What is a good backup software for small business?

I am looking for a good backup software for home or small business. Does anyone have any suggestions? I am looking in the 100-200 dollar price range.

the number of machines you? Amanda is an open source backup solution for entrprise, but it has its limits and should be used in conjunction with other software if you have a need to preserve the status data to a Windows platform. Also, amanda who is deninitely oriented environment * nix.

Backup Software is one of those things that generally you do not want to skimp on. It is terribly costly first time until it loses any important file that you can not recover. Three categories: cheap, easy to use and works well. Pick two.

Veritas is a good backup office, but again, I think we are talking about your price range. $ 100-200 usually means a connection license for a single machine.

Another solution is based on backup windows, and savinng compressed backup file to a centralized share, where you can save and restore and from a single tape device.

I would recommend Vision Backup They even have a plug that lets you back up files while they are in use.

I understand that money is an important issue, but how the data that you are saving the value? The reason why I ask this question is that once you lose data, you begin to ask why I did not just buy the biggest?

Here are two options:

1. Depending on the file size, 1 or more external USB 2.0 500 Gig hard drives.
2. A dedicated backup server (computer) with the largest hard drive you can afford, with a DVD burner and Norton Ghost installed.

Expensive, yes! Will you regret? Never !!!!!
