disk-based protection, it simplifies backups by consolidating data protection to a central server, eliminates the backup window needed to protect each file server, and provides faster restores by ensuring business critical data is immediately accessible. As changes to files are protected continuously, point-in-time snapshots of each file server are captured and protected on the Continuous Protection Server to provide versioning and granular point-in-time recovery of files. End-users can seamlessly retrieve previous versions of files using Backup Exec Retrieve, a simple web-based recovery tool.
