Rating:  - Auto Scripts require constant attention
I have a small company and have been fighting this product for over two years. It is extremeily slow on backup, slows machines to unusable speed for end users and requires that someone monitor it's auto scripts. Every time an auto script is supposed to run it find some excuse not to! It has taken as many as three tries to get it to run an "Auto" script once, and the next time it wants confirmation of something else again! What good is an auto script if you have to confirm USE THIS TAPE 300 times ... Read More

EMC Retrospect Pro ver. 7.5 Upgrade:
I have a home network with a Mac and a couple of PCs. I was looking for a backup solution. I had the "Lite" version of Retrospect included with my NAS. That made me eligible to get the Upgrade of the 7.5 Pro version with 3 licenses. So I figured for under $50 I'd be good. So I got it here at Amazon. Well, it works, sorta. I think my network is OK but sometimes the Mac module doesn't get seen (I'm not a Mac expert it could be my fault). With a little kicking ... Read More
Rating: - Better than it was and no alternative for mixed PC Mac backup

Rating:  - I Finally Gave Up on this Convoluted Bloatware
This product is pretty much the worst piece of software I've ever used. It was constantly complaining that it couldn't connect to the backup server, which required constant intervention. Also, I hated the fact that the backup files were only intelligible to the program itself. I finally gave up and purchased a Seagate USB drive that comes bundled with a great little utility called BounceBack. It works 100 times better than this product.
Rating: - Poor Customer Service
I contacted the vendor for help/assistance in regards to a problem I was having. The Support from the company was lacking. If I had known that I would not received the help I would have looked elsewhere. I do not recommend the vendor.
