General Software Discussion / advice needed.....FirstDefense-ISR, ShadowProtect, ShadowUser, Rollback Rx???
« on: November 17, 2008, 05:44 PM »
Greetings all,
I'm hoping to get a little advice here.
From doing a little research, it looks like the "now discontinued" FirstDefense-ISR is the best of breed.
Is this still available for purchase at any distributors?
If not, what are the "2nd best" alternatives?
I have been using Acronis TrueImage, but would prefer something better/more flexible.
I've read that ShadowProtect is much better when it comes to differential backups,
and that Acronis is unstable for differentials. Is this true?
Rollback Rx looks awesome, but stability? and can you push all of that data off somewhere
on a server or DVD, or is it all locked in a hidden partition on your drive?
(I have a NAS device that I would like to push images/backups onto).
ShadowUser looks interesting, but you only get one "snapshot", and again, can you
push that data off to another location in case the whole system goes down.
Maybe there are even better alternatives???
Cheers!
