When online bookseller Alibris needed to replace its aging backup software, it turned to Veritas NetBackup because of the product’s ease of use and real-time monitoring capabilities. Alibris has consistently found the compression feature of NetBackup cuts its backup storage needs in half and projects that the product’s ease of use will reduce staff time required to administer backup and recovery by 75 percent.
