Anyone using Backupexec for SBS and/or Backupexec System Recovery for SBS? The system recovery software sounds real good for making images but wanted to know if anyone has actually used it and what they thought?

I have not personally used it. But have 2 customers that use it with some form of problem on a monthly basis. They're currently looking at moving over to something like Acronis True Image Server 9.1

Outside of feedback, why do you ask?

I looking for the best backup solution and looking for the most common one being used out there. Though it does sound like a lot of people actually like the built in backup which I've always thought any of the built in windows backups work great for backing up but poor for restoring.

The built in solution works fine. But I've had dozens of installations where the client insisted on Backup Exec. Both work fine.

Most common backup imaging program I'm seeing is Acronis, at least in the small business space. I tend to combine the native SBS backup with an online backup through Ahsay/iBackup and an occasional archive image using Acronis.
